When We Lied
by Claire Contreras
I'm so disappointed that this book wasn't for me. I've heard such good things about Until I Get You (which I haven't read) that I was so excited to receive this ALC.
This review is for the audio version of this book and I thought the narrators did a great job. Stephen Dexter is my favorite alien romance narrator and it was fun to hear him voice something completely different.
That said, this book fell really flat for me. It was about 200 pages too long, very slow pacing, and the romance didn't make sense at all. First Finn was suspicious of Joselyn, and the next he's just obsessed and then in love with her. Usually I EAT UP a possessive stalker types, but in this they just felt too young for any of that to stick in any kind of romantic way.
There is also a mystery in this and by the end when we get the plot twist I just didn't care.
The romance has no chemistry and the spicy scenes, though there are many, did not do anything for me. This guy is supposed to own a sex club, but he never makes use of it with the girl he loves! I guess I expected something kinkier and hotter, but it's all pretty boring.
Thank you to NetGalley for the ALC of this book!
