Between Lines and Lies

by Madelyn Goyet

Camden O’Hara wasn’t expecting to find a friend in the grocery store randomly one day. He was used to being recognized and being wanted for his status. But when he met Beth, and she didn’t even know who he was, he felt intrigued. That is, until she said they had to keep their friendship a secret—that she couldn’t be seen with him. Problem is, Cam’s best friend starts dating Beth’s boss, and secrets have their way of revealing themselves. Now they had to pretend to date to protect Beth and get the secrets to back off.

Beth Stevens refuses to be the center of attention and goes out of her way to stay hidden. When Beth’s boss/best friend starts dating the hockey captain, it brings a lot of unwanted attention to her. Luckily, the hockey captain's best friend, Cam, had already known Beth for a year. When danger arises, they devise a plan to protect everything. But when lies are told, lines get blurred. Is this real? Or is it all for show?

Love has a way of sneaking up on the least expecting.

About the author

Madelyn Goyet writes contemporary romance novels filled with heart, emotion, and the kind of love stories readers can get lost in.

Her love of reading grew over the years until one day, on a whim, she decided to start writing a story of her own. That story eventually became Between Whistles and Whisks.

For Madelyn, reading and writing have always been a way to step outside the real world for a little while and disappear into somewhere new. She hopes her books can offer readers that same sense of escape, comfort, and connection.

She is incredibly grateful for the support of her friends, family, and coworkers, who have encouraged her throughout this journey, and she is excited to share her stories with others.
