Review

I really wanted to love From Lies to Promises and based on its description I was really intrigued. It started out good but for some reason I never really connected with the story or the characters. I felt like it had great potential but was missing something. The heroine Kat has had a traumatic childhood and has some pretty big trust issues. Exactly what happened to her stays a mystery throughout most of the book and I feel like maybe if I knew more about her through flashbacks or something I would have been rooting for her a bit more. Ryder is a good Hero, falling fast for Kat he is super sweet and helps her overcome some of her issues. However there was one thing that he did that really pissed me off and I wouldn’t be as forgiving as Kat was! There were some other aspects to the story that could have used further exploration but just seem to fall by the wayside. At around 150 pages this was a pretty short read and I think some more detail would have really made a big difference.
