About this book

The Lies We Tell Grief and a fresh start collide when our heroine arrives at Alstone College already reeling from her father's death, only to discover that the four most powerful boys on campus—led by the infuriatingly magnetic Caiden Cavendish—seem determined to make her life a living nightmare. But as tension crackles between her and Caiden, she begins to suspect that nothing is quite what it seems, and the real dangers lurking beneath the surface are far darker than simple college drama. With every moment pulling her closer to Caiden and deeper into a web of secrets, she's forced to confront the lies surrounding her past and the feelings she desperately doesn't want to have for her enemy. This gripping dark romance will have you questioning everything while burning for more.

“Create a playlist called The Lies We Tell. Dark, moody indie-pop with an undercurrent of tension. Think brooding vocals, atmospheric production, and that electric pull of forbidden attraction. Sultry R&B meets gothic alternative—dangerous chemistry wrapped in melancholy. Songs that feel like secrets and sharp wit cutting through the darkness.”
