There is only one person on earth who ever mattered to Geris Jackson and that one person is her best friend Kyra Summers. When Kyra is kidnapped, Geris fears nobody will believe her tale about the giants with the glowing blue eyes who snatched her best friend away, so she sets out to find Kyra herself. Suffering disappointment after disappointment, Geris begins to give up hope. She gets the surprise of a lifetime when, one rainy night, one of the giants who stole her best friend hunts her down and claims her for his own.

SEIZED is actually installment 1.5 in the series and covers the Trek Mi Q'an time frame that runs concurrent with THE EMPRESS' NEW CLOTHES and finishes up before Rem goes nee'ka hunting in NO MERCY.

disapointed, thought there would be more of a story, waste of money won't be buying any more of her books, too short, did the author become bored with this series, almost an after thought.

The second part of Jaid Black's Trek Mi Q'an series is centered on Geris and Dak's relationship. If you've read The Empress' New Clothes, then you would know that Dak got one look at the black beauty and knew that she was his Sacred Mate and brought her to the planet of Tryston where she had to adjust to the aforementioned planet's rather unconventional sexual lifestyle and lack of inhibitions. Well... in Seized, we get to read about Dak and Geris's erotic couplings and how each one has to compromise with each other's attitudes and customs. Dak expects his sacred mate to behave in a submissive nature while Geris finds it difficult to shatter all of her inhibitions and forget about the feministic thoughts that she'd learned on earth. There are some smolderingly erotic moments throughout the book...

I like that the reader gets the opportunity to know more about Geris and Dak. Geris is a great character. I also like Dak -- I actually like him better than Zor from Empress. I liked the interracial romance between the protagonists -- though skin color and race aren't issues in planet Tryston. Jaid Black's scenes are wonderfully explicit, deliciously descriptive. My biggest complaint about this novel is that it is too short. It's more of a novella. I also noticed that Black repeated some of the scenes from Empress, but this time from Geris and Dak's point of view. All in all, this is a great second part of the Trek Mi Q'an series and I look forward to reading more. Jaid Black has satisfied me once again with this delectable treat.

This novel is surprisingly short for the price. It's only 160 pages and it's not small type. This novel is a sequel to The Empress' New Clothes and can't really be read without it. Certain parts of that novel are repeated in this one. I liked Geris and Dak. I wish that their romance had a greater part in this novel. For some reason, the author chose to put in segments about other characters who I can only assume will be featured in other novels. During these times, the main characters are not even mentioned.
Also, if you're in favor of complete monogamy from your characters as I am, this isn't the book for you. I found the love scenes to be rather more a description of sex than love making. I didn't find it to be nearly sensual or stimulating enough. And here again, I don't think the main couple was focused on enough. I can only recall one love scene that was properly described between the two of them.

What a waste of paper. How dare someone write such trash, and pawn it off as a novel. This story is so completely stupid, I am embarrassed for the author. I was fooled by some of the other reviews. I am embarrassed for those reviewers as well. How could anyone read this book. The author seriously needs some psychological help. The book contains foul action after foul action. I was hoping for a little bit of a story. Erotica can be tasteful. As a matter of fact, the more tasteful it is the more able the reader is to relate to the actions. This was purely in poor taste. Don't waste your money on this one.

Geris Jackson sizzling romance starts off where Kyra Summers(The Empress'New Clothes)ends. From the moment Geris sees the tall gorgeous giant of a alien named Dak the sexually attraction is instant and fast. She doesn't want to be drawn to him but she is. No matter how she fights and argues with Dak he's love for her is strong and unyielding. He wants to take Geris to his home planet, but Geris is against it. It doesn't matter she loves the pleasure he brings to her body she has no clue what is waiting for her on his planet and truly she doesn't want to find out. She agrees to go only after Dak tells her he can reunite her with her bestfriend Kyra.

The journey Geris and Dak go through is full of sexaully experiences that would make most people blush. If you aren't into reading about detailed sex scenes this book isn't for you. But if you are then buy your copy today.

I found the book well-written and very entertaining. You never knew what kinky sexual pleasure Geris would experience next with her blond-hair alien Dak.

It's a steamy page turner! Keep the water close by you will need it after reading this book.

Let's see where do I begin? Ok - I liked Dak very much - he's the strong and sensitive type - very dedicated to the one he loves. Geris is a strong woman and thankfully she was not represented as a generalised version of a black woman as some authors like to do... but she was strong and intelligent but a little mean at times but hey, what do you expect from a woman who's been kidnapped by a giant and taken to another planet? I guess all in all she handled it well - seeing as she had noone or nothing on earth to stay for anyways.

BUT (there's always a but) I had some issues with some of the sexual encounters depicted throughout the book. I know, I know its erotica and a fantasy erotica at that, but the way the women were used made me take pause. It just seemed like a sex fest where the women were there to serve the men and take whatever sexual depravity was dished out to them... what little story there was was interesting but sometimes the scenes seemed to jump from one scenario to the next leaving me feeling a little disoriented - making me go back to the last page to ensure I didn't miss a page or something!

I would have liked to give it 4 stars but those who are looking for a great story interspersed with interesting love scenes would agree that 3 stars is better for a goodish story with out there sex scenes.

Hope this helped!

NOTE: SEIZED should not be read without first reading THE EMPRESS' NEW CLOTHES (book 1, Trek Mi Q'an series)

In this long awaited book, Black tells the story of King Dak Q'an Tal and Geris Jackson. Picking up where we last left her in EMPRESS, Geris is standing in a parking lot alone after two 7 feet tall men abduct her best friend. Three years later, Geris is still searching for Kyra. She is accosted in Vegas by one of the men that snatched Kyra. Turns out Kyra has been transported to another planet, where she's married one of her abductors. The other kidnapper, the one standing before Geris today, is Kyra's brother-in-law. He also declares himself to be Geris's sacred mate.

Readers of SEIZED will find themselves firmly enmeshed in Black's warrior world. Old friends are revisited as Dak and Geris's relationship unfolds. Tongue-in-cheek humor and classic over-the-top male behavior keep the tale brisk. While I did find creatures such as the pugmuffs and rustians to be a bit excessive, I enjoyed this story. Though containing no big surprises, this book should be read by Trek Mi Q'an fans who want to round out the series.

Geris and Dak heat up the pages and had me holding my sides to try to prevent my internal organs from bursting out from laughing so hard... I mean, buttheads and Rustians, plus Geris herself being a very jealous - and extremely vocal with it - lady who does NOT take trash from anyone, not even Dak. Steamy sex and loads of laughter as the whole gang from "The Empress' New Clothes" strikes again. Great imagination on the part of Jaid Black to create the world Trek Mi Q'an.

part two or(1.5) as jaid calls it. another winner please get this book in both formats please.
after the dissaperance of her friend over three yrs ago. geris as been looking for her. well she has found her and someone else her sacred mate.
i laughed and smiled at geris sass, you will love it, it brings back old friend and new, you'll love the creature rustians.
