The Greatest Lie of All

De: Jillian Cantor

Narrado por: Karissa Vacker, Cassandra Campbell

A glamorous romance novelist and an aspiring starlet share an unexpected secret in this addictive story about love, ambition and how far we’re willing to go to protect our hearts.

Fledgling actress Amelia Grant is at rock bottom when offered the opportunity of a lifetime: to star in a biopic about the world-renowned romance author Gloria Diamond, who used her own tragic love story as inspiration for her bestselling books. To prepare for the role, she’ll spend a week with Gloria at her secluded Washington estate. It’s a chance to get out of LA, away from her cheating ex-boyfriend, and to make her recently deceased mother proud.

Amelia’s excitement is short-lived, however, once she actually meets Gloria, who is cold, verging on rude and mostly unavailable. If not for Gloria’s frustratingly handsome son Will, the visit might be a complete waste of her time. But when Amelia stumbles upon a secret from Gloria’s past, she realizes Gloria’s life story is more fiction than fact. And as the movie’s filming date draws nearer, Amelia must decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice to uncover the truth.

Similar plot to Evelyn Hugo

Good story; easy listening. Similar story line as the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo which I loved.

Slow

It was ok... No suspense... Plot moved slowly... I would recommend it.. I got it on sale so I am ok with it.. But would pay full price or use a credit

Entertaining Mystery Mixed with Drama & Romance

Entertaining, easy listen. Well developed characters, told in alternating timelines. Karissa Vacker was an excellent narrator, and I enjoyed how the relationship with Will played out.
