About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

FROM THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF
ELIZABETH IS MISSING

All Liam ever wanted was to help Cassie reach her full potential; to push her body to new extremes. Exercise, determination, being the optimum versions of themselves together forever. And Liam always knew what was best.

Nothing could break their intense love for one another, not Liam’s obsessive desire for physical perfection or his relentless control of every aspect of Cassie’s life. Until the day he pushes Cassie far beyond her limits, and she walks out of their flat and away from their toxic relationship for good.

Two years on and Cassie is stronger, fitter, healthier than ever before. And then she sees him – Liam – those green eyes, those stirring muscles. Something inside her flips.

But she holds the power now.

It’s Liam’s turn to sweat.

The start was slow but picked up a bit. However the entire book is incredibly dark and disturbing and I’m not sure of the payoff

Very dark and disturbing

my review may be slightly negative as this isn't the genre I usually read/listen to. I thought it was fine, I felt a bit bored in parts and didn't really enjoy the characters.

it was fine

This was a story about personal trainers which focussed obsessively on exercise & nutrition. The characters were unlikeable so it was difficult to engage with the story



Unless you are a personal trainer or serious fitness addict, you will probably be bored with all the details about training & do

Book is fine if you are ‘Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder’ (ARFID) had to research the term AND obsessed with the gym. All characters unpleasant even Cassie who left her controlling boyfriend. No idea why I kept listening- it was a bizarre story!!
Accents were embarrassingly dreadful

Strange fascination with the book

I was excited when this book came out as I liked the premise and was interested in the themes it covered. But I could only last a few chapters. As someone with past body and eating issues it was tone deaf and completely superficial and I’m sure people that have been in controlling relationships would say the same about the hateful, vindictive “heroine” that comes out of one. The narrative’s “chav” voice was just embarrassing.

So bad I couldn’t finish it
