Summary

On a day like any other, Allyn Sommers went off to work, not knowing that her life was about to be irrevocably and horrifically altered. 

Three years later, Allyn is still a prisoner in her own home, held captive by harrowing fear. Broken and damaged, Allyn seeks help from someone that fate brought her. 

Dr. Dominic Shriver is a psychiatrist who’s drawn to difficult cases. He must push past his own personal battles to help Allyn fight her monsters and nightmares. Is Dr. Shriver the answer to her healing? Can Allyn overcome the broken?

Grab this life full story

This is such a fantastic story. Both the author and narrator will grab you from the start to finish . There are so many layers you can’t keep up with the twists and turns. There are some scenes in the story that will have you gasping

It’s about Allyn that is trapped inside a hell that she doesn’t think she can escape . There are wicked men that keep her trapped in her ideas
Grab it and see how she fairs out

Meghan Kelly is a gem with her voice . She brings this story to life. She makes you live right in the story

Such an amazing book

This book is written so very well. Margaret, you have written this story perfectly, it’s raw, it’s emotional and it’s an experience that will stay with me forever. It shows the true strength that we have inside us as survivors.
Meghan, just wow....I have cried so much throughout this book and it’s your pure talent to give yourself to these characters that has made this book so good. I’m amazed at your talent. I wish there was more stars for this book. Highly recommend.

Emotional

This book took me on a rollercoaster of so many different emotions. It grabbed my attention on the very first page and held it all the way until the last page. While the romance between Allyn and Dominic was a bit on the taboo side, I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is open minded and loves a well written story. Meghan Kelly did a fantastic job of bringing both Allyn and Dominic to life with all the various emotions that came through in her voice. I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Just ”WOW”, I cried a lot!

It`s about Aileen who is a survival after a terrible brutal rape. To find the right person who can help you start living again.

The narrator Meghan Kelly - perfekt voice for this story.

Margaret McHeyzer is a new author to me and I`m looking forward to listen/read more from her.

A great book

~I received a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review~

Allyn is a normal young girl, working in a shop when darkness moves into her life. She’s attacked, molested, sexual abused, beaten almost to dead and left with several scars, broken bones and other sever damages and left to die, but against all odds she survives - but to what life?

Allyn stays inside her home for the next couple of years without ever leaving the house. Therapy doesn’t help her until she hear about Dominic Shriver, a psychiatrist that helps abused individuals learn to live again. He starts to help her, step by step - and slowly he gets her out of her homemade prison. And of course they fall in love.

It’s a beautiful, dark well-written story, and I really loved Dominic for his patience and thoughtfulness. He’s definitely one of a kind!!! Even though Allyns trouble isn’t over Dominic never stops being there for her.

I really loved this book and it’s slow but steady process. And the narrator did a great job too. I will definitely look into more audiobooks by both!

Enjoy your reading/listening!!!

A wonderful audiobook

This book has a lot of emotion. It grabbed my attention and didn’t let go. I was drawn back to it when if I had something to do and turn it off. I wanted to find out what would happen. I really like the cover too. I appreciate that. Narration was great as well! Two thumbs up!
