My 4 star review of Hidden In Lies
My first book by Ms. Duncan and it won't be my last! I really enjoyed the set up and the plot was well thought out, and I was definitely surprised by the ending- but there will be a book two!!
Elizabeth has a great life, she has the guy, the money, and all she has to do is smile and wave alongside her senator husband. Her parents married for love and were poor, so Elizabeth's mother groomed her to date a certain kind of man. But marrying for money doesn't make you happy all the time, and Elizabeth is super unhappy.
Enter Alex Matthews- an ex-Army special forces soldier, who is assigned the task of protecting of Elizabeth during her husbands run for Presidency. And Elizabeth then begins to feel something she hasn't felt in years when she looks at Alex.
I really liked the book- I loved the characters and I fell in love with Alex! I can't wait for book two and more of this story!!

Who needs love when you have money?
It used to be enough, but now it’s not.
Not since he walked into my life and made me question everything.
Now I want more, but I know that’s impossible.
Things aren’t always as they seem.
My true self is hidden, and that works for me.
Or it did.
I hide in a bed of deception to disguise myself, and I’m good at it.
Or I was.
I’m Elizabeth Fitzgerald.
I’m a Senator’s wife.
And I hate my life.
After a few minutes, he says, “I know there’s more to you, Elizabeth. I can tell there’s someone hidden inside you dying to come out. I can see it in the fake smile you show everyone, including Cal, the way you frown when you’re alone in your thoughts, and the sadness that’s lurking in your eyes. Why are you hiding?”
God help me, but there’s something in the way he speaks to me that makes me want to lay all my secrets and sins bare. He’s soft and gentle, but most importantly, I believe he wants to know more about me. He’s not asking to gain leverage or use it to his advantage, he’s genuinely concerned. And it makes me want to tell him everything. But the rational side of my brain tells me not to, so I reel in this strange impulse to divulge my secrets to a man I hardly know.
