[All the Lies 01] • Lies That Bind Us (Beautiful White Lies Book 1)

“Clare delivers a sensual, riveting romantic thriller.” - J. Kenner, NYT bestselling author

His darkness is her salvation.

I feel Will’s presence everywhere, and I know that he follows me. When my sister is murdered, he’s there to help, urging me to accept his protection.

Everything my family led me to believe is a lie.

Will Hastings is my truth. He is beautiful and powerful and ambitious, and he eases my soul like no one before him. He’s a ruthless man with twisted secrets, but I don’t care. I have nothing more to lose.

My seven-year-old niece has everything to lose.

We take Lissie to his home for refuge, crossing an ocean to settle in England. Will’s stately country house is our sanctuary, but it’s his sensual and commanding authority that becomes my home and strengthens me.

While assassins bide their time, waiting to strike again, Will and I vow to win. We promise to live. The obsession—this intense love story of ours—is the one thing we might not survive.

Winner of four national independent book awards.
