Review: Accidental Lies

Accidental Lies Accidental Lies by Dana Mason
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

DNF at 32%.

Emily's husband drowned four years ago and her brother has forced her to go on a week's holiday to Maui to rest and relax.

Drew is a widower with two small children, every summer he spends a few weeks on holiday in Maui while his in-laws have the children for the summer.

Drew and Emily agree to have a summer fling, the one condition that they don't share anything about their real lives: no jobs; no city of origin; no family; no pets, just fun and good times.

I was going along with this until Emily overhears Drew answer the phone to his daughter and when she asks who Hannah is, Drew outright lies and says that she is his roommate, he then compounds it by adding that he has two roommates. Emily then ups the ante by saying her last relationship ended badly - he freaking died!

I don't mind not telling each other things but outright lying? Unnecessary and just gave me the reason to ditch the book which wasn't engaging my attention anyway.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
