Product Description
This is the story of Paula Barbieri's relationship with O.J. Simpson from 1992 to 1994, focusing on his character, their love and the trust she placed in him until the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, the trial, her relationship with O.J. through that period and her finding of religion as her salvation. The subtext is the truth of what she and only she knows about who O.J. is, how he behaves towards women and others, what happened to Nicole and the explosive days leading up to the first trial. She reveals that she left him on the morning before the murders and relates conversations after the arrest. She tells how she loved him in spite of his obsession with Nicole, and the story of their abusive relationship. She sought salvation by becoming a born-again Christian.

 FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF November 24, 2008
This book was not really informative at all. I found it to be very much like she was feeling very sorry for herself, and not for what happened to Nicole, Ron, and the family's especially the children. It is a good thing that she got psych help, cause she needed it.
 Paula and OJ November 6, 2007
This book was very good.
Paula tells us of her life with Oj
She holds nothing back about her feelings for Oj and the rocky relationship
they had. it is a good read. I did read the Oj book and wrote two reviews but they have not been posted yet that is a really good book as well and very interesting!

This is an excellent book, im rereading it now..... Its amazing how one-sided certain situations seem and are presented...but when you take a closer look you see just how something like this affects and changes the lives of so many. This was an amazing book, I never knew, and can only say wow, what an amazing person.
People are stupid when they're young August 29, 2005

If you never made a mistake in your younger years, raise your hand... No hands, right? Because everyone is stupid and naive in their younger years, some more than others. We were all naive at one point or another, and everyone out-grows that at different times. Paul Barbieri spoke the truth in her own perspective, just like every other author/PERSON on this planet. To tell a story without any bias or perspective is impossible, and that is a written and documented fact. She went through hell on earth and is now married to a lawyer in Panama City with a beautiful little girl. She has made many silly mistakes, but I think it is amazing that she came back from them. How many people today screwed up their lives while they were young and are now sitting on their rear ends with 15 kids, no spouse, sucking up unemployment checks! She made something out of her life telling her story. And if she managed to smack some sense into even one teenager out there currently making the same kinds of mistakes, then her book was worth it. I know Ms. Barbieri personally, I stayed with her on a college trip a few years ago. She is an amazing person and tells you how it is. She is not a writer, just one person trying to influence society with her story. And there is nothing wrong with that. Nothing.
 pure lack of intellect and judgement December 28, 2004

I don't know how someone could be so naive and promiscuous to beleive that OJ is a good man. Before reading this book, i read the 'reader reviews' to see what others thought of it. I read how bad this book was, but i was curious as to how naive this woman really was, i loaned the book from the local library. Even with the heads up from the reviews as to how much this book was lacking, i was still shocked at its content. i could not bring myself to read the rest of the book, therefore i only read the first half. so if the second half makes up for the first half's pure lack of thought, i give Paula credit for writing a good book...on second thought, even if the second half of the book made up for the first half, i still would not give her any credit for writing this...literature..if you can call it that. she didn't lose money from all of this, (as much as i would like to think this is not true) she earned 3 million dollars from it. if i were in Ms. Barbieri's shoes, i know one thing i would do is take my $3million, buy a private island and keep as far away from civilization as possible, to avoid any further humiliation from the public. and i would burn any of these books i owned to keep warm on my island, thats about the best use they have.
