    About this audiobook

    He is watching her…

    Alex Parkinson is in love with his writing tutor, Siobhan. He has never loved anyone like this, but how can he convince Siobhan that they are meant to be together?

    So Alex stalks her on Facebook and finds out where she lives, buys her presents using her own credit card and sends her messages telling her exactly what he wants to do to her. He breaks into her house, reads her diary and secretly listens to her while she takes a bath.

    Isn’t that what all lovers do?

    But when a love rival appears on the scene, Alex has to take drastic action, and soon a young woman lies dead after tumbling from the roof of her house. Now there is no-one standing in the way of Alex and his true love. But someone is watching Alex too and he is about to discover that there is a thin line between love – and hate…

    Mark Edwards

    Mark Edwards and Louise Voss met after Louise saw Mark on a TV documentary about aspiring writers, and a writing partnership was born. Their first two thrillers, Killing Cupid and Catch Your Death, were huge hits when the pair self-published them online, becoming the first UK indie authors to reach No. 1 in both the Amazon Kindle and Amazon Fiction charts.

      This was a great story, and the narrator was wonderful.
    • 3/5
      No sure what I thought about this book. Siobhan and Alex deserved each other as they were both out of their tiny minds! I liked the humor, but over all this was not a fun read!
    • 1/5
      I've not read a book with such terrible, despicable characters in a long time. I probably would have been ok with their awfulness as human beings if the situations they found themselves in and their reactions were in anyway believable but they weren't. My ability to suspend disbelief quit well before the halfway mark.

      On the positive side, the narrators did a great job.

      I'd give it a 1.5 stars because of the narration but my dislike of everything else forces the rounding down. Awful. *shudder*
    • 1/5
      I bought this on a whim because it looked intriguing enough but it also had the feel of a quick read. It is a book that you can speed through because it's engaging enough, and indeed disturbing, too. But it's just not memorable in any way.

      The writing is pretty bad at times and, like other readers, I wasn't entirely sure if that was just down to the nature of the characters being portrayed via their journal entries or because the book was self published. Editors exist for a reason.





    • 3/5
      Kinda worked as a plot but then didn't, the stalker becoming the stalked. Journal plot device was good but just showed how ridiculous each character was in their perceptions of the other - no menace at all. More about a series of unconnected events becoming connected due to the characters inability to actually communicate with each other. Sadly disappointed in this one. The creepy - he's in your bedroom while you're in the bath - just drizzled out.
    • 4/5
      This is a highly amusing little thriller with a shift in obsessions part way through the book. You have to appreciate the dark humour. I thoroughly enjoyed it and bought another book by these authors.
    • 2/5
      It was an "ok" book. Bought it from Amazon for a few pence and gave it a go. It's a cat and mouse game between two obsessive freaks. It has a good twist to the story about half way through when the stalker becomes the stalked. It's a "take your brain out" easy read. They've mentioned it may be made into a TV drama soon! I guess it was worth what I paid for it on my Kindle but wouldn't pay more!
