He was my uncle’s friend, and I was too young for him. But in the heat of the moment, against the wall in a darkened hallway of an illicit club, none of those things mattered. It was just one night of giving in to what we both wanted. I never expected to see him two years later, sitting across me during a family dinner, encouraging me to do my internship for his business. On day one we both agree …
On day one we both agree that repeating that night would be a mistake. But it’s a mistake we can’t help but make again and again.
The rules are simple. We can’t tell my uncle. We have to be content with our hotel rendezvous. And we won’t fall in love.
But we both know we’re liars.

This age-gap romance was so much fun to read. Not only does it have a steamy rating of 10+, but it also has scenes that made me laugh out loud. I loved Kent and Olivia’s journey–their banter, the seduction, their daringness. The risks they took in somewhat public places was a fantasy come to life, so to speak. It certainly helped set the stage for Kent and Olivia’s romance and kept me glued to the pages.
Obviously, Liar was super hot since Kent has specific proclivities that lean towards dominance, control, and reaching for the ultimate high. But Liar is also a story about needing acceptance, fighting for what you want–what makes you happy, and learning about self-worth.
Kent and Olivia had an immediate, lust-filled connection two years ago that left an unforgettable impression on them both. When they meet again unexpectedly, sparks fly and the denial begins. But from the denial,a beautiful love takes over.
Kent and Olivia made an awesome couple and the side characters made the book so much fun. Liar can be read as a stand alone but it also has characters from other books. You may benefit from reading the prequel called Watch With Me before Liar, but you can enjoy the others after Liar.
Liar by Fiona Cole is the story of Alexander Kent and Olivia. There is a prequel to this book that has the encounter Kent and Olivia had. It is called ‘Watch With Me’ which is free on Amazon as of this posting. So I do feel you should read that before starting this one as I think it helped me to enjoy and understand their story. Their encounter was a a little while from this start of this book but it of course is part of their story. Olivia is in need of a internship to help with her college requirement which leads to Kent filling that role. Olivia hadn’t really seen each other since their time together. Kent is part owner in the Voyeur Club that her Uncle is part owner too. They can’t forget their encounter nor can they stop themselves from continuing to fulfill their needs together. But he is almost twice her age not to mention the family connection and family business connection.
For me this was a hot spicy read! I love the older man younger women theme with the hint of the forbidden.
Liar is one heck of a hot and steamy forbidden romance read!! Kent & Olivia sure heated up my kindle and I loved every minute of their story. The banter, the teasing, the flirting – the chemistry was off the charts. The age difference between them at times was quite obvious, but once they were behind closed doors or under the sheets, that didn’t matter at all. Definitely another wonderful addition to the Voyeur series!!
Can’t wait to see how it all ends with Daniel’s story next – I’m even more curious about him now!
Great idea for a story but poorly executed. Very little character development or chemistry shown between the two. Vague descriptions of the MC, she is blonde hair blue eyes and he has salt and pepper beard. That’s it no more information.
Very immature heroine too.
Liar reminded me once again what I absolutely love about forbidden age gap romances. Full of tension, passion, and angst this delicious slowburn kept me captivated until the last page. I loved Kent and Olivia’s relationship from their witty banter and ability to see the other for who they truly were to their steamy moments that threatened to cause my Kindle to burst into flames. As if that wasn’t enough to keep me riveted I was then hit with all the feels and just like that I was in reader’s heaven. Liar is a must read if you enjoy fantastic feel good reads with plenty of heat to singe your finger and lots of feels that you just can’t get enough of.
A couple years ago Olivia had the hottest night of her life in the club Voyeur. She’s never forgotten that night or the man who rocked her world. But she figured she’d never see him again and that he’d have to stay as a very hot memory. Until the night she shows up for family dinner and he’s there. Kent. Her Uncle’s best friend…Yep!
Whew, Liar is steaming hot!!! Kent and Olivia’s forbidden love story is fraught with delicious tension and angst, but through it all, I was rooting for this unlikely couple. What did I like most? In a word – Kent. He’s alpha af, but with a core of vulnerability and is actually a sweetheart who just needed the right sassy, bold woman to bring him to his playboy knees. I had a harder time with Olivia, though, because she was so wishy washy and immature near the end, and it just emphasized the age gap between the two. Eventually she made the right decision, though, and I was able to give her a pass and just enjoy the story. I’ve really been liking this Voyeur series and can’t wait for more.
Of all the characters Fiona has created in this world, Alexander Kent is my absolute favorite! He’s mature, often aloof, but playfully mischievous- and SO DAMN SEXY! The Voyuer universe has been my favorite place to play since Fiona first introduced Oaklyn and Callum. Coming back to Olivia feels like it’s all come full circle. Well done Ms. Cole. Another scorching hot read!!
Liar by Fiona Cole is everything I love in a forbidden romance. What is it about a much older man and a naïve younger woman that intrigues me?
I LOVED Kent and Olivia. Mrs Cole delivers the perfect combination of steaminess, angst, and sexiness that drew me on from the first page.
Mrs Cole’s writing style is top notch. I know going into each and every book that I’ll get not only an intriguing, angsty, not easily forgettable storyline, but she will bring in all kinds of sexiness and steamy heat that I am captivated with. Liar was no exception. I devoured it and still wanted more. I highly recommend this must read book. Definitely a top book of 2020 for me.
So much yum in this book! Olivia and Kent blew me away with their attraction, lust, and chemistry. It’s the perfect age-gap romance! It’s a touch forbidden since he’s her uncle’s best friend. When they come together, it’s explosive. A touch of BDSM from Kent, some sass from Olivia, and a connection perfectly written.
What I especially loved about this forbidden love was that the Uncle knew all about Kent’s history, desires and preferences. He KNEW what Kent liked, and it made for some hilariously awkward situations.
Olivia was the perfectly written counterpart to Kent who was older and experienced. She’s a college student who’s a bit forward thinking, but still has a lot to figure out. He comes in at just the right time to show her just what love and passion is about.
Their journey to their HEA was hot, sexy, and left absolutely nothing to the imagination. A bit of angst, just enough laughs, a ton of sexy, and a feel-good love story.
Kent and Olivia are everything! Another amazing book in the Voyeur world.
A chance meeting, then two years later another run in, this time its the one that matters.
This couple is hot! Older man-younger woman but both know what they want and it’s each other. Question is how will they get past her family?!?
The love scenes are super steamy and kindles everywhere are melting. It’s what we know from Fiona. Incredible writing and fantastic stories.
I can’t wait for Daniels story!
I purchased this ebook via Amazon and leaving my review voluntarily.
Triggers? Only if the older man – younger woman storyline offends you.
**spoilers**
I really have enjoyed the storyline centered around the Voyeur Club. I read the prequel to this story and liked it.
In the prequel, Olivia is hurt when she finds her bf cheating on her. She goes to her uncle’s sex club and meets/hooks up with her uncle’s bff Kent. Kent and Olivia agree it was just the one night.
Fast forward 2 years. Olivia is finishing college and having sex with her ex bf, the cheater. I almost stopped reading at this point because I thought shes an idiot. If she wanted sex w/o commitment there are plenty of guys she could’ve hooked up with. Then Olivia meets Kent again and gets an internship at his company. The attraction is there but they both try to deny their feelings. Of course they get together again, multiple times, but they keep it quiet, partly because of work and more so because Olivia doesn’t want her uncle “to be disappointed” in her. This is where I started losing interest and thought Kent needs to find an actual adult woman, not one who is too young to make an adult decision to go public with her adult relationship, especially after they both confess to loving each other.
Eventually things work out, everybody knows about them and they get together.
I give Olivia/Kent 3 stars and the writing/overall story/other characters 4 stars.
I started Liar (Voyeur series Book 5) journey since last year when the lovely Fiona Cole decided to torture her readers with the most teasing story ever! I read Kent and Olivia’s love story through her newsletter, I cannot even tell you how insane she made me feel every time I received it, I had lots of raging emotions within me. Love, lust, anxiety, giddy, to name some…
I loved this book in the newsletter format but lort reading it as a full length novel, dayum was AMAZING! It had every element that I die-hard love/lust in it:
Age-gap √
Forbidden Romance √
Steamy Love Scenes √√√
Well Defined Plot √
Lovable Characters √
So, in a nutshell, I fell in love with both Olivia and Kent. They are just perfect! I cannot wait ti see what Mrs. Cole has in store for us this 2020 but I can definitely say, that I’ll be reading it
I couldn’t wait to read this book and its everything I could want and more! Fiona Cole knows how to bring the heat, the angst, and all the feels. I couldn’t ask for a better forbidden, age-gap romance. Olivia is a woman who knows what she wants and is willing to take the risks to get it. Kent can only hold out for so long before the desire and temptation all but consumes him. And when these two are together it’s an all encompassing explosion of need that bursts through like an avalanche. I just couldn’t get enough! And I’m dying for the next book in the Voyeur World!
Olivia and Kent’s story was filled with all the tension and angst I have grown to love from this author. Olivia is a dynamic young character who ends up falling for her Uncle’s best friend. I loved Kent’s transformation during this story and as always he is an incredibly strong character with the soft underbelly. Their story really does come together while fighting the self imposed hurdles and obstacles. And once again I love how the stories are interconnected so we still get glimpses of other characters.
Fiona Cole has done it again! Liar is sweet, sexy, angtsy, romantic, and really just perfect! It’s an age-gap romance that once again proves age is just a number. Kent is the best dirty talking man. Olivia is the right mix of mature beyond her years and inexperienced 20 something. Their HEA was the best ride.
**ARC provided in exchange for an honest review**
Welcome back to the Voyeur world! We FINALLY get Kent and Olivia’s story in Liar! Fiona Cole is one of my two favorite queens of taboo, and this book was no exception!
Kent is the epitome of the perfect book boyfriend: cocky, dirty-talking, sexy AF alpha male. He has a one night stand with his best friend’s (much) younger niece Olivia, and then they reunite when she interns at his hotel.
Kent and Olivia’s chemistry is off the charts, and I swear Fiona’s ability to write a steamy scene just keeps getting better and better. Holy smokes!
Overall, Liar had a solid plot, and flawed, yet strong characters that you can’t help but fall in love (lust?) with. I would DEFINITELY recommend reading it, however would strongly suggest reading the previous books in the Voyeur world, so you understand the backstories of the minor characters.
This was my first book by Fiona Cole. I can tell you I will be reading more of her and can’t wait for her next release. She is a great writer and really puts heart and feelings in her books also keeping it steaming hot.
Olivia and Kent in this book are made for each other. The hang up is their age difference and that Kent is Olivia’s uncle’s best friend and business partner. They are very hot together but have the age different problems but that’s all I’m saying. I’m not spoiling it for you. I highly recommend this book. By Kristina
“I’m not fucking anyone, Olivia, because I can’t stomach the idea of being with anyone else. I can’t stomach you being with someone else. So, whether it’s been talked about or not, I’m exclusive to you.” *all the swooning*
Damn you Kent for being such a swoony sexy bastard!!
Fiona Cole goes and does it again.. she’s freaking amazing writing these Forbidden Romance books.
As soon as we were told Olivia and Kent were getting a book I was like FUCK YES!!!
I bloody love older man/younger woman books. They’re my freaking jam haha. Plus Kent is Olivia’s uncle’s best friend so helloooo forbidden story.
I loved EVERYTHING about this book. The story was freaking fab and all the characters I just freaking love. All except one A-a-ron haha what a complete douchebag he was lol.
Well done Fiona on another amazing read xx
Um wow another great book to the voyer series! Olivia and Kent’s story is steamy older male younger female but whew def yummy! Kent is olivias uncles best friend which could also be a problem. What would happen if her family finds out exp her uncle which is his best friend! A must read! Can’t wait to read Daniels story!
Fiona Cole writes the kind of romance that I crave and every time I get my hands on one of her stories, I immediately drop everything that I am doing and dive right in because I enjoy getting lost in the Voyeur world she has created for a few hours. This interconnected standalone series has managed to wiggle its way deep into my soul and just when I think I couldn’t possibly fall any more in love with these characters I find myself wholeheartedly addicted to every part of them.
Kent and Olivia’s story was EVERYTHING that I want in a forbidden age-gap romance and I couldn’t get enough of these two. I know I say this each time, but I think that they might just be my new favorite Fiona Cole couple to date. Their chemistry set my soul on FIRE and my heartstrings were aching as I inhaled all the words. Falling for your uncle’s best friend and business partner might not have been the best choice for our dear sweet little Olivia, but hooking up with him in the first place wasn’t very smart either. One taste of him could never be enough for her and she soon realizes that he might just be her happily ever after, if only she can get over her fears. Kent is my ultimate book boyfriend. He is beyond sexy with cocky attitude and oh boy is he one of the best dirty talkers ever. He consumed me with emotions and I fell deeply in love with his heart of gold!
Liar is a MUST read and I know you all will agree with me. These two couldn’t be more perfect for one another and now I can’t wait to see what Fiona Cole brings us next!
