Love, Lies & Lessons Learned oleh Michelle Oeltjen

Michelle thought she had it all when she moved to the big city of Phoenix, Arizona: a new car, a hot boyfriend and a new job that would send her jet-setting around the world. But she soon realizes that not all in life is as it appears to be. Her job is nowhere near as glamorous as she expected, her boss hates her and her boyfriend dumps her shortly after the holidays. So when her co-worker, Nick, takes a personal interest in Michelle, she welcomes the attention and soon finds herself in an entangled, fiery affair. Only Nick is harboring secrets so deep that when Michelle begins to uncover them, she isn’t sure how to tell the difference between fact or fiction anymore. Michelle’s life spins out of control as she struggles with her job, rocky friendships and dealing with Nick’s constant web of lies. On her twenty-eighth birthday, her world completely falls apart when she finally witnesses the ugly truth about Nick and becomes a victim of an attack so violent it nearly costs Michelle her life. Michelle now has to learn how to heal from the physical and emotional pain that encompasses her daily life, pain inflicted by a man she once thought she knew and loved. Through it all, Michelle learns valuable lessons on how to survive some of the darkest of days she has ever experienced. And while she might not ever discover the secret of life, she does discover someone’s purpose in this crazy, chaotic world: hers.
