When Ella Davidson's world is turned upside down, and she is forced to transition from her picture-perfect all-American life to two years of mandatory military service abroad, the last thing on her mind is finding love. Then she meets the officer in charge of her unit, Liam Levine. Mysterious, confident on the verge of cocky, and unbearably gorgeous, Liam is everything Ella never knew she needed. And the spark between them? Magnetic. Undeniable. Dangerous. But as she and Liam navigate their secret love affair, Ella finds out that Liam is hiding a secret of his own--one that could ruin them both. Building to an unforgettably emotional climax, Where Love Lies delves into the longings and lies of falling in love, the slippery slope of controlling relationships, and the strength it takes to find your own voice, reminding us of how hard it is to let go when everything in you wants to keep holding on.
