Resumen del Editor

“I devoured this book in one day, and I guarantee you will too.”—Julie Clark, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Flight and The Lies I Tell

“An expertly woven story of love, revenge, and murder. In a world where so many books feel so similar—this was a refreshingly unique read and an addictive blend of love and mystery that I couldn’t put down. This is storytelling at its finest and I can’t recommend this book enough.”—AR Torre, New York Times bestselling author of Every Last Secret

Bestselling romance author Sarina Bowen’s debut thriller, about one woman’s search for the truth after receiving a text from her deceased ex.

She thought it was love. Then he vanished.

On an ordinary Monday morning, Ariel Cafferty's phone buzzes with a disturbing text message. Something’s happened. I need to see you. Meet me under the candelabra tree ASAP. The words would be jarring from anyone, but the sender is the only man she ever loved. And it's been several years since she learned he died.

Seeing Drew’s name pop up is heart-stopping. Ariel’s gut says it can’t be real. But she goes to the tree anyway. She has to.

Nobody shows. But the text upends everything she thought she knew about the day he left her. The more questions she asks, the more sinister the answers get. Only two things are clear: everything she was told five years ago is wrong, and someone is still lying to her.

The truth has to be out there somewhere. To safeguard herself—and her son—she’ll have to find it before it finds her. And with it, the answer to what became of Drew.

For fans of Laura Dave and Julie Clark, but with a heart-stopping romance that only Sarina Bowen can execute, The Five Year Lie is a spine-tingling thriller that will have you guessing until the very end.

Terrific story

This book was replay good. The characters were so believable and complex
I really enjoyed the book.

Fantastic Domestic Thriller!

Sarina Bowen has hit this one out of the park. Or should I say rink, I’ve been a fan for years and seeing her jump into the thriller genre was so exciting. This book had me in a chokehold from chapter 2. I loved the intro. Pulling you in from that foreshadowing. While I didn’t love Ariel, I think that’s why she was written that way. She was the perfect imperfect character. Single young mom, terrible at a job she hated still pinining for a man. I did like the secondary characters like Larry. I enjoyed the “chime” doorbell theme and it really makes me rethink my own camera on my apartment door. Give this one a try. It’s a good one.

Must Read

This was an exceptional book!
I loved all of the layers the story and characters had.
The book felt fresh. Nothing like anything I have listed to before, which is saying something. Many books seem to be very predictable and just a different version of another book, but not this one!

A different kind of good…

I only started this book because I listen to most anything Jason Clarke narrates. So glad I did. It was such a great story! It kept me engaged from the beginning.

Loved it!

Good but not great

It was a bit hard for me to get in to. took a few chapters and then I did like it, but could put it down whenever. I find that a really great book is hard to put down and this one wasn't that way. Worth a credit however.

Excellent

Interesting story line

The plot line was enjoyable and I liked the characters. Kept me interested throughout the story.
