Once Upon a Lie
Description
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.
