    About this audiobook

    Sometimes love is toxic…

    Bree Dwyer is desperate to escape her husband, take the children and run. But he’s always watching. And she always gets caught. Until her first love, Alfie Jennings, returns to Essex…

    Gangsters Alfie and Vaughn have been out of the game for a while, but a life of crime is one you never forget.

    To get back on top they need serious money, because loyalty and power don’t come for free. One dangerous job and they’ll have the payoff they need. And Alfie isn’t going to let anyone get in the way, least of all a pretty face like Bree.

    It’s time to show Essex what they’re made of. And this time, Alfie and Vaughn aren’t backing down.

    • 4/5
      This was a pretty good book. The suspense I. It had me reading it for hours to see how it would end. It frustrates me that the police never listen to the girls though. And the crap they've endured makes me feel so bad for them and hate Ali more and more.
    • 3/5
      High school seniors Aria, Emily, Spencer, and Hanna barely survived their most recent encounter with A. The police don't believe that the real A is still out there, but the girls know what and who they saw. If they don't track down this final tormentor soon, A will silence them forever.
