This time she has switched gears from the absolutely, pee my pants, funny to the serious, conspiracy love story.

Por lo que resulta una sorpresa cuando Milo muere, y Annabelle y Garrett comienzan a descubrir que Milo no era quienes ellos creían. Esta historia está mal en demasiados niveles. *Los POV alternándose cada dos líneas, contándonos la misma escena, repetidamente, según cada uno de los personajes. Y peor aún, sin ofrecer nada nuevo. Lo mejor hubiese sido limitarse a un POV por capitulo, o al menos por secciones en el mismo capitulo. No lanzar un montón de ángulos de la misma escena en el mismo párrafo. Totalmente innecesario, confuso y aburrido. *Los flashbacks. Los flashbacks son terribles, en vez de permitirnos profundizar más en la historia, desorientan. Esto ocurre porque están colocados totalmente al azar, rompiendo la continuidad de las escenas. *Las frases en español. Los personajes viajan a ¿Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, República Dominicana? Todo fue tan malo que ni siquiera recuerdo los detalles. El punto es que por momentos dicen frases en “español“. El problema con estas frases es que resulta obvio que la autora no se tomo ni el tiempo ni la molestia de revisar realmente como se escribían. Un pequeño ejemplo de ello es: “Espero que usted quema en el infierno para darle la espalda a su hija.” ¿Acaso nadie editó este libro? *TODO lo relacionado con la misión. Hay una misión militar relacionada con la trama y la única forma de describirla es como una burla. -Van de encubierto, usan nombres falsos y aún así ¿llevan sus identificaciones reales en el bolsillo? ¿Really? No lo creo. -Además, todo eso de “sino tienen relaciones no les doy la entrevista”, de parte del presidente. Completamente inverosímil. *La historia de amor. Sinceramente, toda la trama fue TAN aburrida que ni siquiera la historia de amor logró interesarme ni un poquito Oh my… oh my….. Where to start. Tara Sivec has wooed me again!

A Beautiful Lie is an interesting romantic suspense with lots of twists and turns woven into the story. Unfortunately, there are also many problematic elements throughout the novel. Much of the narrative is told through 3rd person internal monologues that frequently jump perspectives without warning. The plot itself is completely unrealistic and unbelievable. As college friends, the characters make sense, but once they enter the realm of the spy world, things become less plausible. While the ending of the story holds some memorable moments, overall A Beautiful Lie is a promising romantic suspense novel that needed a lot more editing. ( )
