Pretty Lies (Vol. 1 Pretty Lies)

First volume of the Pretty Lies series, by the author of the Bad Boys trilogy. Innocent, pure, and sweet, Sloane has always been overprotected by her family, but she swore to herself that when she turned 21, everything would be different. And when the clock strikes midnight, Sloane is ready to break out of her shell and break some rules. Young Hemi has many talents, but maintaining control, unfortunately, is not one of them. Accustomed to doing what he always wanted, he never had to worry much about the consequences of his actions. Until a tragedy changed his life forever. Now he has only one mission, and nothing can sway him from his goal... Until he meets Sloane. But nothing Sloane and Hemi have experienced so far has been able to prepare them for what's to come. When these two troubled souls meet, the connection is instant, and they have no choice but to plunge into a world of madness, passion, and debauchery. However, they both have something to hide, and they soon discover that temptation lies in the small details. And it's in the small details that the most beautiful lies are found.
