Book Review: House of BS & Lies by Lani Lynn Vale

 


 I have chosen House of BS & Lies by Lani Lynn Vale to review. 



I received an ARC copy of the e-book for an honest review of this book.

---------------------------------------------------
Here is a brief description from Amazon:
She was enraptured by the man they called Romeo the moment that he turned those butterscotch-colored eyes her way.
What wasn’t to love about a big, burly, plaid-wearing lumberjack?

He was tall, gorgeous, and knew how to wield a chainsaw better than Leatherface. He could fell a tree in seconds, had thighs that were as thick as said trees, filled out a pair of Wranglers better than any cowboy ever, and didn’t care that she could operate heavy machinery better than him.

He was everything a girl like Mable could ask for.

The caveat? He was a convicted felon that’d just escaped from prison, faked his death, and ran from his home in Texas to the mountains of Montana.

At first, Mable didn’t know what kind of man he’d been before coming to her small, mountain town. He led Mable into a false sense of security, made her fall madly, deeply, and irrevocably in love with him, and then shocked her by sharing his darkest secret.

Now, she’s left reeling, thinking life couldn’t get more complicated.

Until she finds out her stepmother knows Romeo’s secret and plans to exploit him. To make matters worse, Romeo goes on the run to protect Mable from himself, and she realizes that she has a dark side, too. One that’ll stop at nothing, not even murder, to make sure that he can live free.
---------------------------------------------------

First book in the Don't Date Him series.  Wow!! What Mable had to live through with an evil stepmother and stepsister.  My favorite line from the evil stepmother is “Oh, don’t be so dramatic,” my “mother” drawled. “You’re being a little extra, aren’t you?”

Great read!  Emotional!! Amazing start for the new series!  I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
CAWFILE: 10.0
