LIE—NOUNAn intentionally false statement. Some days I didn’t know where the lies finished and the truth began.It happened with one innocent lie, and before I knew it I’d weaved a whole web.Nobody likes a liar.But what if you didn’t have a choice?What if you had to lie to protect yourself and your child?If the lies were revealed, I’d be a shell of my former self, fractured into a thousand tiny … former self, fractured into a thousand tiny pieces.
I just hoped they could be put back together.

Wow! This book had me on the edge of my seat and I could not put it down. This author is new to me and I can’t wait to catch up on the rest of this series! Abigail has found herself in a situation that she keeps hoping will get better but instead gets worse. In amongst this she is hiding a full time job, blaming herself for the ‘stress’ at home. The moment she meets Tyson, there is a connection but is she strong enough to leave the situation that us causing her harm? I need to read Book Two!!
Some books you read,
some books you enjoy.
But some books just eat you up,
heart and soul .
This was one of those for me! The story forms around a young mum (Kaylee) and her son (Eli) it deals with the heart wrenching subject of domestic abuse but the author has written it so delicately and so raw of emotion that it will pull you in.
‘Fractured Lies’ had me laughing, crying and fanning myself. I love the beautiful people we get to meet along the way as she tries breaking away from her poisonous relationship with her boyfriend (Max) especially Ty and Evan. Ty is the perfect amount of protective and sexy and I just can’t wait for Evan, Luke, Kitty and Corey’s stories.
I will be keeping an eye out for this author, I had to double check it was a debut novel and I look forward to reading more from her
This book is one that will have your emotions all over the place. It is definitely a book that will hold you captive and then have you frantically flipping back and forth when you get to ‘the end’ and there is no end!! NOOOOO
Highly suggest having book 2- EXPOSED, ready to go, trust me….you will need it!
Kay was in a happy relationship but that all changed the day she told him she was pregnant, just making each day at a time without getting hurt and looking after Eli is how she lives.
When Kay’s brother suggests a job for her, when Max says no, Kay agrees then decides to take the job and not tell him knowing there will be consequences if he finds out. When Max finds out about her job, and Kay leaves broken, not only her body but her mind and Ty takes her to his house.
Kay starts to realise that she wants to tell Ty about what happened but doesn’t know how. Ty telling her she’s perfect and he will show her how she should be treated, Kay starts to wonder.
Ty helps Kay rebuild her confidence and that although she couldn’t change what had happened that she can stop it controlling her life. Deciding that it’s time to let Ty know about her nightmares, after she tells him he promises her she’s safe and that she’s his he felt the connection from when they first met. You see how much Ty cares for Kay and helps her become a secure independent woman again through his love and showing her how she should be treated. Everything seems to be going well until they are on there mission and Kay is told something she didn’t want to hear.
Fractured Lies is an emotionally charged, absolutely gripping story. There is romance, but more than that, this is the one woman’s journey from domestic violence victim to learning bit by bit to take control of her life. So much of Kaylee’s story is incredibly heartbreaking as the author takes us through the fear, shame, guilt, issues with self-worth, and finally, the hope for a better life as Kaylee learns to depend on a group of people that are more like family than co-workers. I couldn’t help but fall a little for Tyson. He’s an alpha male with a heart of gold. The book does end with a cliffy and it’s a doozy – a gasp and I can’t believe it’s ending there kind of doozy, but the whole thing is a completely compelling read that is impossible to put down.
