Publisher's summary

From New York Times best seller Alessandra Torre....

I have three months to write the last book of my life. Three months to confess the details of that day, and how it changed everything for me.

My name is Helena Ross. I've written 15 romance novels, 10 of which have become international best sellers. But this one isn't a romance, no happily ever after in place. This novel holds only the truth, which I have run away from for four years. The truth, which I have hidden from the police, from my loved ones, from the world.

This final book?

It's my confession.

It was a OKAY read

I cant say I disliked the book... My motivation to keep reading was fjnding out what she lied about.... I did enjoy the flow of the story but it kind of fell flat towards the end "for me" .... But overall OK book... not bad... but not great

Wow

This story kept me engrossed the whole way through. The production was terrible, but the story was good enough that I could ignore the oddly edited dropped in words/sentences etc. The narrator herself did a great job.

Heart-wrenching, heartwarming

This is one of the most heart-wrenching, and heart warming books I've read in a long time. The characters grow and change through the story, battling regrets, loss, fear, loneliness. There's suspense in the big bad secret Helena holds regarding her dead husband and missing child, the grief she battles through and how it's manifested in her life. This cold, seemingly heartless but successful author with her quirks and demanding lists, is imperfect in a way that makes you waffle between feeling for her and also kind of disliking her while also having a definite affection for her. It's a feat most authors, in my opinion, struggle to achieve. Their characters either too perfect, or too evil, and not many right in the middle.

Great story. Bad recording and narration.

Loved this story! ...but the recording was awful and the narration was quite annoying at times.
