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.

One last ride on the O.J. Merry-Go-Round?
By Herbert L Calhoun
This is Paula Barbieri's autobiography, including her side of the O.J. Simpson saga. And although it gives the reader a great deal of "the other woman's" insight into the mind and character of O.J. -- his treachery, lies, two-timing, cheating and temper tantrums -- that eventually wrecked their relationship, it also is an honest account of what happened to her during, and in the aftermath of, the "trial of the century."
The short version of her story is that it wrecked her career, her life, and her self-confidence and drove her into the hands of Jesus. The longer version begins with her executing a carefully pre-planned breakup with O.J. -- choosing as an alternative what could have been the beginning of a new relationship in Las Vegas with the famous singer, Michael Bolton. Her first rendezvous with Bolton just coincidentally occurred on the same night that O.J. killed Nicole and Ron Goldman.
Driven back to LA in part by guilt (she had wished that her competition Nicole, dead), Paula's mother instinct also kicked in and she went back to comfort O.J. in his time of need. Her own mother counseled desperately against her going back -- fearing that somehow O.J. would maneuver the saga ending into a double suicide involving her daughter and himself. But Paula ignored her mother's advice and went back to be at O.J. side anyway. This turned out to have been a big mistake, not so much because of the threat of a double suicide, but because instead of getting away from O.J. and starting a fresh more stable love life with someone else, she ended up falling in love with O.J. all over again.
However, by the time the trial ended and O.J. was acquitted of double murder, Paula was again "in too deep" to extricate herself from O.J.'s love, the glamorous life and her own new hopes for a future with him. With a brand new cycle of the same old O.J. games of distrust, betrayal, cheating, lying and dishonesty, and Paula's own life of cocaine and other sins, her life, love and career all spun out of control.
Like the rest of humanity, Ms. Barbieri came from a very dysfunctional family and made many bad choices along the way: endured mental abuse and seemed colossally na�ve, in addition to having repeatedly failed to trust her better instincts. For instance, why would she allow herself to be sucked back into the glamour and sins of the Hollywood life style once she was free of it if she did not secretly enjoy it?
This time her ride on the O.J. merry-go-round would teach her two brutal, unforgiving poetically cynical lessons: First, that Marcus Allen, one of O.J.'s closest friends, and the man who probably was the one O.J. expected to catch at Nicole's house the night he went there to kill them, was also the man who introduced her to O.J. However, it seems that on June 12, 1994, Ron Goldman, returning Nicole's glasses, just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Marcus, who set up O.J. with Paula, got away again.
The other lesson that Ms. Barbieri learned is that one knows that she has hit rock bottom when the only friend she has left in the world that she can trust is Jesus. Tragically, that is where Ms. Barbieri's story ends. Three Stars

No one else had a motive to kill Nicole and poor Ron Goldman was in the wrong place at the ...
By Lynne Berry
I bought this book when it first came out and read it. Then I read it again recently and got a lot more out of it. It is well written despite some of the comments here. However, she did break up with O.J. the day that the murders were committed. And then flew to Vegas to be with Michael Bolton. The next day Paula found out about the murders and went back to L.A. to be with O.J. BIG MISTAKE! She should have said I broke up with you already and I cannot stand by you. End of story. But no. She lied on the stand and went to the jail to see O.J. all the time with periods of going back to Panama City. She lost work, lost her apartment and lost her ability to make a living all because she stood by O.J. She had to have known he was guilty. No one else had a motive to kill Nicole and poor Ron Goldman was in the wrong place at the wrong time. She went on and on and on about her religious beliefs and most of that could have been left out. What I got out of this book is how manipulative O.J. was, and is to this day I am sure, and I think a narcissistic sociopath. Any man that beats up a woman is a sick person. My opinion is that you can love a person, but walk away when you know that loving them is bad for you. Paula should have walked away from the beginning.

No remorse except for herself
By Kirie Pedersen
This book is amazingly poorly written; Ms. Barbieri should have pursued her original plans to attend law school. Her writing perpetuates the myth that models and actresses are extremely self-centered. Never once does she mention any sorrow or remorse that a woman and man were murdered. Her pity is all for herself and how she "gave herself up" to falsely defend her lover and, in effect, to commit "perjury by silence and presence." Although it's true that nobody asked her if she'd left a "Dear OJ" e-mail on Simpson's voice mail just before she flew off to meet another man, she knew that this was crucial evidence. She also explains why she lied under oath about whether or not O.J. had ever been violent with her; she had "amnesia." What the book does provide--and that's why I read it--is a glance into the ultimate in dependency. I've always wondered why horrible killers, such as Ted Bundy, manage to attract women even after the world is pretty aware of what they've done. Paula Barbieri's book illustrates the strange magnetism that sociopaths can have when they find the right victim(s).
