Lies Lies Lies by Adele Parks
5.0

Well I don’t know where to start....I was apprehensive to read this as the first and last Adele Parks book I’d read (and not finished) was not great (stranger in my home).

But I was delighted to have been proven wrong and enjoyed this book so much. It was gripping, heart stopping and a great page turner. The twists (lies) emerged at the right time.

Daisy was such an instantly likeable character and so was Simon despite his addiction. I felt their pain and their love for each other. There were points in the boom when I was shouting in my head at Daisy to stand up for herself just as you would watching an ITV Drama shouting at the TV. At points I was confused but had worked out poor Daisy had been a victim and she had done he upmost to protect her child as any mother would.

The one plot I didn’t expect was revealed whilst Simon was serving his time. My mouth literally dropped open and my heart was racing to keep reading.

The only gripe I have was the ending as I wanted more....
