Livie has always been the stable one of the two Cleary sisters, handling her parents' tragic death and Kacey's self-destructive phase with strength and maturity. But underneath that exterior is a little girl hanging onto the last words her father ever spoke to her. “Make me proud,” he had said. She promised she would...and she’s done her best over the past seven years with every choice, with every word, with every action.Livie walks into Princeton with a solid plan, and she’s dead set on delivering on it: Rock her classes, set herself up for medical school, and meet a good, respectable guy that she’s going to someday marry. What isn’t part of her plan are Jell-O shots, a lovable, party animal roommate she can’t say ‘no’ to, and Ashton, the gorgeous captain of the men’s rowing team. Definitely him. He’s an arrogant ass who makes Livie’s usually non-existent temper flare and everything she doesn’t want in a guy. Worse, he’s best friends and roommates with Connor, who happens to fits Livie’s criteria perfectly. So why does she keep thinking about Ashton?
As Livie finds herself facing mediocre grades, career aspirations she no longer thinks she can handle, and feelings for Ashton that she shouldn’t have, she’s forced to let go of her last promise to her father and, with it, the only identity that she knows.
When I got the chance to read this book I was excited then I got nervous. I LOVED the first book in this series, Ten Tiny Breaths. That book was a five star, must read for me. Would this one be just as good, or were my hopes too high? Thankfully K.A. Tucker did not disappoint! I freaking loved One Tiny Lie! The characters were so well written, I felt as if I knew them. I was feeling every emotion they were.
Ashton is the quintessential player. Tattooed, captain of the rowing team, cocky, and a womanizer. Not that the women are complaining! But, is there more to him than meets the eye, or is he just a jock?
Livie is the younger sister that has always kept it together. A straight A student, never getting into trouble, always caring for others with little thought about what she wanted. She had a hard childhood. After losing her parents and almost her sister in a horrific car crash, Livie had to become an adult at the young age of 11. She has always had her life planned out. She will attend Princeton and become a doctor. Is this what she really wants, or is she hell bent on living the life her parents wanted for her?
I received this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion.
Born in small-town Ontario, Kathleen published her first book at the age of six with the help of her elementary school librarian and a box of crayons. She is a voracious reader and the farthest thing
