When We Lied by Claire Contreras is a spicy romance that pulls you in with its intense characters and addictive storyline. Finneas Alexander Barlow, a broody, obsessed ex-hockey player, had a one-time hook-up with our heroine four years ago. Fast forward to now, and he’s back in town, determined to uncover the secret about what happened to his sister.
I love a good jerk hero and Finn was possessive and a bit obsessed with our heroine. maybe we can even say stalkerish. and he certainly thought that was a good trait. Was it sexy though? Hell yeah. There’s an intensity to him but also his attraction and chemistry with the heroine. it felt addictive and consuming. He falls hard and I loved it!
The heroine is confident, independent, and a total badass, balancing Finn’s intensity and her undeniable attraction. The competitive spirit between these two star athletes makes them such a great match.
The book dives into some difficult themes, so definitely check trigger warnings. When We Lied by Claire Contreras is a gripping read that you won’t want to put down.
