The Truth About Lies (Romance)
1 chapters   —   updated Apr 26, 2012 08:44am
Description: 'She looks back at the black mass of buildings behind her, touches the necklace that hangs around her neck and whispers “Good bye.” ' Two people, deeply in love, are forced apart through the lies and deception of someone so dark and evil that their lives are in imminent danger. This notorious crime boss is in pursuit of something that could alter governments and he will not allow anything to get in his way. When the heroine finds herself the captive of this crime boss, her love for her man is reignited and it is this love that brings them together once more.
