I love a bad boy, I love an athlete who’s a got a “reputation “ so this was the perfect story for me!
Dominic is known for a bad attitude, unpredictable behavior and being a tough football player.. some would say dirty player.
Faith is sunshine, sweetness and a genuinely good person. Despite being from a wealthy and famous family she’s down to earth and works to better others lives.
Dominic is the new guy on Faith’s mom’s football team and he’s in trouble day one.
So, he’s told to do volunteer work for Faith’s charities. The two clash immediately, they both have strong impression’s of the other.
There’s banter and hostility… you see where this is going

Another touchdown!
I initially read another book by Karla Sorenson that had one of the Ward sisters in it and I fell in love. Reading this book that gave life to some of the characters in initially listed in that book was incredible. Dominic and Faith stole my heart out of my chest and rebuilt it for me. I laughed, cried, and did so much more? I can’t wait to read Lydia’s story!!

Part of this book was like watching a slow-motion trainwreck. It's called The Lie, after all, and we get that pie relatively early, and as the relationship between them continues to grow in a surprisingly beautiful way, the weight of that lie grows and grows and we know it is going to hit them like a wrecking ball. It hurts to watch, but we can't look away.
These are two great characters. And while Dominic is unquestionably flawed, his POV chapters are done perfectly because we can see his big heart, and that he doesn't want to be this angry person but has no ability to regulate his temper.
Faith sees his big heart too, but this book gets 5 stars because hallelujah for a FMC who sees the heart of the flawed man, and loves him while knowing he loves her, but says she deserves better. That he has to fix himself because she respects herself too much to allow herself to be treated that way, despite how much she loves him. Faith is wonderful here, and inspiring. She can love him, help him, without letting herself be a doormat. She doesn't need him to be perfect, but she requires him to be someone she can trust with her heart.
And in the end, the two of them are perfect for each other. She inspires him to embrace the better version of himself, and he inspires her to let go a little, take joy from surprises.

Simply because the main character did not put up with toxic behavior, and actually stood up for herself such a rare moment in romance it feels like these days

UGH
DNF 22%. Dominic is the most y likable piece of crap I’ve ever read. He’s a little ungrateful brat who likes to play victim. Oh, they’re all so mean to me. Why aren’t they praising me and appreciating me after I give them absolutely no reason and treat them like shit. Of course no one likes you! You’re literally the worst. Boowhoo you had a tragedy in the family but it gives him no right to be such a prick. Ugh I’m so annoyed.
