Prince of Lies


I wanted to start this the day it came out, but sometimes I need an angst-free romance (or an angst-filled mystery...which doesn't help the anxiety at. all.). Either way, here I am, starting Lucy Lennox's brand new novel "Prince of Lies" a little later than I had originally tended (but better late than never).

["Rowe Prince is a lying liar who windmills into my life in full color, claiming to be Sterling Chase, a quirky, eccentric billionaire… and founder of the company I created.

Two can play at the lying game, though, and I’m not about to let some burrito-delivering, floppy-haired virgin from Indiana best me at a game I was born to play.

So I do him one better and pretend to be Sterling Chase’s new assistant. I’ll teach him a lesson that will hopefully wind us both up in bed… with nothing but the truth between us.

But it turns out his shameless lies are enchanting… unintentionally hilarious… and make it all too easy to forget the truth…

Until I learn that this cutie’s intent is to defraud the company I’ve spent years building. I have to choose: risk the company or say goodbye to the man I’m falling for. A guy who just might be…

The Prince of Lies"]

Except there wasn't nearly as much angst as I thought, because Rowe can't lie for shit. 

I mean, there's still the whole secret-identity thing (among a few other bits of juicy drama), but it was almost like a Cinderella story...if the prince knew Cinderella was just a poor girl in a magic dress ("did I want the business deal or the fairy tale"--fucking hell, now I'm crying).

This book was soooooo goooooood D: I want the rest of the series right now (or like, yesterday).
