Captivated

Donovan Legacy, Book 1

By: Nora Roberts

Narrated by: Therese Plummer

First in the Donovan Legacy series, Captivated is a spellbinding novel of the ordinary magic found in extraordinary love from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts.

Screenwriter Nash Kirkland is in Monterey, California researching witchcraft for his latest script and finds himself enchanted by Morgana Donovan, who claims she comes from a family of magical practitioners. Skeptical of anything he can’t explain, and wary about trusting his feelings, Nash nevertheless finds his growing desire for Morgana nothing short of supernatural.

Critic reviews

“America’s favorite writer.”—The New Yorker

“You can’t bottle wish fulfillment, but Nora Roberts certainly knows how to put it on the page.”—The New York Times

“Roberts has a warm feel for her characters and an eye for the evocative detail.”—Chicago Tribune

Good to see this review in audible I read it in pr

Good to have this series in audible as I can no longer reprint it was a very good trilogy and so happy to have Threse Plummer Narrate as she is the best of all I've listened to in all of my different books and the story was old though impossible was still very entertaining good job

Narration

Narrator pronounced “Carmel”, the town, like the candy. Also said secretes, when she meant secrets.

If you like witches

It was ok I’m not a fan of these type stories. The narrator was good

Disappointing for a huge Nora Robert’s Fan

From the get go I didn’t like the narration and the story just felt completely flat for me. I almost turned it off more than once, but being a huge Nora Roberts fan for years I figured it would get better.
I was excited to read this trilogy, but I won’t even bother with Book Two.

Loved it!

Another great one by Roberts! Can't wait to listen to the next one in this series!

Touching

There is nothing I disliked about this story and have listened to all 4 stories and enjoyed them all

loved the voice of Morganna

Liked that it was a very different story. Not the usual for Nora Roberts. Was funny, sad, and joyous.

Too slow too predictable

Being a Nora Roberts fan, I had much higher expectation from an almost 8 hours book. Narration was great, I ll search for other books of this voice actor.

So drawn out -no real plot. Just UGH!

Absolutely nothing interesting about this story- could have been finished in 2 chapters. Bewitched was much more fun!

Easy listening during uneasy times.

I have read/listened to many Nora Roberts books before listening to The Donovan Legacy series. Nora Roberts became stronger as a story teller as time progressed.
