Summary

'In a world where you can be anything, be kind.'

Caroline Flack was the girl who had it all...beauty, talent, money, fame and a hugely successful career.

But, away from the television cameras and the fabulous parties, there hid a lonely, frightened young woman. Caroline was already a rising star when she shot to fame as the presenter of Love Island. With her beauty and her effervescent personality, she was perfect for the role and soon the show was drawing six million viewers.

Yet, behind the scenes, her love life was chaotic. She dated Prince Harry, Harry Styles and Russell Brand before finding love with tennis player Lewis Burton.

Her world came crashing down on the night Lewis called 999 to report Caroline was attacking him. Police found Caroline hysterical and the couple covered in blood.

Just as it seemed life could not be any worse, Caroline was fired by ITV and barred by the courts from contacting Lewis.

In this extraordinary and revealing book, Emily Herbert talks with friends and celebrities to reveal the heartbreaking true story of how this beautiful woman crashed from the pinnacle of fame and success to a lonely and tragic death.

Ad Lib Publishers are donating the profits from the sale of this book to support the work of Samaritans, a charity registered in England and Wales (219432), and other charities that support the victims of cyberbullying.

Great read, listen listen listen x

This book has given me a lot of things to think about. I didn't know what she was going through. seems that no matter what she was gonna do herself in as that's how she felt. nobody could have convinced her otherwise. shame really. just proved frame and fortune does not give love and happiness.

Great read. I enjoyed listening to the book

Insightful and very sad

Although I felt the first half was better than the second. I felt it focused too much on other people in Caroline’s life rather Caroline herself. Nevertheless, a very sad tale, wish Caroline was still here - RIP sweet lady.

I didn't love this book, but I didn't hate it either, I was enjoying it until it started to venture away from Caroline and started telling you about all the contestants that were in some of the show's she presented, that stuff was really boring me and I felt was only there to fill the book up a bit more, I did enjoy when the story was about Caroline though. So for this reason I gave it 4 stars.
