SPOILER ALERT! THIS REVIEW GIVES AWAY PORTIONS OF THE PLOT OF THIS BOOK. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS REVIEW BEFORE ACTUALLY READING THE BOOK AS THERE ARE SPOILERS INCLUDED!Jennifer Bene is a brand new author for me but she was recommended by a significant number of friends so I wanted to give her Thalia series a try. I'm very glad I did. This is the first book in the Thalia trilogy and, although it's far different from most of the books I usually read, I was really glad I took the chance because I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thalia is an ordinary young woman. She has no college education and has been supporting herself by working a series of long-term temp jobs. But her work is beyond excellent. It's only a matter of time before someone decides to take a chance on hiring her full-time, isn't it? Sure, she's a bit of a loner. She doesn't get included in the lunches, after-work drinks or other social events with her co-workers. She doesn't really have a love life. Her mother is dead, and she is far distanced from her father. However, even though her life is far from perfect, she's still optimistic that she will find the job of her dreams and life will turn around for her.
As her jerk of a boss leaves for the day, he dumps a project on her desk that has to be finished before the next morning. Furious, Thalia fumes and fusses but finally finishes hours later and heads to her car. After her long day, she's drained. When she reaches the elevator, wouldn't you just know it. It doesn't work! Exhausted, she trudges down the flights of stairs to the garage. Just as she reaches the bottom, she's attacked by a man who throws her against the wall and sexually attacks her. She screams and screams, tries to fight back, but to no avail. Not only does he rape her, but he continues to physically, sexually, and verbally assault and humiliate her, from the parking garage to her car and then to his home. The truly demeaning aspect of this whole episode is Thalia's reaction to this man. Despite all the physical and sexual violence, she's turned on and responds to him in a way she's never reacted to another man. She's beyond ashamed, embarrassed, confused. She's bewildered, dazed, and distracted. When the man, who she eventually recognizes as a barely-known acquaintance, finally leaves her alone, she literally collapses in exhaustion.
Her awakening the next morning brings fresh terror as she realizes she's now a prisoner with no way to escape. Over the ensuing days, Thalia learns that she's been taken for a reason, and her life will never again be the same. She's to be "trained" as a slave and sold to the highest bidder. Her captor is mercurial, one moment almost kind and the next crueler than the harshest taskmaster. But Thalia's a fighter and won't give up. The outlook is bleak, her captor cruel, and his partner...well, his partner is a person who gives new meaning to the term "sadist." What can she do? Can she escape and, if so, how? As she learns new aspects of her personality, not all of which she likes, she becomes convinced that her life is over and, in desperation, she becomes more and more defiant and rebellious, not a particularly good thing while you're being held in the hands of two predators. As events spiral out of control for Thalia and she learns she's to be sold in a few days, what can she do to save herself? Can she survive the hell she's been thrust into?
Jennifer Bene is a masterful storyteller. The subject matter is very dark, and I have to admit at first I was a bit concerned that perhaps my friends' suggestions had misdirected me. But the story is riveting and, as dark as some of the book's passages are, there's also a beauty and eroticism to the story. And, of course, there's always hope. The main theme of the book, in my opinion, is that despite the terror, violence, and non-consensual sex, even in her darkest moments, Thalia always maintains hope. I have to say that despite my early reservations about the book, I was captivated by the story and kind of wanted to throw my Kindle across the room at the end. (Hint: It ends in a cliffhanger so you'll definitely want to buy the next two books in the series which, fortunately for all of us, are already published so you don't have to wait for Ms. Bene to write and publish them.)
I would be remiss if I did not make one final comment. This is an ADULT book. It contains very dark, explicit, and non-consensual sexual scenes and explicit language. If you do not enjoy dark erotic romance, particularly that which contains non-consensual and explicit sexual scenes, then PLEASE CAREFULLY consider your purchase before starting this series. PLEASE DON'T BUY ANY BOOK IN A GENRE YOU KNOW YOU WON'T ENJOY AND THEN LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW OF THE BOOK AS IT'S NOT FAIR TO THE AUTHOR! She works hard to provide a quality work product and if you know before you purchase a book that you will object to the subject matter contained therein, you will be doing not only yourself, but the author, an extreme disservice. But if you do enjoy unconventional dark erotic romance, Ms. Bene's entire Thalia series is definitely one I would recommend.
Thanks for reading my review and happy reading!

Security Binds Her A Dark Romance The Thalia Series Book 1 edition by Jennifer Bene Romance eBooks Reviews
Thalia was at work when she was suddenly kidnapped by the security guard. Turns out, that he was only a security guard to get close to her. He takes her and tries to train her as her new master. As times passes by, she becomes more obedient. He is slowly taking control of her body, but can he capture her mind? It is crazy, but he seems to care about her more than just as a trainer. She seems to trust him, as much as she possibly can in a situation like this. What is going to happen as time goes on? Will he be able to capture her will? Is he only here as her trainer? Will the lines blur? Y'all should read this to find out!!!
I have to say this isn't my cup of tea. This book can be dark and be triggering. At first, I really didn't want to read this. In other books, there is consent and safe words. In this book, there really wasn't any. I wasn't sure if I could read how dark this book can turn. But once you get passed these stuff and realize it is part of the plot, the lines kind of blur. You realize this isn't all black and white. It kind of becomes dark and slightly beautiful in a morally questioning way. I found myself slowly falling for this book. I was so captivated and intrigued by these dark events. Even though I hate reading series, I found myself finishing this book and yearning for the next couple of books. I have to read on, I'm so hooked!!!! Despite how dark it is, y'all should just give it a try!!!
I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this book.
This book is absolutely stunning!
It’s dark,no actually it’s pitch black,suspenseful and sinfully sexy.
Naturally when one is kidnapped they would be terrified.
But what happens when the mind knows the danger it’s in but the body is responding so very differently?
Thalia’s mind and body are working against each other and she’s responding not according to her circumstances.
The guard has woken things up in Thalia that she never even knew existed.
I really liked that Thalia with everything she was put through never broke.
She’s feisty and brave and endured and even in the end knowing the consequences that could come of her choices she still chose “the life raft.”
This book is very well written. With a powerful storyline and plot.
Gripping,intense powerful book with strong BDSM interwoven in it.
The scenes are dark but thrilling and so very hot.
The characters are twisted yet intriguing.
I’m very excited about reading the next book.
This is an exceptionally well written and totally engaging novel of a woman trapped in a terrifying situation. The fights and struggles Thalia endures, both physically and mentally, are exciting, believable and relatable. As the story progressed I felt closer and closer to Thalia, and more that once yelled "NO!" right along with her.
There is also a gripping subplot with the man who captured Thalia. He is also in an untenable situation, one in which his decisions are not entirely his own.
Security Binds Her is not a BDSM romance. It is a very strong story in which some of the tools and techniques of BDSM are warped and become a means of torture.
This is the first book of a series, but let me assure you that this is a complete novel. Even thought there are questions I hope to have addressed in the next book, Ms Bene was kind enough and talented enough to bring this book to a satisfying conclusion. Please excuse me now while I hurry to go find book two in this series, Striking a Balance.
