About this listen

When Cora attends her sister's birthday party, she expects at most a hangover or a walk of shame. She doesn't anticipate a stolen wallet, leaving her stranded and dependent on Dean—her arch nemesis and ultimate thorn in her side.

And she really doesn't anticipate waking up in shackles in a madman's basement.

To make matters worse, Dean shares the space in his own set of chains.

After fifteen years of teasing, insults, and practical jokes, the ultimate joke seems to be on them. The two people who always thought they'd end up killing each other must now work together if they want to survive.

But Cora and Dean have no idea their abductor has a plan for them. A plan that will alter the course of their relationship, blur the line between hate and love, and shackle them together with far more than just chains.

Contains mature themes.

I shouldn’t have read this book, it’s beautiful beyond words but it open my own traumas and I feel hurted and lost now! I went through something very similar to this character and I just know now I shouldn’t have read it.

Amazingly sad.

OMG! Wasn’t prepared for how good this book would be! The story of trauma and love was so beautifully written and performed! Literally broke my heart! Finished audio book in less than a day! Left me wanting more reads of this calibre and spice!

Still beating???? Think my heart stopped!!!

Woah. I didn’t expect this book to be that emotional.

I’m a bit disappointed with the audiobook, I have been listening and reading it at the same time and lots of words/ sentences were missing, words were changed. It really bothers me. I’m glad I had the ebook at the same time, Otherwise, I’d have been a bit confused at certain stages of the book with whole sentences missing.

But overall, the story was just woah and so realistic. The author described perfectly depression, pdst, trauma etc. Please make sure to read the TWs before reading it, as this book is a bit heavy on them.

Cora and Dean went through hell together and came out changed people. It is a story of trying to find light at the end of the tunnel and of following your heart when all else seems lost. I really think this story shows the worst of some humans but also shows how after facing the worst how we can pull through. Not the same, not unbroken but with your heart still beating.

Soulful and Shocking….

Wow, the first two thirds of this book were absolutely gripping, after that it was a will they won't they end up together, but in your heart you know they will.

Cora and her sister's finance, Dean, who she loves to hate, are kidnapped together and made to do unspeakable things by their captor. They resolve their issues with each other during their captivity as they bond over the situation they find themselves in.

Once they are free, life goes back to 'normal', except for Cora and Dean, life will never be normal again. The dynamic of their relationship has massively changed and now they have to navigate carefully around this new bond whilst trying not to hurt their family in the process.

I found the ending a bit odd, but figured the author is lining up the premise for their next book(s).

The performance of the dual narration was excellent. You could feel the emotion and angst pouring out of them as they relayed the story to the listener, bringing it to life.

Definitely a book I will recommend!

Gripping!

Lots of emotional triggers, not easy to listen to but it’s good. The female narrator was great.

This was good but very heavy!

It starts off very intense and as it goes on the tears come. A hard and emotional story.

Emotional 😭

The story was gripping and narration brilliant. Would thoroughly recommend this book. Second book of this author and both have been fantastic. Recommend reading Lotus after this book

Fantastic book!

I was unable to stop listening to this title. I was addicted from chapter 1 until the very last chapter.

Captivating

A beautifully written love story with characters so rich that you feel every arch in their journey as if it were your own. The trauma although laid bare does not disturb but instead binds the reader to them. Leaving you willing them to survive and thrive. Both narrators provide a rich and passionate depth to Cora and Dean that sweeps you up and carves a place in your soul for them. I loved every second of this audio book and you will too.

Beautiful Unique Story
