Book: One Little Lie

Author: Colleen Coble

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Release Date: March 3, 2020

It started with one little lie. But Jane Hardy will do everything in her power to uncover the truth in this gripping new romantic suspense.

Jane Hardy is appointed interim sheriff in Pelican Harbor, Alabama, after her father retires, but there’s no time for an adjustment period. When her father is arrested for theft and then implicated in a recent murder, Jane quickly realizes she’s facing someone out to destroy the only family she has.

After escaping with her father from a cult fifteen years ago, Jane has searched relentlessly for her mother—who refused to leave—ever since. Could someone from that horrible past have found them?

Reid Bechtol is well-known for his documentaries, and his latest project involves covering Jane’s career. Jane has little interest in the attention, but the committee who appointed her loves the idea of the publicity.

Jane finds herself depending on Reid’s calm manner as he follows her around filming, and they begin working together to clear her father. But Reid has his own secrets from the past, and the gulf between them may be impossible to cross—especially once her father’s lie catches up with him.

My Thoughts

"One Little Lie" kept me on the edge of my seat wandering what was going to happen. I always am intrigued when the "bad guy" is one of the characters we follow through a story. I found the book to be well written and with a nice pace and flow. It was easy to read. I figured out a little bit of the secret of the book, but didn't know what else was going on or who was committing the murders. I like when I am surprised by a book. There is a little bit of a unresolved story line as far as the romance of the book, so I was a little disappointed that it wasn't a complete happily-ever-after. I look forward to reading more books by Colleen Coble.
