Cruel Lies

Cruel Secrets Duet

De: Faith Summers, Khardine Gray

Narrado por: Alexander Neal, Sarah Puckett

He’s my villain, my monster, my forbidden path....

Caspian Ivanov and I come from the same dark world. One where the Bratva and the secret society reign. He’s also the son of their ruthless leader.

“I’ll destroy you.”

That’s the last thing he said to me.

It was on the night of the Reaping. Hard to believe we were ever best friends. His vengeance is, however, the price I pay for keeping a secret I shouldn’t have kept. A secret that ripped our families apart. It made us forbidden to each other. That’s when he became the viperous devil. Breathtakingly beautiful, but with a cold black heart.

Like any snake, he wanted to poison me. When our paths collide at Raventhorn University, I stay away from him. What I don’t expect is to become his obsession, or to be forced to become his wife.

Except, we might not get to say I do. Because someone wants me dead.

Cruel Lies is the first part of the Cruel Secrets Duet and is not standalone. It is a dark mafia/secret society college bully romance filled with mystery, suspense, and plenty of sizzling hot steamy scenes.

Please be warned: this audiobook is dark. It contains dubious and other triggering situations that some listeners might find offensive or be sensitive to. Please don't listen if any of that bothers you. The Cruel Secrets Duet is set in the Raventhorn world.

Waiting

The book was excellent but it left me wanting more. Waiting for the second book to come out.

Great Story & Narration🎧Captivating & Thrilling!

This is a fantastic dark mafia, secret society college bully romance. The story grabbed my attention right from the start and held it captive for the entire book. It is my first book written by Faith Summers and I enjoyed her writing style and the complexity and layers of the story and its originality. The plotting and world building are fantastic, as are the character development and growth. Willow Raventhorn and Caspian Ivanov were best of friends growing up, both their families are Bratva and hold power in a secret society. But a betrayal tore their friendship apart, a betrayal of their parents. But that did not change Willow's or her sister’s role in the society and the same goes for Caspian. Caspian is preparing for knighthood while attending Raventhorn University, the same school as Willow. The once friends are now enemies, Willow would like otherwise and Caspian, who is pretending otherwise, pretending that he hates her. His act starts to slip though and when he finds out she has been receiving threatening notes, his protective mode kicks in and despite his father’s warning to stay away from her, he can not help himself. There is never a dull moment in this book, the story has plenty of drama, angst, twists and turns, mystery, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn enemies to lovers romance. Faith Summers, thank you for this great story and he wild ride. I am looking forward to what comes next in the “Cruel Secrets” duet, I hope it is coming to audio soon.

🎧📚🎧  And for the fantastic narration, Alexander Neal and Sarah Puckett did an amazing job bringing these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each their own distinct voice and were believable in every role they played. Sarah Puckett nailed it as Willow, grasping every side of her personality, and Alexander Neal did the same for Caspian. Both played their roles with perfection, including the roles for the secondary characters. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling every single one. These entertaining storytellers are versatile voice artists and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen.

Eel! What a story!

Eek! What a cra-cra story! I could not believe what I was listening to and just when I thought I knew what was going to happen..BOOM! I was wrong…. The relationship between these two main characters is push and pull. They love to hate each other but yet secretly like and miss each other. They find out that everyone has secrets. But what will happen when they come out? The suspense part of this story is top notch!

The narration in here is well done. Sarah Puckett and Alexander Neal do a super job and they helped me fall into this story. I cant wait for the next one!
