Tell Me Lies

By Jennifer Crusie
Tell Me Lies by Jennifer Crusie digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

An unfaithful husband’s untimely end has the whole town talking in “a ferociously funny, sexy read” by the New York Times–bestselling author (Redbook).

Maddie Faraday’s life in Frog Point, Ohio, would be perfect—if it weren’t for her cheating husband, her suspicious daughter, her gossipy mother, her secretive best friend, her nosy neighbors, and the bad-boy-turned-accountant she lost her virginity to twenty years ago.

And now that her husband—whose tawdry affair is far from his only dark secret—has been found dead, Maddie’s life is getting less perfect by the minute . . .

In Tell Me Lies, Jennifer Cruise dishes up a funny, sexy, suspenseful novel about small-town secrets, big-time betrayals, and the redemptive power of love, laughter, and chocolate brownies.

“An exciting, sensual romp, chock-full of mystery and intriguing characters . . . hours of fun reading.” —Library Journal

“A humorous mixture of romance, mystery, and mayhem.” —Susan Elizabeth Phillips, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Simply the Best

“A wonderfully fresh, funny, tender, and outrageous story that will delight fans of the comic mystery. There’s a hint of Susan Isaacs in her writing, but Crusie is definitely one of a kind.” —Booklist

“It was fine. Passing was the biggest issue for me. There was a lack of development in the characters and their relationships that made it difficult to stay invested. I liked the town and side characters”
