What this book is about
The second Love Me with Lies novel is narrated by Leah Smith, who has spent the first novel manipulating her way into Caleb's life and keeping him from his true love, Olivia. Fisher writes Leah as a calculating and self-aware villain — a narrator the reader is never meant to trust or like, but whose perspective is compulsively readable. The psychological manipulation is the engine of the series. Dark romance thriller for adult readers.
