About this listen

Jenna is a victim of an attack on her college campus. After barely escaping, she manages to make her way to campus security. With the help of the security guard, the local police are called, but she soon learns no one will help her case, and the police and the college administration dismiss her accusation, leaving her feeling empty.

Tired of the whispers and looks from her classmates and professors, she decides to take charge of the situation. Tired of being a victim, she's determined to take her life back. Jenna soon undergoes a dramatic makeover...one that leaves even her best friend unable to recognize her. With her new look and the help of some online self-help videos, she begins her search for her attacker.

In her search, the one thing Jenna didn't expect to find was the handsome, new student, Nic. As she gets to know him, she learns he isn't who he claims to be. It's then Jenna begins to suspect the guy she's fallen for.

As she closes in on her attacker, she makes a few new discoveries, and she can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. As she races against time, will she be able to uncover the identity of her attacker before he strikes again?

I didn't particularly like the narrator which I felt didn't always convey the right emotion and/or speed. The story, although with a lot of potential and targeting a very important issue was just a bit lacking.

Good

This is a story about overcoming fears and a horrible experience. Jenna was attacked at school and no one helped her so she got the strength to help herself. That was an awesome part of the story and I appreciated her strength. She meets another student Nic and they get along well although she knows he is hiding something. Can they come together to protect Jenna and overcome the horrible violence she has in her past?

The narrator, Carly, sounded a bit rushed and she would have benefitted from some more emotion. She actually sounded best as the “bad guy” because it slowed down her narration and infused a bit of difference in her voice. However I had no problem finishing the book and enjoyed it overall.

I received this book from #AudiobookObsession, #AudiobookObsessionReviewer

Jenna decision to change herself to overcome a vicious attack after class on her way home is the act of a strong woman. The story will capture your attention from the beginning. This story is one of suspense, drama, mystery and there is some romance too.
The narrator does a good job with the characters. I would recommend this book!

I really liked this book! Its not very often that I get to read stories of pure self empowerment. I love that the main character is such a strong female and is able to overcome the devastating attack. For the first hour or so of narration I wondered how the author was going to incorporate any kind of romance or love story. I was pleasantly surprised by where the author takes this story. Suprisingly the author was also able to throw in a few twists in this shorter listen.

The narrator did a fabulous job expressing all the various emotions throughout this short listen. Her voice was a great fit for this listen. She did a great job differentiating between characters voices.

I received a review copy at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.
