Publisher's summary

Forced to his knees in agony whenever he speaks the truth, Gideon can recognize any lie--until he captures Scarlet, a demon-possessed immortal who claims to be his long-lost wife. He doesn't remember the beautiful female, much less wedding - or bedding - her. But he wants to...almost as much as he wants her.

But Scarlet is a keeper of nightmares too dangerous to roam free. A future with her might mean ultimate ruin, especially as Gideon's enemies draw closer - and the truth threatens to destroy all he's come to love.

I Hated this book (NOT) Gideonspeak ha ha

I was reticent to read this one I don't know why. Fear that Gideon would not be sexy or that Scarlet would not be likable? I was blown away!!!! Masterful plotting. Seems like everyone is getting in the game and the series just keeps getting more and more exciting. Whatever Ms. Showalter is drinking make mine a double. This book was her best yet. And Max Bellamore does a smoking job too. If you like Gena Showalter's books check out you tube for Author Talk with Jill Monroe.

Coulda been hard to understand

With the demon that Lies is saddled with this story could have been really difficult. Instead it was amusing and fun. The premise of the story was pretty good, though there were a few twists that I was able to figure out before they were revealed in the story.

Each of these books leaves me looking forward to the next. I've given up trying to listen to other series' between each of these books and am just going book to book at this point.
