Both
on the verge of fame. A ballerina who lies. A baseball player who
believes her. Well, the truth changes everything.
Tally
Landon is just trying to survive the death of her twin sister,
graduate from high school, and escape her tragic story by pursuing
her ballet career in New York. She doesn’t count on Lincoln
Presley, Stanford’s baseball wonder, to affect her at all. Adding
him to a long list of one-night stands is the plan. Lying to him
about her age and name is her standard method of operandi. She
doesn’t count on being found out, on seeing him again, or falling
in love.Lincoln Presley’s life is all mapped out for him. There is only baseball. With Major League Baseball circling their favorite prospect with a lucrative offer, he cannot afford to mess up. And, he doesn’t; until he meets up with the girl he saved in that burning wreckage on the 101 on Valentine’s Day months before. By the time he learns her real name and of all the lies she’s told, he’s in far too deep to ever really let her go.
Fate has a different set of plans, but when fame and lies tear them apart, one truth remains.
This
fictional book can be read as a stand alone novel yet it is in a
series of three so far. This book is the first in the series and
Katherine Owen is the author.
Owen
writes with a sweet, hell fire, tailspinning, fresh aura and keeps
her readers definitely wanting more of the main characters! This is
definitely a book for the emotional reader like myself. You will feel
drug out and turned upside down and that is putting it easy on ya!
Nonetheless Owen does the job and gets you ready for the next book in
the series.
I
rate this book with 4 stars and encourage those that love a knock
down drag out difference in reading to try this one out! But be
warned emotions will be racked! But hey that is what makes the book!
*I was given the bookThis Much Is True in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are mine and written without compensation.

About Owen's fiction...This is NOT the light trope stuff. She travels a unique, writerly path and enjoys writing dark and angsty (a "non-word" she is fond of) emotional love stories. She often warns readers to be prepared with: time, tissues, wine, Advil or your drug of choice. And, as her most favored character, Lincoln Presley, would say, "do what you must, Princess."

This was an awesome book, would love to have a signed version!
