Whenever there is an erotica prison based book, you can't help but flashback to the cheesy sexploitation films of the 70s, but Hold is not at all cheesy.  It's a gritty, dark, dystopian view of the future, making today's prison system seem like a vacation.I wouldn't call this book romantic, but there is an intensity and something precious about how the relationship develops between the h and H.  It's very much of a here and now book; I didn't get much of a sense of the H/h's personalities outside the extreme prison conditions, hence why 1/2 a star off.  It's understandable and believable that the H would have a 2 dimensional personality in order to survive as long as he did in those conditions, but as a result, there isn't a lot of deep dialogue, but you definitely feel emotion for the h.
