TITLE: Buried Lies
AUTHOR: T.L. Smith
GENRE: Suspense | Romance
PUBLICATION: January 23rd, 2018
A suspenseful, dark, raw, gritty read which had me devouring the pages like a blood thirsty vampire seeking blood.
BURIED IN LIES: Is a full length standalone dark novel by T.L. Smith. In two parts, flits from past to present effortlessly.
This isn’t a fairy tale with fluffy cats and farting unicorns sprinkling glitter onto the pages, because nothing and I mean nothing can really prepare you for this book, yes it’s dark, it’s gritty and pretty much as fucked up as one can get, it’s gory and many times I’d be sitting there wondering what the hell I was reading but by that stage the author had gotten her claws into me and I was hooked.
So onto the story we go though I’m not going to write this review up how I would normally because you NEED to go into this book BLIND.
This surrounds three characters: Jaya (Mouse), Syler Hunter (Wolf) and his sister Toska.
Run little Mouse
All three broken beyond repair, dark black souls that call to each other in their own way. One more broken than the other.
Syler has many layers, a brilliant computer hacker a man who welds a machete who doesn’t like to be touched. He will do anything for his sister, he’ll not only protect her but maybe just maybe he might even kill for her.
She’s a bad apple, and he’s a puppet that she controls
Toska likes to play and by playing that involves blood, lots and lots of blood.
Jaya the daughter of a CSI agent, she’s just as broken as the two siblings, losing a mother to a tragic event left her just as damaged as them.
This book was cray cray CRAZY I feel like I've had a trip on a looney train do not pass go straight to the looney bin for you, this book drained the crap out of me, if there is a way to get whiplash sitting on a couch reading a book then I have that symptom. I should've known what this author was capable of before I went in but nothing could prepare me for what I encountered within the pages. Such a cuckoo unique un-put-downable read!!

His lips told me he knew me.
His hands touched like we were old lovers.
His eyes held secrets of a past I’d never known.
I was lost, you see.
Lost as the flowers that grew in the meadow.
The devil told me he knew me.
But lies had a way of unraveling, even if we didn’t want them to.
The devil had a trick, for his love was full of acid. Acid that burned at every touch, every linger, and I let it scorch me to my core.
A devil made you sin. And my devil was the worst.
But now that devil wanted my last kiss, and it wasn't one I was willing to give.
He could take the acid and leave the burn behind.
I was keeping my heart even if I died trying.
