Publisher's summary

He saw her first, but his friend made the move.

She settled for the safer choice, but her heart knew the truth.

They love, they crave, they lie.

Garrett McCarthy, Annabelle Parker, and Milo Roberts were as close as friends could get. They shared in each other's joy during graduations, promotions, and engagements. They consoled one another through heartache and loss.

When one of the friends' lives is tragically cut short, it's up to the two left behind to pick up the pieces and find out the truth - no matter the cost. As they slowly start to uncover the nature of his deception, and the very powerful people behind it, they begin to question everyone and everything, even themselves.

Everyone has secrets - some do it for love while others do it for power. Those secrets can change perceptions, alter reality, and sometimes destroy lives.

Very Enjoyable

I really enjoyed this book. Narration was good and writing was good. It kept me on the edge of my seat. Everything came together in the end. Characters are well developed.

Good Story

A great story. I enjoyed the characters and plot. I feel the story sort of dragged on a bit towards the end. However, it had a great happy ending.👍

Loved it! It kept me guessing the entire time.
Lots of twist and exciting turns.

Absolutely AMAZING!!

This book has it all. From action to grief. It's about a love affair that goes unacted upon for years. When tragedy strikes, they go on a mission to uncover the bitter truth and let their true feelings come to light. It's suspenseful and packed with lots of steamy scenes too. A definite must have!

Started out decently then went downhill

World’s dumbest and emotionally reactive SEAL and CIA agent. Apparently, love makes you stupid. Thin plot premise that was okay but rapidly disintegrated and I had to skip ahead.
