It was exactly what I wanted to listen to in this story. Definitely the epilogue and the Shades of grey chapters are the absolute best in the whole book. I was waiting for that! I believe that listeners will be happy with the ending.
There is some suspense that brings some spice to the book but it never lives up to the mesmerizing stories we got on the first two books. Christians skeletons keep coming out of the closet and threatening his dear Ana. By now this drags a bit because it is a repeat of situations: Christian jealous, Ana challenges them, they fight, the have steamy sex and so on and so forth. It includes more kinky lovery, more vanilla wonders and more Christian going sicko possessive. Fifty Shades Freed starts with Christian and Anastacia enjoying their honeymoon. She's ok but I still prefered the original recording were she sounded young but her male voices were much better. Narration: By now Becca Batoe's remastered recording (the-I-just-drank-half-a-bottle-of-wine-and-started-reading) is growing on me. Oh the tragedy! Fortunately I can and will listen to all three books over and over. Look for E L James’ passionate new love story, The Mister, coming April 16, 2019. This audiobook is intended for mature audiences. Just when it seems that their strength together will eclipse any obstacle, misfortune, malice, and fate conspire to make Ana’s deepest fears turn to reality. And Christian must overcome his compulsion to control as he wrestles with the demons of a tormented past. Ana must somehow learn to share Christian’s opulent lifestyle without sacrificing her own identity. But Ana knows that loving her Fifty Shades will not be easy, and that being together will pose challenges that neither of them would anticipate.
Now, Ana and Christian have it all - love, passion, intimacy, wealth, and a world of possibilities for their future. Determined to keep her, Christian agrees. Shocked, intrigued, and, ultimately, repelled by Christian’s singular erotic tastes, Ana demands a deeper commitment.
