About this listen

There are three rules Brooke Sullivan must follow as a new nurse practitioner at a men’s maximum-security prison:

1) Treat all prisoners with respect.

2) Never reveal any personal information.

3) Never EVER become too friendly with the inmates.

But none of the staff at the prison knows Brooke has already broken the rules. Nobody knows about her intimate connection to Shane Nelson, one of the penitentiary’s most notorious and dangerous inmates.

And they certainly don’t know that Shane was Brooke’s high school sweetheart—the star quarterback who is now spending the rest of his life in prison for a series of grisly murders. Or that Brooke's testimony was what put him there.

But Shane knows.

And he will never forget.

Twists and turns and some meh moments

Overall I couldn’t stop listening. So good sign. Lots of good twists. Some that I predicted but wasn’t upset when it came true. I was annoyed by the helpless of Brooke at times - but could also see how it kept the plot moving. I thought the final twist was a little far fetched based on character development. Great narrator.

Nice twist

The book was good !! But there was so much hype about it I thought it would be a crazier twist at the end. Twist was good but it’s missing a little something something. But overall , I am happy I read it. It was a page turner for sure. I liked the narrator. She was good

Good ending

it seemed very laid out and somewhat repetitive but I appreciated the bowtie ending that wrapped the ending. Good performance but made Brooke sound like a tween books.

many twists

I enjoyed thinking I knew what was coming then being steered towards another option. ending was about silly I thought but endings are the hardest part. the extra bit after the end with the boy was great, makes me think there's a sequel coming about him growing up and full circle with the ending to tie it up. would be neat.

Lots of different turns!!

Honestly the reviews for this book aren’t great but I thought the idea of the book looked good! I am surprised but I LOVED this book! This is the first real thriller book I have read and I really relate to the character Brooke. She just couldn’t figure out who to trust… which I think is 100% fair to be a teenager and have someone attempt to kill her and isn’t able to see who it really is! Of course she is confused and when people are manipulating her and trying to frame people…. Of course she doesn’t know who to trust. I loved the whole book! I really thought the whole time that the killer was Tim as well! Crazy! Loved it and recommended it to all my friends!

Good if you’ve got nothing else to read

Story started strong then went off track and less than stellar and did not meet my expectation compared to her other novels
