If I were dead, I wouldn't be able to see. If I were dead, I wouldn't be able to feel. If I were dead, he'd never raise his hand to me again. If I were dead, his words wouldn't cut as deep as they do. If I were dead, I'd be beautiful and I wouldn't be so...ugly. I'm not dead...but I wish I was.

Story
Minnesota, 1977. For the teens of one close-knit community, summer means late-night swimming parties at the quarry, the county fair, and venturing into the tunnels beneath the city. But for two best friends, it’s not all fun and games. Heather and Brenda have a secret. Something they saw in the dark. Something they can’t forget. They’ve decided to never tell a soul. But their vow is tested when their friend disappears—the second girl to vanish in a week. And yet the authorities are reluctant to investigate.

Story
My Prison without Bars is a courageous and harrowing journey through the catacombs of hell, from the mind and voice of a little girl, living with her own monster underneath her bed. Written in first person, this novel is not a memoir, but more a psychological thriller based on true events; chronicling one woman's attempt to claw her way out of the darkness of Child Sexual Abuse, while struggling to find normal, in a not-so-normal world. It is poignant, dark and graphic; not for the faint of heart.

I’d never forgotten him - a man I’d yet to meet. Griffin Quinn was my childhood pen pal, the British boy who couldn’t have been more different from me. Over the years, through hundreds of letters, we became best friends, sharing our deepest, darkest secrets and forming a connection I never thought could break. Until one day, it did. Then, out of the blue, a new letter arrived. A scathing one - one with eight years of pent-up anger. I had no choice but to finally come clean as to why I stopped writing. Griffin forgave me, and we were able to rekindle our childhood connection.

Brave!
In my opinion A Life Less Broken has MANY hero's in it. First of all Margaret McHeyzer was very brave to write a story about a survivor of a gang rape left for dead. This is not the likely HEA story anyone would think of but she knocks it out of the park. Honestly, when bad things happen to all of us, we always wish for "what goes around comes around" to be present to witness what goes around. The best parts of this story are the epilogues, but you won't know it unless you listen to the whole story first -
Meghan Kelly narrates this story and executes each character's pitch and attitude with ease. I was captivated how she inflicted grief, self doubt, and strength in Allyn's voice, while giving Dr. Dominic Shriver patience, love and insight into Allyn's small victories. Of all the audio books I've listened to, not just anyone has this talent.
The other thing I enjoyed about this book is, it starts out telling about the horrific scene, but doesn't go into graphic detail. Yes, we know that gang rape is traumatic, but this story focuses on the survival and getting past the event, more than it does the event itself. I also appreciate how Margret McHeyzer brought to light that not all physiologists are the same. Much like car mechanics and family doctors, some are better than others. Margret makes this very evident when Allyn dismisses her therapist, and I mentally cheer and applaud Allyn's decision.
I know I'm repeating myself by saying the best part of the story is found in the epilogues but in order to understand it and truly appreciate it, you have to listen to the whole story.

The story is amazing BUT the narration puts it OVER the top!!
Wow-O-Wow! I can’t even! Arg!! This girl! This poor poor girl! Even THREE YEARS later she is still so affected! I can totally understand and I really REALLY felt her fears. Then to watch her baby steps was amazing!
This is not a first time author for me. Ugly was my first book by her and i was just as affected by that story. This author takes me to the edge of my emotions then....gives just a little push to take me over. Then she reels me back in for more. I LOVE the title of this book!
KUDOS to Meghan Kelly who really put her emotions into this as well. She took the story and went one step further playing Allyn. She made what Allyn’s felt so real it was terrifying. The quiver in her voice during her “moment” drew me in. Simply Amazing!!

Gut-wrenching
Margaret McHeyzer is the type of author that makes you reevaluate your life. Most of her books have made me look at myself and question what I see. A Life Less Broken is an incredibly angsty read that seriously tugged at my heart. The words McHeyzer uses helps you to feel right along with the main character, Allyn. It's really an emotional roller coaster and tugged at my heart the entire audiobook.
There could not have been a better narrator for this book. Meghan Kelly tells a painful story with her lovely, yet emotional voice. This is a tough one to hear but the author writes a story with so much thought and the narrator put in so much heart that I couldn't help be love the story. I'll be completely honest, it's so painful... keep tissues handy!!

Heartbreaking story of a beautiful love.........
A Life Less Broken is an absolutely amazing book. Although I have never suffered trauma as that of the main character of the story, Allyn, I can't imagine an author doing a better job of handling this sensitive subject with enough anguish to make me cry sad tears but also enough hope to bring out my happy tears. Allyn's journey to recovery from her ordeal is long and arduous, but the feeling of the book changes completely once she meets Dominic, a gifted therapist who changes her life in so many ways, all of them positive. I felt privileged to watch Dominic coax Allyn out of her cocoon of self-protection, showing her that life could be colorful and worth living again. Allyn was so incredibly strong without even realizing her strength, and she was the missing piece in Dominic's life as well. The author throws a HUGE twist into the story close the end, and this made me love Dominic even more. I can't recommend this book enough, and I urge even those who prefer a lighter read to listen because the ending will make all the angst so worthwhile.
Meghan Kelly is the queen of dual narration, and she offers her usual phenomenal performance with this book. Her voice is perfect for Allyn's youthful character, but I find her equally convincing as the strong and masculine Dominic. Her delivery is flawless, and she makes an already stellar book even more enjoyable as an audiobook.
I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

Great Read
A Life Less Broken was a great read by Margaret McHeyzer. Allyn Sommers went to work as if it was any other day. She would've never guessed that her life would change drastically that day. Three years later, she finds herself as a prisoner in her home due to that day and the damage it created. Dr. Dominic Shriver is a psychiatrist who wants to help but is fighting off his personal feelings for her. I enjoyed reading this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

Emotional and Psychological Journey!
This story of a tragic event that changed Allyn's life forever is so haunting, heartbreaking, and hopeful. My heart broke for Allyn as she questioned her actions and was fearful every moment of everyday. Until she met Dominic, who would help her see that she could live and love life again. It was a difficult journey that had it's setbacks, but the beautiful moments of healing made it well worth it. This was a very emotional and heartrending story made all the more powerful by Meghan Kelly's narration. Her portrayal of Allyn's anxiety, fear, and vulnerabilities, then her hopefulness, renewal, and joy was so captivating. She also really creeped me out with her voices haunting Allyn in her mind, they were so good. This is my first book by McHeyzer and she and Kelly really held me captive on this emotional and psychological journey!

This book took me on a rollercoaster of so many different emotions. It grabbed my attention on the very first page and held it all the way until the last page. While the romance between Allyn and Dominic was a bit on the taboo side, I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is open minded and loves a well written story. Meghan Kelly did a fantastic job of bringing both Allyn and Dominic to life with all the various emotions that came through in her voice.

A great book
~I received a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review~
Allyn is a normal young girl, working in a shop when darkness moves into her life. She’s attacked, molested, sexual abused, beaten almost to dead and left with several scars, broken bones and other sever damages and left to die, but against all odds she survives - but to what life?
Allyn stays inside her home for the next couple of years without ever leaving the house. Therapy doesn’t help her until she hear about Dominic Shriver, a psychiatrist that helps abused individuals learn to live again. He starts to help her, step by step - and slowly he gets her out of her homemade prison. And of course they fall in love.
It’s a beautiful, dark well-written story, and I really loved Dominic for his patience and thoughtfulness. He’s definitely one of a kind!!! Even though Allyns trouble isn’t over Dominic never stops being there for her.
I really loved this book and it’s slow but steady process. And the narrator did a great job too. I will definitely look into more audiobooks by both!
Enjoy your reading/listening!!!

Grab this life full story
This is such a fantastic story. Both the author and narrator will grab you from the start to finish . There are so many layers you can’t keep up with the twists and turns. There are some scenes in the story that will have you gasping
It’s about Allyn that is trapped inside a hell that she doesn’t think she can escape . There are wicked men that keep her trapped in her ideas
Grab it and see how she fairs out
Meghan Kelly is a gem with her voice . She brings this story to life. She makes you live right in the story
