A town that looks like a postcard. A family built on secrets. A grave that was never meant to be found.
My mother dies and leaves me a house full of secrets.
I return to Wicked Falls, planning to settle her estate and leave. Instead, someone tries to run me off a mountain road.
Then I find a photograph of a girl with my eyes. A girl who vanished twenty years ago.
The deeper I dig, the more I uncover a powerful family, buried records, and a town built on lies.
And then there's Callum Aldrich.
The man everyone fears.
The man I should never trust.
Callum knows more than he's telling me. I know it.
But every secret pulls us closer together, even as the danger grows.
In Wicked Falls, the truth doesn't set you free.
It makes you the next grave.
Buried Lies is a dark gothic small-town romantic suspense featuring a morally gray hero, a fierce heroine, family secrets, forbidden attraction, buried bodies, scorching chemistry, and a love story forged in the middle of a century-old conspiracy.
