Her whole life is a lie… Nineteen-year-old Veronica Day learned to lie before she learned to talk. The only person she can be real with is her grifter mother, so when Tori disappears, Veronica isn't just afraid of losing her only parent. She’s afraid of losing herself. He’s a professional lie detector… A wealthy senator holds the key to Tori’s disappearance. It’s easy for Veronica to lie her way into a job on his staff. It’s not so easy to work with his nephew, Jared, who does cutting-edge research in deceit detection. As Jared begins to see through her lies, Veronica struggles to adapt. For the first time, she wants to let someone in. Only, she’s not sure how. She has spent so much time pretending to be other people, she doesn’t know who she is underneath the layers of disguises. But this lie is so big, neither of them see it coming. Veronica isn’t the only one with secrets. Jared joined his uncle’s staff for a reason, and when Veronica discovers the secret he has been working so hard to uncover, she has to make a choice. Hide behind the safety of another convenient lie? Or trust that Jared will love the person she really is when all is revealed. Like all books in the BURIED SECRETS series, TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.

A Scandalous Wife

By: Ava Stone

A Regency Historical Novel - Book One of the Scandalous Series As the head of his family, Robert Beckford, the Earl of Masten, was accustomed to dealing with various problems his siblings had caused of one sort or another. However he wasn't prepared when his cad of brother ruined and then abandoned a young lady. To right the wrong, Robert married the girl himself; but his chivalry only went so far. He didn't want a wife, and most certainly not a scandalous one. So after repeating his vows, he sent her packing, off to a secluded estate and expected her to stay put. After years of mistreatment at the hands of her family, Lydia was prepared to be an accommodating wife; but her rigid and unforgiving husband asked too much of her. After languishing for years in her opulent prison, Lydia leaves her country estate for the glamour and excitement of London-and unfortunately her husband's path.

The Curse of the Mogul

What's Wrong with the World's Leading Media Companies

By: Jonathan A. Knee,Bruce C. Greenwald,Ava Seave

If Rupert Murdoch and Sumner Redstone are so smart, why are their stocks long-term losers? We live in the age of big Media, with the celebrity moguls telling us that "content is king." But for all the excitement, glamour, drama, and publicity they produce, why can't these moguls and their companies manage to deliver better returns than you'd get from closing your eyes and throwing a dart? The Curse of the Mogul lays bare the inexcusable financial performance beneath big Media's false veneer of power. By rigorously examining individual media businesses, the authors reveal the difference between judging a company by how many times its CEO is seen in SunValley and by whether it generates consistently superior profits. The book is packed with enough sharp-edged data to bring the most high-flying, hot-air filled mogul balloon crashing down to earth.

A Scandalous Charade

By: Ava Stone

A Regency Historical Novel - Book Two of the Scandalous Series... Handsome ladies' man Lucas Beckford has agreed to help his friend, an impoverished baron, win the affections of an icy heiress. It should be a simple task, especially for a seducer of his reputation. However when Luke catches sight of the enchanting lady, he is captivated with her pretty brown eyes, quick wit, and sharp tongue; and his desire to see his friend marry the girl quickly evaporates. Now he just has to find a way to convince the penniless lord to turn his attentions elsewhere-leaving the Ice Princess to him. Lady Juliet St. Claire has always believed that her fortune would protect her from ever having to relinquish her freedom in marriage. Though fortune hunters endlessly hound her, Juliet's outwardly cold demeanor keeps most of them at bay, licking their wounds or patching up their pride. However when Luke charms his way into her life, he easily melts more than just her heart. Unfortunately, the rogue is of the love 'em and leave 'em variety, and leaves Juliet's tender heart in pieces. But when her fortune lands her in danger from an unscrupulous foe, Luke returns to her side, offering his help and protection. Now Juliet has to decide if her heart is strong enough to trust the rogue a second time. Plus! Bonus Novella - A Scandalous Secret Chester Peyton, the Marquess of Astwick, has never forgotten his first love. Nor has he ever gotten over her. But now thirteen years later, time has come for him to finally settle down and do his duty as far as both his title and his dragon of a mother are concerned. Everything would be so much easier if Chet's heart didn't still belong to the enchanting Scot he gave it to once upon a time. After following her late-husband's regiment from one end of the continent to the other, Lady Hannah Campbell returns to London a very different woman than the naive lass she once was. With her two sons in tow, she now has to navigate the waters of the ton, which seem more foreign than the lands she has traversed the last dozen years. And all the while, she has to keep hidden the scandalous secret that made her flee England so very ago.
