Description

Alone in an empty house, Lucy tries to imagine the lives of her two young children. The day they left, she didn't know she would never see them again. But now she knows, and you can hardly glimpse the sexy, edgy woman she used to be. Back then she was a magnet for men like Matt, who loved her beyond reason, and Griffin, who wouldn't let go but always left her wanting more. Now the lies they told and the choices they made have come to haunt the lives of all three of them. With shattering turns, "Lies you wanted to hear" explores the way good people talk themselves into doing seemingly unthinkable things. What happens when believeing our own lies spirals into disaster?
