Walters
uses this romantic suspense novel to tackle the issues of mental
illness, depression and suicide as well as the stigma attached to
them. She does so with great empathy and compassion. Readers will
walk away with renewed understanding of themselves whether as a
sufferer or someone who interacts with someone openly dealing with
these issues or someone living with the lies these issues speak to
them. I highly recommend the novel Living Lies.
Lane
Kent would describe herself as broken and unworthy. Her friends would
describe her as empathetic and selfless. The burden of guilt she
carried weighed heavily on her, and blinded her to the possibilities
for the future. Deputy Charlie Lynch, a former Marine, knew what he
wanted out of life, it was the reason he had come to Walton, Georgia,
and he knew it needed to include Lane Kent. Convincing her that they
had a future was something he was willing to work at for as long as
it took. The fact that Lane's life seemed to be in danger from the
perpetrator of Walton's first murder in thirty years only increased
Charlie's desire to keep her close. Fans of romantic suspense will be
excited to add Natalie Walters to their list of favorite authors.
I
am grateful to have received a copy of Living Lies from
Revell via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under
no obligation to provide a positive review and received no monetary
compensation.
