The Boyfriend

Every Parent's Worst nightmare

By: D. E. McCluskey

Narrated by: Alan Turton

Lisa Quinn has a boyfriend: Sean Knight.

She is just 16 years old, and he is her first. He's handsome, and, with his charm, he wins over her usually overprotective parents.

Yet there is a dark side to Sean.

When Lisa's parents go away on vacation, Sean's dark side emerges, and he viciously attacks her over a two-day period, sending pictures of his work to someone he calls Jay.

Lisa's life is turned upside down, and her allies are few and far between. Luckily, she has a close friend to confide in.

When her parents return from vacation, Lisa seems like a different person.

They say revenge is a dish best served cold.

How well do we really know the people in our lives? Do we truly know which way their moral compass spins?

Monsters come in all shapes, sizes, and guises. Is there such a thing as a hero? In this novel, as in life, even the good guys have deeper shades of grey.

Great story, but I wasn’t a huge fan of the narration.

The narrator was good except when he was talking as one of the teenagers. Otherwise, I enjoyed it.

Loved it!

I was at first thrown off by the narrator, but soon I started really liking him, I’m all for revenge books and this one did not disappoint! I couldn’t stop went through this book so fast. 10/10

STILL

trying to wrap my head around this … jaw dropping!! D.E.McCluskey is gifted with his storytelling.

Why did I wait so long??

I really enjoyed this book. Monsters come in all shapes & sizes. It is very brutal & graphic and I loved every second. IThe ending is superb!

a little too dark

the scenes were a little too graphic and detailed; the dark scenes dragged on too long. A little after 1/2 way through the book it became too predictable.
