The Lover's Lie

💋🗡️ THE LOVER’S LIE 🗡️💋
He said he loved her.
He said he’d never leave.
He never said who he really was.

When reclusive bookstore owner Nina Vale falls for a mysterious, soft-spoken customer named Julian Cross, it feels like fate. He’s attentive, gentle, curious about her past but never pushy. In just a few months, they’re inseparable. Nina’s walls come down. Her nightmares fade. For once, she feels safe. 📚☕🌧️

Until the night Julian disappears.
And her face is splashed across the news as "a person of interest." 📰🔍💄

In his wake, Julian leaves behind no ID, no records—only a trail of false names, a hidden burner phone, and a photo of Nina she never knew was taken… months before they ever met.

🕯️ SHE THOUGHT SHE KNEW HIM.
SHE WAS NEVER MEANT TO.

As detectives circle and strangers begin asking the wrong questions, Nina starts digging into the man she let into her home, her heart—and possibly her grave.

What she uncovers:
— A connection to a string of "accidental" deaths.
— A dead woman who looked just like her.
— And a name whispered in fear by someone in protective custody:
"Julian Cross isn’t real. But he always finds a new face to love." 🖋️🗝️📸

Now Nina must unravel the truth before someone else writes her ending—because Julian’s lie wasn’t just romantic.
It was ritual.
And she's next in line.

🖤 The Lover’s Lie is a gripping psychological thriller about the illusions we fall for, the danger of being chosen, and how love can be the perfect disguise.
Perfect for fans of The Last Mrs. Parrish, You, and Gone Girl—where the monster says I love you first… then disappears.

Some men ghost you.
Others bury you. 🔪💔📖
