Cruel Lies is book 1 in the Cruel Secrets duet. It’s a friends to enemies to lovers, dark story. It has triggers such as sexual assault, self harm, and mental illness. This one is full of suspense, steam and so many feels. Caspian and Willow are perfect for each other. This was an enjoyable read with so many twists and turns with a cliffy. I can’t wait for book 2.

Alexander Neal and Sarah Puckett did an amazing job portraying these characters.
