Here We Lie by Paula Treick DeBoard
4.0
Two young women, both who have secrets and tell those little 'safe' lies to make themselves be someone they are not, meet in college and become fast friends. But what happened that one summer before their senior year, tears them apart. Once the lies and secrets start to unravel, will the truth restore their friendship or keep them apart forever?
Here We Lie is an intriguing story with very interesting and memorable characters. The story starts out in the present, at a press conference, where the truth from fourteen years ago is finally going to be told. Then the author takes us back to that time in the past where it all started. The author does a wonderful job of weaving friendship and animosity, the past and the future, the lies and the truths—to create a chain of events that is so timely in today's world.
I was immediately drawn into this story and was impressed with the author's wonderful way with words. She is a new-to-me author but I will definitely be checking into her other books.
