Out of the Shadows

My Life Inside the Wild World of Hunter Biden

De: Lunden Roberts

Narrado por: Megan Conrad

The tell-all memoir of Lunden Roberts's tumultuous relationship with Hunter Biden.

He was sitting there wearing nothing but parrot boxer briefs, organizing his pipes on his Rosemont Seneca desk. I was sitting in Barack Obama's actual chair from the Senate floor. I took another look at Hunter - this kind, intense, and startlingly transparent man - and thought, "this is definitely a guy I want to get to know better.”

That was the first time Lunden Roberts met Hunter Biden. She had moved to DC from Arkansas in an impulsive decision to apply for a grad program. Hunter radiated the “live-for-the-moment” energy she sought. What followed from that first meeting was a wild journey that would come to define Lunden’s young life in ways she never could have anticipated. Out of the Shadows chronicles that rollercoaster ride of a relationship, touching on the drug cook working in Rosemont Seneca's kitchen, strip clubs where Hunter might try the pole himself, protecting him from would-be terrorists in New York City, the night she grabbed two guns and was certain she would have to fatally shoot a crazed MMA fighter, and dozens of other stories that make the laptop debacle seem routine.

Lunden is finally ready to step into the light and tell her story. In her brave and honest memoir, she recounts the chaos, the broken trust, and ultimately the incredible love she found mothering and protecting the long-unacknowledged grandchild of the sitting President of the United States.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Raw and unfiltered."—Kent Heckenlively, JD, New York Times bestselling author of Plague of Corruption, The King of Italy, and Twilight of the Shadow Government

Good listen but a bit too long

I thought the book overall was good but could do without the all the different voices the person doing the reading did for each character in the story.

A Testament to Resilience and Strength

Lunden Roberts' book is a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of an extraordinary woman. Her story is a reminder that most people—especially those who criticize from behind a keyboard—couldn't endure even half of what she has faced in recent years. Lunden's bravery and strength shine through every page, revealing how the trauma she's experienced has only made her stronger. This book is not just a source of inspiration but also a precious gift to her beautiful daughter, Navy. A truly uplifting read that highlights the power of perseverance and love.

Just Olay

While the author is justified in her frustration with the Biden family and her desire for Hunter to step up and build a relationship with their daughter, her portrayal of their past relationship feels immature and one-sided, like a teenager seeking validation from someone who isn't equally invested. Although the book ends on a seemingly positive note, her recent podcast appearances suggest otherwise. Despite these criticisms, I found the book interesting and glad I listened to it.

It’s raw and true

Hunter is an entitled asshole who uses his last name as barter. Screws his brother’s widow! Who does that? And ignores his child

A Masterclass on motherhood, strength and kindness

I bought this book curious about the drama involved. I am so surprised by Lundin’s story, her kindness and how having a child brings out bravery, love and hope. What a great book! I am so happy she wrote it! The end surprised me. I hope Navy grows healthy, happy and always loved.

it was awful.

Everything from the "plot" / story to her voice! You need another someone else to read it. I paid for it and can't finish it. she makes herself seem very ignorant. noy a smart girl.

Such a Phoney!

This book was such a joke. We are supposed to forget that Lundon Roberts was a stripper, drug abuser, and complacent with all of Hunter’s activities. We are supposed to believe that she was his “girlfriend” and not just a booty call, along with her stripper friends. It was “shocking” to Lunden that Hunter was sleeping with her friends. This book and story is not to be taken seriously. Count how many times she writes “we just laughed”, “laughing”, or “laughed until our sides hurt”! I’m mad at myself for wasting my time on such a ridiculous story!

The story from a opportunist

It's just so obvious that this woman is nothing more than a gold digging opportunist who purposely took advantage of a situation to enrich herself. She saw the name "Biden" and saw a meal ticket. I pretty much guarantee if the drug addict had not been famous and connected then she wouldn't have "accidentally" got knocked up. This book is so cringe I cannot even bring myself to finish it. Listening to this person talk makes me want to dry heave. Awful book and majorly regret wasting the money!

Some of her facts are incorrect

I found at least two problems in her story. She snidely remarks that President Biden became involved with someone else's wife-actually Jill was separated from her first husband when they were set up on a blind date by his brother. Then she claims Biden kept campaigning for the Senate seat after his first wife's death. He had already won the election and was in DC setting up his office with his sister, Val, when the accident occurred on December 18. These inaccuracies seem to try to put a bad light on the President and Dr. Biden. Get the facts straight!

The author became pregnant by 2 addicts. You might think that after her experience with Hunter, she might have learned not to repeat the experience.
