A ballerina who lies and a baseball player who believes her. This much is true.
Tally Landon just wants to escape her tragic story, if only for just one night. She doesn't count on meeting Stanford's baseball wonder, Lincoln Presley. But now, she just plans to add him to her long list of one-night stands. That's the plan. Lying to the guy about virtually everything is her sure way of coping. She doesn't count on being found out, ever seeing him again, or falling in love. Ballet is her life. She plans on keeping it that way. But can she?

Lincoln Presley's life is all mapped out. There is only baseball. With the major leagues circling their favorite prospect with a lucrative offer, he cannot afford to mess up. And, he doesn't; until he meets up with the girl he saved on Valentine's Day, months before. By the time he learns her real name and all the lies she's told, he's in far too deep to ever really let her go. Even so, this girl could single-handedly tank his baseball career before it even gets started...

But it's true, right?
What they say?

That love conquers all.
Or does love destroy absolutely everything in its wake?

Author's Note: A coming-of-age story? Could be. A powerful love story? Most definitely. An unforgettable read? Most likely. Intended for mature audiences, ages 17+? Absolutely. This bestselling, new adult contemporary romance novel will take you on an emotional roller coaster ride and is the first book (which should really be two books) in the Truth in Lies series, but it can be read as a standalone.
