I never knew. One minute I was flying high and the next I came crashing down so harshly the world shattered.It was all a lie.But then he came.He came with his dark eyes and his cutting words and his cruel, cruel stare.Grayson Rothburg. Recluse. Genius. Truth speaker.My friend, Gray. My real.My hero in disguise. He says I should move on. Change. And now he’s offered me a diversion, a way to help … offered me a diversion, a way to help me re-evaluate what’s left of me.
The trouble is, I don’t know how real that is either.
And I’m not sure I care.

This one is a hard one to describe.
It’s a woman’s spiral into something completely different to what’s she’s been up until now.
A time of her life she will use to reinvent herself and bury her pain as deep as she can.
Also, a man who will assist her in this endeavour for his own unexplained reasons.
Just what is Gray’s game and why is he hiding himself away from the world at large.
There’s definitely more going on here than what we’ve been told and I so wanted to learn his particular backstory.
This was so surreal and I actually had a deep well of apprehension the further on I went.
I think mostly because I didn’t know what was actually occurring and the whys and also because it was a tad out of my comfort zone.
I was totally wondering if maybe Hannah had bit off more than she could chew
This one was very unique and darkly different.
I’m intrigued to see where it goes next.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of A Distraction Of Lies (Truth And Lies Trilogy #1)

This is amazing read that will have you reading in one setting. This has a lot of highs and lows and will throw your emotional edge over so that you feel the needs and anger. This is a hard book to describe as it draws you in and has a cliffhanger ending. I so wanted to throw my phone as it was starting to get intense.. next book soon.
A Distraction of Lies is the first book in a new trilogy, so I knew there were going to be many unanswered questions at the end, but oh my, what an ending! A cliffhanger that has left me desperately longing for what comes next!
Hannah Tanners life imploded in a short moment, but it put her in the path of enigmatic, billionaire recluse Grayson Rothberg. For reasons even he’s not sure of, he offers her a chance to be distracted, a chance to escape and explore herself for a while. She wants real, but what does that even mean?
Gray is a loner, mostly withdrawn from public life, intense, forthright, blunt and honest, there is nothing subtle or softening with the truths when he speaks. He’s a mystery I want to crack, elusive and secretive but with a seductive air about him. Who is he underneath, what is he and why is his work so important to him, why is he closed off, why wont he give in to what he desires?
This book is packed full of mystery, intrigue, desire and a subtle but warped darkness I loved and didn’t want to put down. Gray and Hannah both had good depth of character and I loved and despaired at times for each of them. I’m worried for Hannah with the decisions she’s making and the questions she’s not asking, but need to know where she’s headed as she’s turned 180 degrees from who she was. Is she crazy, naive or grasping an opportunity not to be missed?
I’m utterly intrigued with the connection growing between them, it is heated and unusual in a dark, twisted way that this author is so good at. Beautifully written, I have no idea how it will play out, but I can’t wait to discover it!
A Distraction of Lies is the first book in a new series written by Charlotte E. Hart and I am now left begging for more! I am a huge fan of this author’s work. I’ve come to expect nothing less than brilliance from her and I can assure you that she has not left me feeling disappointed at all!!
Gray intrigues me. I am desperate to learn more about this man. What are his secrets? What are his intentions? He is changing and I want to know why! I like him and then I don’t. He’s an enigma – a genius at what he does but leads a solitary life and I cannot wait to spend more time with him so that I can gain a greater understanding and discover the reasons for his actions.
Hannah has had her life turned upside down and needs to escape. What she goes through has me hurting for her and feeling angry too! I totally understand why she has reacted in the way that she has and I’m both worried and excited for her as she seeks a distraction from her reality.
I’ve absolutely loved witnessing the interactions between Gray and Hannah, they have both surprised me at times. The connection that they have makes me wonder where this story will go. There is so much to learn about both characters and I love that I will be thinking of all the possibilities until the next part of this story is released. Will Gray be Hannah’s hero or villain and will Hannah entice Gray to act on his desires? I cannot wait to see how this story unfolds!
