Synopsis
She never thought it would go this far.
It started out so innocently, but now has taken on a life of its
own. Problem is, Lindsay Palmer doesn't know how to stop. Even worse, she
doesn't want to stop. Her daily deceit has become both her greatest pleasure
and deepest shame. Thousands of people love her, but would they if they knew
the truth.
A simple favor for his baby sister brings Lindsay into Luke
Jamieson's life. There's something about this girl that keeps her on his mind
hours and days after each time they meet. Now here he is, falling in love with
a liar. All he wants is for her to let him in, and maybe together he can lead
her out of the cage of her own construction.
Will the truth set her free, or have her lies already destroyed
everything?

Carey Heywood is another one of the
authors I had the opportunity to meet at Romance Riot in NYC. Prior to
going to NYC I had a goal to read at least one book by each of the authors and
I am so glad I did. When the opportunity to read and ARC of this book, I jumped
at the chance.
I actually read this book without
even looking at the synopsis. I just jumped right in.
We are introduced to Lindsay, a
super cool and chic fashion blogger. She has a secret. From the outside,
she’s just like a lot of my friends. I
have many Facebook friends that I have never met, but I can relate to. She has become a fashion blogger with quite a
following. She is contacted by a high
school nemesis and invited to the class reunion. She is on a mission to attend but with her quirks will
she be able to get herself there and feel comfortable? Her thoughts are not unlike many women, this one included. Learning to love yourself, inside and out, is just one of the lessons that Lindsay learns. (I need to do this myself!)
I don’t want to get too far into
what Lindsay’s secret is because I don’t want to ruin it for you.
We meet Luke, the loveable personal
trainer brother of one of Lindsay’s few inner circle. Luke is your normal guy (who happens to be absolutely gorgeous) who has nothing but
Lindsay’s best interest at heart. He slowly but surely gets Lindsay to trust him. He may be a bit pushy at times (well, at least Lindsay thinks he is), but his reasoning behind caring is not full of an agenda, he truly wants whats best for her. He is
one of the truest, most genuine characters I have read in a book in a
while. We are always reading about the
alpha males but the nice boy next door is my favorite character to read about.
I think this book is such a
refreshing change to the normal alpha-male-saves-the-damsel-in-distress book
that has flooded the market. This book
has a serious undertone with laughter, smiles, tears and genuine friendship woven
throughout it.
Rating: 4/5 stars
An ARC was received for an honest review.
