Story
Ainsley Greenburg is a fixer. It’s what she prides herself on. So when Ainsley realizes her marriage is at its breaking point, she makes a decision to repair it, no matter the cost. Approaching her husband to propose the arrangement is supposed to be the hard part, but Peter agrees to the salacious plan almost immediately. The rules are simple: They will each date someone new once a week. They will never discuss what happens on the dates. Soon, though, the rules are broken, turning terrible mistakes into unspeakable consequences.

Story
Being “shook” is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne; it’s his mission to overcome. While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by anxieties - fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a worse husband; and, ultimately, fear of failure. Shook One chronicles his journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held back from your potential.

Suspenseful, Beautiful
Loved the story which at first seems to be about love coming true, but instead turns out to be nightmare.
The characters are so well drawn. While one grows, discovers her own needs and sees herself more clearly, the other character becomes, more clearly, who she has always been.
The writing is just gorgeous.
A wonderful way to spend an hour!!

Tragedy and Triumph
This is one of the most tragic stories I have read. I have been a mental health therapist for over 35 years and have never stepped over the ethical boundaries of a relationship with patients. My heart goes out to this woman, seeking for healing and finding it, eventually, after the most brutal violation of herself, her love and her trust. This tells the story of being involved with a true narcissist, no matter her past and how that impacted one life, and so many others. Thank you for sharing, and I cheer with you for your healing in this.

Tedious & one sided
The performance is the only redeeming quality. The only "voice" is the victim. We never hear support or encouragement from her friends. I recognize abuse is real & awful But this book was utterly tedious & depressing.

Enthralling
This is an enthralling story. Fortunately, I listened to it on a drive longer than the story---otherwise, I would have had to cross the next state line just to hear the end. Cris Beam illustrates how easily one can come under the sway of someone else's power and control, losing one's own identity and sense of self. This story offers insight into why people stay in abusive relationships, by bringing us directly into the narrator's heart and mind. I can't imagine anyone, after hearing this story, asking "But why did she stay?" The voice of Aida Reluzco seems perfectly matched to the story. Save it for a time when you'll be able to hear the whole thing, or you'll miss your exit.
