About this listen

Victoria Barnett has it all: a great career as a nurse practitioner, a handsome and loving husband, a beautiful home in the suburbs, and a plan to fill it with children. Life is perfect—or so it seems. Then she’s in a terrible accident...and everything falls apart. Now Victoria is unable to walk. She can’t feed or dress herself. She can’t even speak. She is confined to the top floor of her house with 24-hour care.

Sylvia Robinson is hired by Victoria’s husband to help care for her. But it turns out Victoria isn’t as impaired as Sylvia was led to believe. There’s a story Victoria desperately wants to tell...if only she could get the words out. Then Sylvia discovers Victoria’s diary hidden away in a drawer. And what’s inside is shocking.

Expected more

The narration wasn’t wonderful I’m afraid and the writing felt immature for the majority of the story. There were twists and turns but they were predictable and often unbelievable to the story which gave the rest less credibility. Really disappointed with the read given the previous ratings and reviews. Just my opinion! Sorry!

The Twists!!!

I liked the narration, didn't like how both women just couldn't see what was right in front of them, almost like they were sitting ducks for whatever was going to happen to them, all because a man is rich and handsome 🥲🥲🥲
