This book was so funny and cute the couple in this book did not hold anything back. The female took no crap and was so headstrong I was what is going to come out her mouth next like she stood toe to toe with Callum. The book was wild and sexy like I was waiting for the other shoe to fall. I can’t wait to see more of these in the next story. #bookstagram #books #bookworm #booklover #bookish #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookblogging #booktok #igreads #insttabooks #booksbookboooks #kindlepaperwhite #bookobsessed #bookstagrammer

As usual, this author knocks the banter, the tension, the spice, out of the park. I was thoroughly entertained the entire time I was reading this. Was I surprised that Callum was a little nutty? No. I started putting the pieces together almost immediately. Did it have me giggling and swinging my feet anyway? Definitely.

Yet still, my favorite thing she does is weaving old characters into new stories. I fell in love with her as a writer reading her Beautiful Cruel series and I always get so excited when one of Black boys appear somewhere else. It brings me an unexplainable feeling of excitement when they show up and the worlds in stories I love from this author are connected.

I’m excited to see where these new characters appear in this world, again. And I’m obviously excited to see the Thirteen again. Hopefully someday we get a book with all of them, at the same time.

Many laugh out loud moments, the twist was sort of predictable but it had a great resolution. Loveable characters even with their flaws. A book to read quickly in a day when looking for a romance with some darkness and craziness. MMC is definitely a pretty dark shade of grey, but loved him anyway.
Editing this review because
after many books, this character is one of the darkest I’ve read so far and I’m really into mafia romances lol

Oh, let me tell you about this.

From the moment I started reading, I knew I was in for something special. The twist in the plot? Yeah, I figured that out early on, but boy, the 'why' behind it had me hooked like a fish on a line. I just couldn't stop reading until I uncovered all the secrets.

Now, let's talk about Callum. Oh, Callum. He's the epitome of that domineering yet sweet kind of guy that I adore in romance novels. His possessive and obsessive behavior? I have to admit, it had my heart fluttering. I couldn't get enough of him, and the way he interacted with Emery was just magnetic. Their chemistry was off the charts, and it made their romance so intense and addictive.

Emery, our leading lady, was an absolute force to be reckoned with. I loved her from the moment she appeared on the pages. Her humor, quick comebacks, and independence were like a breath of fresh air. I found myself laughing so many times throughout the book because of her wit and charm. She's the kind of protagonist I admire—strong, sassy, and unapologetically herself.

The banter between Callum and Emery was pure gold. It had me grinning like a fool, and I couldn't help but get emotionally invested in their journey. It felt so real, and their relationship development was beautifully written.

J.T. Geissenger's writing is simply amazing. The way she blended humor, romance, and mystery is masterful. I was completely absorbed in the story, and the whole experience was just so enjoyable.

"Liars Like Us" is an absolute must-read. I couldn't recommend it enough. Trust me, you'll be laughing, swooning, and feeling all the emotions right along with Emery and Callum. It's a journey you won't want to miss for the world.
