NEW ADULT
Deceiving Lies - Molly McAdams (2014)
In this second book in the Forgiving Lies series, Rachel and Kash have finally escaped from their lives in Texas and are hoping that with their wedding coming up, that life will start to get back to normal. Kash returns to the force after being undercover and finally putting the drug lords behind bars where they belong. All goes well until their home is broken into and Rachel is taken. All that remains is a warning message from the gang. Kash has already nearly lost her once and he refuses to do it again. One of Rachel's captors takes a shine to her and she nicknames him Taylor because he is a Taylor Lautner lookalike. Trent for the past months has been watching Rachel and has fallen in love with her and will do everything in his power to protect her yet follow orders from his gang leader at the same time. Unlike Forgiving Lies which was a bit more edgier, Deceiving Lies is, despite its dramatic plot, more of a romantic story. The last chapter leaves readers in anticipation as Rachel makes the decision to which guy will be her forever man. Make sure you read Forgiving Lies first though. (PP)
