Once Upon A Lie by Max Monroe is now live!
An undercover cop. A mobster’s daughter. The best love stories start with a lie in this funny, emotional, suspenseful rom-com by New York Times bestselling author Max Monroe.
Valentina Cordone doesn’t need a prince—she’s got a thriving bagel-and-book shop in Nashville, game nights with her quirky crew, and a perfectly good life. But when her attractive new neighbor shows up with effortless charm and an award-winning smile, she starts to reconsider.
Detective Shane Maddox went undercover to surveil a mob boss’s daughter. What he didn’t expect? That she’d be a lovable ray of sunshine, nothing like the crime princess he imagined. He planned to get close but walk away untouched. Instead, he’s falling hard…and realizing she’s in more danger than she knows.
Torn between duty and desire, Shane keeps his identity secret while protecting Valentina from her family’s criminal empire. As the truth explodes, he must prove his love is real while keeping her alive—no small feat when she won’t take his calls.
Even though the prince is a liar, he can’t risk losing his princess.
Sometimes fairy tales don’t start with once upon a time. They start with once upon a lie.

MY REVIEW
Valentina thought when her father moved their family it meant he had gone legit. She's been living her life since in a successful fashion, opened up a bagel/bookstore in Nashville, and has now met a sweet, gorgeous guy who happens to be her new neighbor. Life is looking up and she's thinking Shane may be the one. Until it all comes to a halt and she's ghosted out of the blue. Now she realizes he's been lying to her this whole time, what other lies will she find out? About her family? About Shane?
Shane and Valentina "Teeny" are a cute couple. Theirs is a slow burn connection, and at times, I wanted it to speed up, heat up, a little quicker. Still, I liked their banter, and it was obvious that though their relationship started with and continued with, a lie, their feelings were very real. Though not my favorite by MM, it's still a fun story with an adorable couple and some great side characters.
