Ever pick up a book expecting a light fun read and end up with a life lesson instead?It took me three hours to read this book from cover to cover - I didn't move! It starts with a dramatic bang and then takes you on a ride. Just when you think you've read this before, the author throws in an original twist and you're along for the ride. Christina is a conflicted and confused heroine that you still like and identify with. Steven is a god among men but still very, very human. I finished reading an...more
Sweet Little Lies was a very good read. Michelle Grant writes a very fast moving story of a younger man-older woman who's afraid to give her heart because of her 3 failed proposals. Christina Brinsley is beautful, smart, articulate and hurt. Steven Williams fine, sexy and smart is her delivery man who happens to be delivering wedding gifts to her as she breaks up with her 3rd Fiance. They become acquaintances on a plane ride to NYC where they have to seated next to each other. Thus begans a whil...more

Christina Brinsley has had more than her fair share of heart breaks. Unfortunately, she`s been close to the altar twice and it`s looking like the third time is so NOT the charm. Instead of falling off the face of the earth, a business trip to New York allows Christina to get a little more acquainted with her ex-delivery guy, Steven. A handsome, younger man, Steven is just what the break up gods ordered. While they both agree upfront that the undeniable chemistry between them is nothing...more

I truly believe that some writers and musicians only have one really good book or album in them. Usher's Confessions was great, Raymond v. Raymond not so much. Sean Paul's Dutty Rock was enough to make me spend a year flying back and forth to Jamaica trying to capture the essence of which he sang. Everything he's put out since then is just meh. Do you see where I'm going with this? So I was worried when I received Sweet Little Lies. What if it wasn't as good as the author's first book, Heard It...more
Such a great read. You can really see the progress from her first book to this one. The dialogue is witty, the characters are fully formed and the story makes sense. The hero Steven is so well written you not only fall in love with him, you want someone to sell you the clone DNA.
As a women who has felt "fed up with love" Christina's story resonated with me.

Loved this book! I won't give an in depth overview of the book because I'm sure it's already been done. I hope that there is a seqeul, I would love to see how this couple works through the challenges of married life. It would also be interesting to get a deeper look into Carey and Collin's life. Overall, great read.
Loved this book. This book has it all, its funny, dramatic, relatable, and has life lessons. Steven and Christina were just so perfect for each other. I needs a sequel Michele Grant. Everybody should read this book. The main characters are black but they could just as easily be white/mexican/asian, etc...
Wow! That's all I can say. I'm not one of those people who love to read ChickLit all the time, but this book right here was brilliant. I loved Grant's style of writing. She made characters so realistic to me. When I fall in love with the main male character, then you know this was a good read! RECOMMEND RECOMMEND!!!
Pheeew....what a book this was. I was hooked just a couple of pages in and it didn't let me go until the end. It took me longer to read because I had to savour it.I definitely wasn't ready to let the book and the characters go just yet!
I love the way this author writes her characters because they are so realistic. She also does a good job of using them to make one self-reflect which always a good thing.

I'll admit it - I liked Heard It All Before but I LOVED Sweet Little Lies. I felt like the author was sitting next to me telling me a story. It's fresh and fun and even though there's a little drama, there's a lot of feel good. I'll read this one again and again.

I loved this book! Oh my goodness, it was so yummy! She needs to write 3 more of these as soon as possible.
My review will be posted at Urban Reviews on www.urbanreviewsonline.com this month.
Great book. Funny and heart felt.
A page turner indeed.
The ending was too easy to be believable. Not sure if i would forgive so quickly and completely.
My review will appear on Urban Reviews. I will share a snippet of it once it goes live.
I have to say...I loved this book. Sweet Little Lies was my first book by Michele Grant. It was definitely a page turner. I hated to put it down. I loved, loved, LOVED the character of Steven. I would put him up there with my favorite romance heroes....funny, smart, sexy...my type of guy. I would definitely recommend this book.
