When Margaux DeLaurentis leaves Miami for a new career in Chicago, she thinks she's closing the door on heartbreak. But the Windy City has other plans. Between a demanding new job, a luxurious condo she's learning to call home, and the unexpected presence of her old flame's best friend, Joe Morello, her fresh start quickly becomes more complicated than she imagined.
Joe is charming, protective, and dangerously hard to resist. His flirtations blur the line between friendship and something far more intense-and soon their chemistry ignites into passion Margaux can't deny. But just as she begins to fall for the man who's always been in the background, her past comes crashing back when Mike, the ex who broke her heart, reappears with unfinished business.
Caught between the pull of old wounds and the promise of new love, Margaux must navigate loyalty, desire, and betrayal in Chicago's charged atmosphere. Will she embrace the unexpected romance waiting for her, or let the ghosts of her past steal her chance at happiness?
A seductive, emotional, and fast-paced romance, Love, Lies, and the L-train is perfect for readers who love steamy chemistry, complicated love triangles, and the thrill of starting over.
