False

It all started with the bereavement flowers with my name on them. Not the best way to wake up. I work in a flower shop. I know a funeral arrangement when I see one. I know a killer when I see one, too. And one is standing in my hospital room right now, straight behind the man who saved my life.

I can’t tell anyone the truth, because that’s the fastest way to really die. So I do the next best thing. I “lose” my memory. I fake my amnesia. Pretending not to remember a brutal attempted murder has its perks – the killer is backing down, loosening the noose. The less I claim to recall, the more my rescuer, Duff, works to help me “remember.” I hate lying to him. But my memory is dangerous. To me. And to him.

She thinks she’s fooled me. But I’ve known almost all along. Lily is hiding something, a secret so big she came out of a year-long coma and her first instinct was to lie. Who does that? Someone who is terrified. It’s my job to take that fear away. My partner and I have spent countless hours hunting the cold-blooded killer. Meanwhile, Lily’s spent her waking hours recovering. Getting stronger. Getting smarter. Staying beautiful. Never get emotionally involved – that’s my dictate. But when you realize you’re caught in a triangle, there is no exit. Lily’s shooter knows she’s my weakness. And he’s about to exploit that.

This isn’t how my life is supposed to end. A case of mistaken identity got me here. No one is ever who we think they are – especially my kidnapper, a man whose entire life is designed to deceive. Powerful people want my rescuer to die. I’m just a lure. A pawn. But I know Duff. He will do everything to protect me. He never gives up.

Shot in the head in a case of mistaken identity and comatose for over a year, Lily wakes to find her assassin standing right in the room – and her only option is to pretend she remembers nothing.

As dark forces work to eliminate Lily and erase evidence of an even deeper conspiracy, she must rely on her wits and the dedication of her rescuer, Duff, who is falling for a woman he’s not supposed to love. Featuring a cat-and-mouse thriller pace, a love triangle forged in danger, and a heroine whose greatest weapon is the lie she tells to stay alive, this series delivers gripping suspense, emotional depth, and a romance tested by deception from every direction. Readers who love psychological thrillers with unreliable narrators, forbidden attraction, and conspiracies that run deeper than anyone imagines will find the False series impossible to put down.
