A lie. Presenting a false impression. To be deceptive.

That's what I am. A lie.

My family sees one version of me. The world sees another.

Neither is real.

I like it that way. Prefer it even.

And then there's her.

She sees right through the lie. Through me.

And no matter how much I try, there doesn't seem to be a damn thing I can do to hide from her.

A liar recognises another liar.

I was labelled rebellious. The girl with behavioural issues.

Because no one bothered to dig deep enough to find the truth.

I was running. Chasing an escape that didn't come until I left school.

I have it under control now. Or at least I thought I did.

Until I meet Gabriel De Bellis. And everything I thought I buried rises to the surface.

Can two people stuck in a web of their own lies find a common truth?
