Fire captain Cameron McClain dropped into my life with as much subtlety as an unsolicited d*ck pic. I shouldn’t be attracted to him, but I am. He’s too old for me, too alpha for my tastes, and too bossy in the bedroom. Though, I have to admit he knows exactly how to use his . . . firehose.I’m not interested in a forever kind of relationship, but he’s down for whatever I’m willing to give. Our … willing to give. Our arrangement is perfect. At least that’s how it begins. I never wanted the happily ever after, but he’s just so tempting.
The smart choice would be to end things before they combust, but for some reason I can’t push Cam away. The harder I try, the harder he–well, you get the picture.
I wish things were different. I want to be someone worthy of his devotion. But the secrets I hold close, they don’t just eat me up inside, they destroy anyone who gets too close.
So, I won’t fall in love. Simple, right?
Wrong. So freaking wrong. I don’t just fall. I crash and burn for this man. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Turns out I’m not the only one telling lies and keeping secrets, and his are enough to rip us apart forever.
Caught in the Lies reads as standalone but readers can enjoy Cam and Jill’s FREE prequel, One Hot Night, available now or begin with Callie’s book in Caught in the Flames.

Cam and Jill certainly keep the reader guessing. This was an easy story to read, it flowed and was easy to follow. The chemistry is intense which made the sex scenes hot and steamy . I loved how Cam is the one who wants more and has to work hard to break down Jill’s walls. Both characters are flawed which makes them more interesting. A really enjoyable story.
“If heroes really do exist, he’s forever mine.”
I cannot say one bad thing about Caught in the Lies; I meant to only read a few pages but ending up binge reading the entire book in one sitting. Just like in ‘One Hot Night’ Cam and Jill held me captive from page one. These two kept me guessing, had me swooning & broke my heart in the best possible way. This was a five star read jam packed full of secrets, baggage, all the sweet & all the sass & wit; I could not get enough.
Caught In The Lies is Lily and Cameron’s book and it is full of steam , drama, lies, and truths. Lily never meant to fall in love with Cam but when his past and present come together some decisions have to be made. This book will have you emotional in certain areas. Kacey Shea did an amazing job on this book.
Have your Fire Exstinguishers ready because Caught In Lies by Kacey Shea is one Sexy book.
I burned through those pages at record speed because I could not get enough Of Cam and Jill’s complex romance.
This is an age gap story Jill and Cam’s chemistry is so intense and they are a great match,but as with every great love story there are complications.Jill is holding back and doesn’t think she deserves a happy ending.She is keeping secrets which could tear this relationship apart.But Cam’s patience made me swoon and love him to bits,he is a dream.
This book is jam packed with all kinds of emotions,you will laugh ,cry and swoon,Its heartwarming and heart wrenching all at the same time.
Kacey Shea has yet again written another incredible book,and an exceptionally amazing edition to this series.You will not be able to put it down and it will have you dreaming about sexy Fire fighters when you sleep at night.
Magnificent read I highly recommend it.
Oh, Mylanta, the romance in this book was sizzling! Kacey Shea did it again with an explosive couple along with amazing chemistry that you could feel coming off the pages. The emotion throughout this book had me in tears a few times hoping that they could finally find their HEA. This has to be on my Top 5 list that I’ve read this year!
Cam was truly the dirty-talking hero that any right-minded woman would want in her life. He had a great balance between being an Alpha and a true gentleman.
Jill had cold feet throughout this book because deep down she thinks things could never have a happy ending that she deserves. She is full of sassiness along with being a fierce, independent woman.
Witty banter filled the pages by not only the hero and heroine but with Jill’s trusted friends – Alicia and Callie. After reading Caught in the Lies I can’t wait for Alicia’s upcoming story, Caught in the Chase.
Go pre-order this HOT firefighter story in which you are bound to fall head over heels in love!
After finishing the prequel to this book I was super excited to see how these two would manage towards their HEA. For a moment there I thought it would not happen with Jill being as stubborn as she was. But she didn’t see Cam coming and his determination to have her in his life. I’ve got to say a few things he did while he was growling were a bit »strange« but they made him get her back so all is good.
Both of them made me laugh, smile and cry but also made me real proud for finding the inner strength to keep fighting for each other because they just work no matter the age difference.
This book hit a personal note and I just want to say thanks to Kacey Shea for spreading the word around.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Kacey Shea’s Caught in the Lies! It was on fire sexy, emotion packed, and full of heart. I swooned, I laughed, totally cried, and completely fell in love with this book!

The suspense of everything coming together had me reading on the edge of my seat with so much angst, racing to a conclusion. Let me tell you, author Kacey Shea did not disappoint! I loved this book throughout and the ending was all the feels and everything swoony!

Caught In The Lies is my favourite by Kacey Shea yet!
Cam and Jill are in love, everyone else can see that, but Jill knows she’s not made for happy endings and they’re both hiding so many things it would never work anyway.
Jill is keeping secrets, holding everyone at bay, from her boss pushing the limit on sexual harassment to whatever she’s hiding about her family, and her actual feelings about Big D/@k Cam. Unfortunately she’s not the only one, and when she finally finds out some of Cameron’s past she can’t believe she’s been this stupid. She knows better than to trust him, these things never work out anyway, she’s just not meant to heave a happy ending.
Cam is in love with Jill. He knows he wants her for the long haul, but with secrets like his would she even stick around? When she finds out what he’s been hiding, Cam is more determined than ever to win Jill back.
My favourite book so far by Ms. Shea, Kacey gives action, fear, and secrets galore in Caught In The Lies. And don’t forget the sexual tension! Cam and Jill practically combust any time they’re in the same room, or in the middle of a torrential storm!
Worth a ton more than 5 stars, I can’t wait to see what Kacey Shea delivers with Alicia’s story in Caught In The Shadows!!
It’s with a bit of a heavy heart as I reflect back on CAUGHT IN THE LIES. Our adult lives are shaped by our families, surroundings and circumstances that happen in our developmental years. Sometimes our own misconceptions and those developmental years can make it more difficult on ourselves as adults. Everyone has a past, but Cam and Jill have much to overcome. In this story, it’s a growing process for themselves as well as their growing attraction for each other. As much as I loved Cam and Jill, I absolutely loved the bond between Jill and her two friends, Callie and Alicia! (Callie’s story was in Caught In The Flames, Alicia’s story is yet to come in Caught In The Chase).
Caught in the Lies has wonderful characters, a story line that draws you in, some unexpected thrown in and a HEA! HOT fireman, strong will female! What more can you ask for?!?!?
Audio Review
I fell for Cam and Jill in Caught in the Flames and so glad they got their own story. Jill and Cam both have secrets they are keeping and neither one want to share but secrets are difficult to keep hidden forever. These two definitely have the heat and the attraction is off the charts but they are keeping the hearts guarded. We get to see Jill’s soft side and her work life as well. We learn that Cam has so many layers and is a really nice guy. I’ll not reveal anything else because you need the surprises.
Savannah Peachwood is great. I loved listening to her. We get snip its of Jason Clarks throughout which is always a plus for our ears.

I received a code from Audiobook Obsession to listen and review with my honest opinion. I loved this book and highly recommend it. It is a stand alone but I also recommend the first in the series as well as it is really good too.
Caught Book Two.
Jill met Cameron McClain when her best friend was dating his brother, Chase. Unfortunately, Chase was a jerk and now Jill feels guilty for being with Cam. spoiler
So when she hears a voicemail that seems to prove that Cam is cheating, she immediately cuts him off. Cam is determined to break through her barriers, though, and moves into the house next door. This allows him to slowly work his way back into her life. Both have secrets that could destroy the delicate balance they’ve created, though.
If your looking for a story about a firefighter outside of the firehouse, this is the book for you!

This really went in a direction that I didn’t realize it would go. Few times am I surprised over stories but this one got me.
While this is an older man/younger woman story I never realized it until one of the characters joked or blabbed about it. This Cameron and Jills story and I was glad to get it. They seemed so outrageous in the last story that I wondered about them. Cameron is not what I expected….well he is at first but then he smooths out to become a great guy. Jill seemed pretty mouthy in the last book but in here she seems more subdued. Actually almost jittery at times. Maybe because of her commitment fear? Or something else?
I enjoyed this story as a whole. The characters are full and rounded nicely. The girls are still ridiculously fun with their conversations. Plus it’s was nice to see Callie/Ash and Alisha and see how they are doing.
My only question with the book. What was the deal with Ryan and his sister?? It’s like Cam didn’t like them but never figured out what the deal is….other than he said he used to work with him. I kinda felt they were unnecessary additions.
Savannah Peachwood did another amazing job with this story. Jason Clarke added some parts that I was confused about at first (voice memos of Cam) I just didn’t understand their purpose in the beginning but later I understood it. This is my second book by Kacey Shea. She continues to give an wonderful story with these characters that always amaze me.
Whew! Jill and Cam were smokin’ hot in this one! Both of them were carrying some intense secrets (some I thought that were set aside a little too easily) and this made them think they couldn’t have a “real” relationship. What they didn’t realize is that it was pretty darn real all along. Jill was hard to like at times, but I did admire her strength and how she was always there for the people in her circle. I loved the relationship she has with her girlfriends. Cam was everything you’d expect from the typical hot fireman, but there was also a deeper, scared side to him that made him very endearing to me. Kacey Shea’s writing is excellent and kept me completely invested in this story, even though I did want to smack these two more than once. Overall, I thought it was a great read and I’m excited to get to Alicia’s story.
wow absolutely amazing! I could not get enough of this audiobook! make sure you keep hold of the tissues , you’ll need them towards the end but it’s totally worth it and you’ll still smile by the end , it’s an absolute must read/listen
Jill Bennet and Cameron McClain light the sheets on fire when they meet, but they soon realize the pulse beating between them is stronger than either of them can resist. Unfortunately, with lies of omission, they catch up with them before truths can be revealed. When faced with the realities of day to day life choices, they ignore the most basic of human needs—love.
Kacey Shea reaches deep into the heartstrings with Jill and Cam. She works through the nature of the love beyond the trope, with an artistry which colors each work she publishes. She reaches the depth of human compassion and realism true of her Caught works and takes it to another level of goodness. Jill and Cam try to hide beneath the lies of an initial one stand, but soon come to realize that not every one night stand is equal. Through masterful storytelling, Shea brings to life a passionate tale of nonchalance, uncovered in true chivalry and magic between two souls meant to be paired and sewn together with unconditional love. Once again, Shea brings the heat with a firefighter willing to burn up the pages of love and a happy ever after.
I loved this emotional and sexy age gap romance. We get a glimpse of Cam & Jill in their prequel, which is free in, One Hot Night! Their connection is fiery hot, their banter is fun & flirty, but their insecurities have them hiding secrets and unwilling to share. So even though they feel perfect for each other, it’s these secrets that feel more like lies that threaten to shred them to pieces. Jill’s best friends, Alicia & Callie, are incredible. I love the way they tease & support each other. But ultimately it’s the emotional journey that Cam & Jill endure that is so beautiful. I loved everything about this book. The writing was exceptional. Can’t wait for Alicia’s story!
I am so glad that I purchased this one. I love Kacey and this book proves why. It is full of funny moments, tender moments, heart wrenching moments and amazing moments. Cam is a firefighter and wants a relationship with Jill. But Jill doesn’t know how to be in one. This was one very interesting intense storyline. I absolutely loved the chemistry between Cam and Jill. You can easily see that these two belong together once they realize that they can both do a relationship. I didn’t like the fact that he was keeping such a big secret from her. But did understand why he was keeping it. Love her two friends and how no matter what they are there for her through everything. An overall amazing well written book about two amazing characters. Highly recommend.
Captain with firehose! This steamy romance was fun and light.. Cameron and Jill were too cute together. Their relationship were explosive sexy… Cam was a total hotness and yes the story was captivating..
I absolutely LOVED this book. This will go down as my top favorite book of this author! I can’t sing enough praises for this amazing novel! It was so much more than a love story: there was pain, insecurities, fighting to move on from past demons, and convincing yourself (or the characters) that they DO deserve their happy ever afters.
I haven’t read the previous book in this series, but I absolutely loved Jill. She was just so real.. I felt her pain, and her wanting to let Cam in, and the struggles of thinking she didn’t deserve his love.. man. That resonated so deeply with me, because I have felt all those emotions.
And Cam: mister-big-sexy-fireman.. I didn’t expect to connect with him the way I did. The story is mostly told from Jill’s perspective, but that in no way took away from Cam. I don’t want to give away too much of the story, but damn.. I cried like a baby when his ‘secret’ was revealed. I cried for him, for Jill, for me, and all the while thanking the author because this is why I love reading. You want a book to break you apart so it can put you back together. And that’s exactly what this book did.
Go read this book now!! Five plus stars!
So hot…so upsetting…so swoony!! And this cover – this is my picture of Cam!! Sigh!
So my emotions ran the gamut with this one! It helps to read the FREE prequel to see how Cam and Jill meet.
So the Prologue kinda rips your heart out and then you will turn page after page to find out what happens! I like how the chapters build on their relationship from the past into the present. Cam and Jill definitely have an up and down relationship, but you can’t help hoping that Jill can get past her reluctance to commit because Cam seems to be a keeper.
And while Jill is hiding some deep pain from her past – that is NOTHING compared to the secret that Cam is keeping. Oh my! That one was a heartbreaker.
There’s more to this story than just their relationship. There’s girl power in friendship; there’s some tough work situations; there’s complicated family drama. There’s the groveling that Cameron will need to do to win Jill’s heart!
That was my favorite part! Cam showing his vulnerable side and Jill letting him in. You have to hope that these two really can find a way to make it work together. This was a new author to me, but I am definitely going to be reading more. The characters were more complex than I expected. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from cover to cover. Did I mention how much I love this cover!!??!!
