Very Engaging

What made the experience of listening to Captive the most enjoyable?

The story draws you in and keeps you wanting to figure out what is going to happen to the people involved. Lyric has a wonderful voice. I might just listen to this more than once.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Captive?

I wouldn't list a single point or two. More of the over all journey. You are with Tori as she makes the, sometimes painful, path to grow. i love how to narrator seems to pick on up this and you can feel the strength of Tori build through out the book.

Which character – as performed by lyric – was your favorite?

Favorite character would have to be the main character, Tori. What was also very enjoyable was that Lyric gave each character their own tone and accent.This really helps someone like me to keep it straight on who is speaking. Something I would have trouble with other wise

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I am not one to normally have a external reaction to something I am reading. Is very internal for me. That being said I found many of characters being someone I could care about. I think this is partly do to the writing as well as to the narration.

Any additional comments?

A very enjoyable book. I am looking for to the next installment and hope the same narrator is involve. Would mess up my head space to get a new voice for these characters

Story of strength

this story is a story of a woman put in a hellish environment and asked to live and be happy. I think it's a great story and i really admire the characters and i wish to take the lessons i learned and put them in to my own light.

GOOD BOOK!

I enjoyed this book. This book was full of action, suspense, and romance. The narration was good and kept you entertained. This author did a good job with the characters and plot. This was my first book by this author but definitely will not be my last. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

My dark obsession

I seem to have an affinity for stories with dark overtones. I am definitely a fan of Biker MCs. This one was just as dark as some of the rest. Tori has been through it all and this story may contain triggers for some. It contains violence, rape, and vengeance.

We go through this dark adventure with Tori who has been damaged by everything she has been subjected to. It is a hard listen for those who cannot handle the darkness of all that Tori has experienced in her life. But this story is told in such a way that you cannot help but be engrossed throughout the whole book.

I want to say I enjoyed reading it. I don't think that's a proper word for what I felt as I read/listened to this novel. I would say I was more enthralled with the story. Much like those TV movies you watch on Lifetime where the main character has been through so much. It is difficult to sit through but you cannot help but wonder what is going to happen next.

I do not think I have heard this narrator, Lyric, before. However, even though I think her voice was great for Tori that portrayed the vulnerability of her youth as well as a little bit of strength. I do believe that this story would have been even better with both Lyric and a male narrator. At any rate, it did not detract from the story and is a great listen.

ComPLETELY different take on a Biker MC.

I did NOT see this one coming. Usually I melt FOR the Biker MC members but, uh, nooooo. What an offbeat concept Samantha Jacobey has come up with! Dark and twisted and Tori has one hard road ahead of her to untangle herself from the Dragons. Well written and consuming story.

First time listen to Lyric’s narration. She sounded too innocent for the severity of Tori's character. I’m not saying she did a poor job, just that I didn’t fit her voice well to the character.

👍🏻👍🏻 Worth two thumbs for the originality, at least!
