Very good story with lovely narration

Very good storyline, I couldn’t put it down. I loved the characters just a shame they didn’t have a male narrator.

please sack this narrator

Basically not a bad storyline. However, it is totally ruined by the narrator's complete inability to pronounce words correctly. The listener has to try and work out which word the author actually intended . For example, facetious was pronounced "fa-sett-ius" and moniker became "monkeyer".
irritating to say the least.

the complex nature of a woman scorned

Great twists and turns with this story. The grass isn't always greener on the other side. Be careful what you wish for.

More than average female stalker story

Nice book
However, it did drag on for too long. After i had read 80 percent i literally stopped listening and was just waiting for the end
Plus some times i wondered why they didn’t take any action and just continued with empty threats
Anyway a solid 3/5

The betrayal

It isn’t hard to see where this is heading. The husband is awful and shallow and finds himself in thrall to a woman who he knows his wife has an unhappy past with. He pursues this relationship even when in the very early stages she shows an unbalanced mind and obsessive nature. The reader is a bit one dimensional and flat but the story overall was quite enjoyable.

Drawn Out and Boring

I don’t like to be negative about books as I appreciate the effort that goes into creating a story but unfortunately I found this one quite boring. I made it all the way to the end but sadly only really had it as background noise.

Engaging story

I felt that it was well written, albeit a little too long. Loved the narrator's voice although sometimes I was confused about who was talking. It was definitely worth the listen and I'm keen to try another book by this author.
