The only thing more dangerous than a lieโฆis the truth.
Josie Buhrman has spent the last ten years trying to escape her family and with good reason. After her fatherโs murder thirteen years prior, her mother ran away to join a cult and her twin sister Lanie, once Josieโs closest friend and confidant, betrayed her in an unimaginable way.

The only problem is that she has lied to Caleb about every detail of her pastโstarting with her last name.

Meanwhile, the unexpected death of Josieโs long-absent mother forces her to return to her Midwestern hometown where she must confront the demons from her pastโand the lies on which she has staked her future.
