Captures the essence of lying! Those lies that start out as “little” soon mushroom into “BIG” ones!
This is the second book by this author I have read. The first I read was “The Husband’s Secret.” It is a real “page turner!”Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

not my usual read but good
I would say this definitely qualifies as chick lit which we all need in our lives from time to time. I liked the pace of it and the suspense was fairly good. The characters were well developed also. The only major complaint I would have is in a couple of scenarios the suspension of disbelief asked of the reader is a bit too much and some of the parts were a bit cliche but i won't go into too much detail because of spoilers. But overall I recommend it, especially if you are busy because even though it's a fairly hefty book, it reads very quick. I had it read in less than 24 hours and I read it in several sittings.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
