À propos de cet audio

When Freya falls for the manipulative Kane, her life changes beyond her wildest imagination. When the luxurious life she craves gradually becomes intolerable she realises escape is out of reach. Her life has changed, and so has she. She knows that when she least expects it, he will return and make good his promise to exact revenge and ensure she pays the price he felt he is owed.

Can Freya ever be free?

Who ever knew love could be so dangerous?

Loved this book! The narrator was amazing and the story was really heartbreaking but a great ending!

Amazing book, highly recommend reading it. Great author, well told story. It’s really sad to know that women get abused this way.

Needs an editor

Could have benefited from a trim. It was long and started to feel very messy after a while. I didn't finish it.

Would have preferred the story told the story instead of the asides where the main character talks to the reader.

Largely A Troubling Testimonial.. That Falls Apart

This book starts like a "journaling" assignment from a therapist counseling a survivor of an abusive relationship: urging her to write down her experiences. Strikingly relatable girl-next-door 'Freya' tells a sadly familiar story: starting with "swept-off-her-feet" romance/seduction and collapsing into red-flags -> jealousy/possessiveness/isolation -> physical/sexual abuse. Unfortunately, Patricia Dixon's initially realistic antagonist 'Kane' is revealed to be a cartoonishly evil scumbag (involved in car theft rings, drug dealing, international money laundering, and underground sex clubs/snuff film production). The final third of 'Over My Shoulder' - after Freya finally leaves - is ludicrously silly.. turning into an "escape the kidnappers" story.
Yes, Freya's harrowing personal tale devolves into over-the-top obvious fiction - but still has some disturbingly true-to-life elements (Trigger Warnings for readers who have survived abuse are warranted).

Reader Helen MacFarlane's performance is genuinely praiseworthy (her Manchester accent for Freya is absolutely spot-on, for example).. but Whole Story/QUEST Audio/W.F.Howes sound editors do a terrible job splicing re-recorded segments into the overall product - sound levels aren't matched *at all*.
The audiobook isn't "bad" per se, but sounds somewhat lazily thrown together.

Factoring in the subpar sound quality, this recording rates a mere 4.5 out of 10 stars. It was a reasonable download as a 'Plus' selection (included with my membership).. but spending a Credit on it would be indefensible.
