This is a twisted con-woman thriller about two women out for revenge. Meg, Maggie, Melody, whatever her name is, she is a con-artist. Kat had been waiting for this woman to come back into her life so that she can get revenge for having her life turned upside down, but as she gets closer to Meg, her assumptions begin to waver... I really enjoyed this!

I absolutely loved this book and can't wait to read other books by this author! I have a feeling this one is going to be an auto buy author for me.

I was hooked from the beginning. I loved getting the different perspectives from Meg and Kat. The suspense built throughout the story and the twists had my mouth hanging open. What a wild ride.

This was SO GOOD. Full of surprises with two very intriguing narrators. Super fast and thrilling read. Definitely looking forward to reading more from Julie Clark.

Con artist, and someone who wants to expose her?! The drama!!
But of course, not all is as it seems.

Two women, their intentions clearly stated, will decide it's in their best interests to join together to defeat the target of both of their worst nightmares.

I'm not much of a thriller girlie anymore due to life changes, but man was this one good! It took me awhile to read simply because of my own personal issues, but once I did I couldn't put it down! Yall this book is nail biting, edge of your seat, stay up way past your bedtime awesomeness! Great for thriller fans and not so thriller fans alike!

I received an advanced copy for free and am leaving this review voluntarily. Thank you to NetGalley, Sourcebooks Landmark, and Julie Clark. ❤️

Julie girl, you wild.

I don’t know who hurt past you, but is it wrong to thank them? Thanks for the fuel to make these revenge plots so juicy and edge of your seat!

I picked it up and never stopped. It’s just pedal to the floor con y con two baddies seeking the revenge of a lifetime.

This is the type of book that needs to be made into a movie, ya feel?

Twisted con-woman triller about two women our for revenge-or justice. This book had me on the edge of my seat. I did not see the twist coming. It was fast paced and I did not want to put the book down. For fans of Taylor Swift's reputation era you will enjoy this book.

Excellent read! Julie Clark is a new author to me, and I'm already impressed! She delivers the perfect amount of suspense and psychological thrills all in one book. It's a great cat and mouse game, and it highlights what happens when we get obsessed, and can't let go of the past. Two women from two different paths cross each other, one wants revenge, the other wants a better life. Both women will have you rooting for them to the end!

Another dual-character point of view thriller from Julie Clark! I loved this one just as much as I loved Last Flight. Julie knows how to write a thriller!

I really enjoyed this book so much that I read it in one sitting. I will definitely recommend this book to all my family and friends. This was the first book I have read by this author and will not be my last.

I loved the Last Flight and was very happy that The Lies I Tell was just as good! I will read anything that Julie Clark writes. She has a unique writing style that works for me. The story focuses on two flawed female characters that have a connection and they meet again later in life. There is revenge and justice from different angles that makes this book hard to put down. A fantastic read!

Kat hopes to solidify her journalistic career with Meg’s story, so she does what any reasonable person would do: cozies up to the subject of her expose to gather more information. Meanwhile, Meg has returned to California to seek revenge against someone from her past who ruined her life. She’s perfected her skills over the past decade and she is going to absolutely destroy her target.

I don’t read a lot of thrillers or suspense novels, but the premise of this book intrigued me: the con artist and the woman determined to finally catch the con artist after years of waiting. The dual points of view shifted fairly often, keeping me on my metaphorical toes as I wondered who knew what and when.

There were several plot twists that I didn’t see coming, which is something I always appreciate because I’m usually pretty good at guessing what’s going to happen next. The “cat and mouse” game kept me intrigued throughout the narrative as I went back and forth between wanting Kat to get her big story and Meg to succeed in her quest for revenge.

I would absolutely recommend The Lies I Tell. I’m going to keep an eye out for more books by Clark in the future.
