Publisher's summary

You thought you had escaped him. Until he proposed to your daughter.

"There’s someone I want you to meet," Belle says, as a man draws up to her side. He’s tall with dark hair and stubble on his square jaw. He’s not exactly smiling, but the corner of his mouth curls upwards as he slides his hand around my daughter’s waist.

I grab my husband’s arm to steady myself, as the room spins around me.

I stare into the man’s eyes–jet black. Nothing and everything hidden behind them.

Fear prickles my skin as I remember what he did.

How I only just escaped.

All the lies I’ve had to tell since.

"I want you to meet Jack," Belle says, brimming with excitement. "He’s my fiancé." She rests her head on his shoulder. "Isn’t it exciting? We’re engaged!"

Fear hammers in my chest. I have to stop this.

My daughter’s life is in danger, and it’s all because of me.…
A totally gripping psychological thriller from an Amazon No. 1 best seller that will take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions and have you gasping at the twists.

Kept me engaged

An Enjoyable listen. I found myself rooting for the main characters. And the loosens were tied up at the end.

Such great twists at the end

Loved every minute of this book but the twist at the end. And then the double twist in the epilogue made me gasp!! . Such A fun easy summer read

Great read or listen!

Very much enjoyed this book and will seek out the author again in the future.

Twisty!

Well written characters and subtle, intriguing hints to unpredictable plot twists. Great narration. Well played.

Whoa 😮

Incredible!

Fantastic story, convincingly strong narration and an extremely entertaining ending!! Everything you could want in a good listen. If you’re on the fence, just get it! Well worth the credit!!!

Twisty

This audiobook was very interesting and kept me interested all the way through. Good read.

Somewhat Contrived

I don’t want to listen to books which are too short, I.e,, four and five hours. This, however, was just a little too long. The goodies were really good and the baddies were really bad. There were twists that I didn’t foresee which I enjoyed. There was also another interesting twist at the end, which I again did not foresee.
I dinged the performance, because the narrator had the unfortunate habit of lowering the voice to a whisper to portray a man speaking. Unfortunately, you couldn’t hear so you turned up the volume and then, when normal speaking began it was too loud. I missed several sentences because of this whispering . It was very annoying having to back up several times to hear what had been said.
Overall, it held my interest, and I am beginning to like this author.

Loved this!!

First time reading this author. Great story, on edge of your seat the entire page turning.

slow to engage me

Must admit it was a slow go, almost dnf, but stuck it out. Kinda predictable, some of the wrapping up I had guessed, but very intense towards the end.
