"She'd lied to me over and over. Me, who prided myself on the art of a lie."

Oh my goodness. #theartofalie is one of THE best books I've read this year, and I've read some good ones! Seriously, Ms. Shepherd-Robinson does a fabulous job with these characters, immersing the reader in 18th century England, too. A time when a woman was almost completely dependent upon her husband - his successes, his whims, his lies. I enjoyed reading about confectionary - what a neat occupation for Hannah Cole. And the interplay between Hannah and William/Billy?? Whiplash - inducing. Terrific read, highly recommend. Now, where is my copy of The Square of Sevens??

P.S. Thanks to #netgalley for the ARC.

Very captivating! Thank you for this ARC! I was able to fly through this book in one sitting, this book is so engaging and this book has everything you want, betrayal, humor, love! It was a perfect book for my flight :) 4.5 stars!
