Author Note
Hello reader friend,
If you haven’t read my books before, you might not know this, but I write darker stories that can be upsetting and disturbing. My books and main characters aren't for the faint of heart. I don’t do trigger warnings, but if you need one, then my books are probably not for you.
If you, however, have read my other books, get ready for another twisted journey with complicated characters and intense passion you all love to hate.
All The Lies is the first book of a duet and is NOT standalone.
Lies & Truths Duet:
#1 All The Lies
#2 All The Truths

When lies become the truth.
My name is Reina Ellis.
Popular.
Beautiful.
Untouchable.
Problem is, I remember none of it.
His name is Asher Carson.
Gorgeous.
Silent.
Dark.
Oh, and my future husband.
He has three rules for me:
I’ll bow.
I’ll break.
I’ll pay for what I’ve done.
Problem is, I don’t remember what I’ve done, but I have a clue.
There was a fire.
A dead girl.
And I was there.

I thread my fingers through her identical ones and smile.
It’s the first time I’ve let go of my shackles and every weight that used to hold me down.
My family.
She’s my family.
We’re the same.
Same strawberry blonde hair, although hers is shorter. Same skin that appears tanned but isn’t. Same huge blue eyes that mirror the deep ocean and the vast sky.
We might have lived apart, but we’re still the same.
We still look at each other like we’re mirrors, like we’re halves split into two different bodies.
From today onward, my life will be different. I’ve finally found this peace, and I’ll do whatever it takes to protect it.
We sit on an old bench in a cottage. It’s humid with the scent of pine and grass drifting through the half-broken window. The forest surrounding us feels like a protection against the outside world.
This is our haven.
Our sanctuary where no one can find us.
It brings back memories from the times when Reina and I used to hold each other and hide.
Back then, we made no sound. We barely breathed.
We have a lot of catching up to do. I can’t wait to hear all about how she’s been all these years.
A crunching sound of boots on the ground filters in from outside the cottage.
We jerk upright at the same time. Our hands become sweaty, and the peace from earlier evaporates into thin air.
“Are you expecting someone?” I sound as spooked as I feel.
She nibbles on her bottom lip, her body shaking. “You know, I told you…”
“What?”
“I run with a bad crowd, Rai.”
I grab her shoulders and bore my eyes into hers. It’s strange to stare at myself. “We’ll go to the authorities. No one will hurt you anymore, Reina. We’ll be
