Captured

An Adult Post-Apocalyptic Romance (Ruins of Playa Azul, Book 1)

By: H.R. Savage

Narrated by: Meghan Kelly

I was raised in a world full of more death than life, surrounded by the blood-curdling violence and nauseating stench of zombies. And 20 years after the Outbreak, it doesn’t seem to be changing any time soon.

After a devastating loss rocks my little group of survivors, I’m forced to venture out of my comfort zone in an attempt to find help - straight into the impenetrable walls of El Castillo.

But The Knights don’t take kindly to my mission, and when their leader, Gunner, captures me, everything spirals out of control. My captor suddenly becomes my ally as we’re thrust into a war of Gunner’s own making.

A war that threatens not only his people, but my own.

Note: True to an apocalyptic world, Captured has scenes that may be a trigger to some listeners.

This is book one in a duet and has a mild cliff-hanger.

Terrific Story & Narration🎧 A Fascinating Thrill!

Wow, I enjoyed this audiobook immensely, the story is original and imaginative, it captivated my attention from start from start to end. This is my first book written by H.R. Savage and it definitely will not be my last I enjoyed her writing style and the characters and storylines she created. They are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with. There is great world building and character development. This is a post-apocalyptic romance and us set 20 years after the outbreak and the world forever changed for those who survived. People are forced to hide away from zombies, the dead turned into toxic flesh eating monsters who survive off of the living. Once bitten they too are turned in a mindless monster. But these zombies are not the only monsters on the street there are other human survivors, some who formed an army of bad men who power hungry and take advantage of the innocent, some in the worst of ways. Thea spent the majority of her life in this new post-apocalyptic world, she grew up with her father who kept her safe and other young ones they met along the way. Her father taught her everything she needed to know to survive, she is smart, strong and caring young lady. After a tragic and heartbreaking loss while out searching for antibiotics she selflessly continued the search, setting out to the El Castillo a compound of survivors living in a gated community of homes that were built just before the outbreak. She gets there safely only to be captured by Gunner one of the leaders aka Knights of El Castillo. They do not take kindly to intruders and are skeptical when they hear her story. They escort her back, wind up getting captured by the Moonlighters whose leader has history with Gunner and it is not good. They finally make it back to her group with the medicine and Gunner and his knights see she was telling them the truth all along. Not only that but she proved how much of a badass she really is. I loved how everything played out in this book, the story is cleverly plotted with plenty of drama, angst, action, thrilling suspense, heartfelt and emotional moments and a hot romance. I adored the two lead characters, Thea and Gunner as well as some of the secondary and support characters. I am looking forward to what happens next as their story continues. H.R. Savage, thank you for this great story and thrilling & emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧And for the wonderful narration, H.R. Savage casted the perfect narrator to bring her characters and story to life. Meghan Kelly is a fabulously talented narrator and versatile voice artist. She performs the voices of all the characters, giving each their own distinct voice making it easy to follow along and tell who is who. Her portrayal of each character is spot on, I love how she takes each role and makes it her own, sounding believable and just as I picture them to sound. She sets the perfect tone for the story, captures all the characters emotions and projects them into her performance. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen🎧

Captured

This book started of with some intense action and kept going through the whole thing. Such strong characters and tragic situations that had me crying right along with them. I’m not usually interested in the zombie apocalypse kind of stuff but this book was fantastic and I will definitely be keeping an eye out for more.

Get captured by a great listen

This stoy by H.R Save has it all. Full of twists and turns. Mystery, suspense, love and and horror. I’m not really into Zombies but once I saw who the narrator was I had to get it. Meghan is one of my all time favourites .
Hero is Gunner. Heroine is Thea
This will have glued till the end , with a cliffhanger. You’ll love it

Meghan Kelly performance is great. Her tone for all the characters was great. You know who each character was Her voice is strong, smooth and clear

Great story!

I’m usually not a fan of books with zombies but this book definitely surprised me. Yes, zombies (freshies) were involved but also a love story, a community that has each other’s back, adults taking care of the kids. I loved it!
The narrator did an outstanding job (as always)!

Very enjoyable with lots of thrills.

I thought this had a great plot and story line with great characters. Some were lost and it just about made me crazy to see them die. It was a good romance with thrills, danger and excitement that makes your heart jump.The characters are likable, at times I chuckled and others when my heart skipped a beat. I really enjoyed this and can't wait for the next in this series to come out.

The narrator did a wonderful job with the character voices, there are no background noise, no volume changes, if any breaks were taken I could not tell, there are no background noise, no volume changes just a smooth easy listen that I enjoyed very much. The narrator gives true emotion to the characters, you always know who is talking and what they are feeling. She has a very pleasant voice, the character voices go well with the character. She pauses when it is need and the audio is very even and smooth. I enjoy this narrator and have been listening to her work for awhile now, she never disappoints me always giving me a very entertaining listen of hour of enjoyment.

I thought this was a very good story and really enjoyed it. I really didn't want it to end.
