A review by blackgirltiredbooks
Of Lilies And Lies by Margaux Porter
5.0
I just want to start this off I knew when I received this book it was a romance book, but was not expecting how darn romantic it was... and everyone deserves a Greer that can speak to you like your the most precious individual in the world and love on you unconditionally.
The emotional gymnastics this books takes you on it crazy...I was to the point I had to literally put the book down to walk off the extreme emotional reaction I had to Greer and Kit individual and couple situations. This was a lesson in growth emotionally from both of these characters. Kit went through years of abuse and at the same time finding herself a widow, but didn't believe it because of all the trauma she endured. This relationship was a serendipity fate moment meeting a man at the gas station and months later to being with this man who was a stranger before...this was like souls reaching out for its other halves to become whole. Greer a man who has a lot of soul searching he needs to make peace with and a heart that needs mending finds closure and healing with Kit. Both Kit and Greer are pulling at your heart strings as they weave through trauma, mistrust, and self discovery.
I enjoyed that the author wrote it from the POV of both characters it brought a lot of depth into the story and made the emotional parts so much more realistic. Greer is a classic man, a romantic man, a broken man, a man who says his love and shows it. I enjoyed this damn book so much that I am literally starting over reading it again because this is no way a debut book because GAWD...it is so good. I literally had tears in my eyes for some scenes in this book because it really had me in love with these characters.
Yes ...this is a great and awesome read !
