About this ebook
When a journalist acquires the power to hear lies, the real test isn't exposing the truth, but living with it in the next striking novel from Harper Ross, author of The Unwritten Rules of Magic.
Rowan Winslow built her career exposing liars, no matter the consequences. That conviction cost her a job at a prestigious Boston paper, as well as her reputation. At 28, she's back in her hometown of Pinebridge, Vermont, navigating the wreckage of her relationship with her sister and trying not to suffocate in a town where everyone knows her past. Then a birthday wish during a meteor shower grants her what seems like the perfect gift: the power to hear when people lie.
At first, it’s intoxicating. Seductive, even, as she uses her ability to uncover secrets for stories that could relaunch her career. But the deeper she leans into her power, the more her choices begin to strain the fragile relationships she has been trying to rebuild.
When a shocking family secret comes to light, Rowan's world grinds to a halt, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about the people she loves and the truths she has built her life around. The truth has always been Rowan's creed, but now it's demanding a sacrifice she's not sure she can make. Because not all truths set you free. Some leave you trapped in an impossible choice.

About the author
HARPER ROSS has enjoyed a lifelong love affair with the dramatic story worlds in books and movies. After leaving her legal practice to raise her kids, she discovered her own creative side and began writing novels that explore friendship, family, and forgiveness. Because she also appreciates the magic in everyday life—from the spark of attraction to those serendipitous moments we all experience—you’ll find a dash of that in her work too. When she’s not at the keyboard, she’s likely to be singing badly in her car, dancing in her kitchen, or walking her adorable dog, Mo. She’s also a lucky wife and mother to a very patient and supportive family.
