We don't just fall in love.
We tell stories about it.
Stories about who the other person is. About who we are with them. About what is true - and what is easier to believe.
In The Lies We Tell About Love, a single relationship unfolds through memory, perception, and quiet contradiction. What once felt certain begins to shift as small inconsistencies, half-truths, and unspoken doubts slowly surface. The protagonist moves through moments of intimacy, distance, and reflection, forced to confront not just what was said - but what was avoided, reshaped, or silently rewritten over time.
Told in close, observant prose with a focus on emotional detail, the novel explores how people construct meaning inside relationships, and how those constructions can both protect and deceive.
Because sometimes the most dangerous lies are not the ones we tell each other -
but the ones we tell ourselves.
If you've ever questioned what was real in a relationship, or how memory and emotion can blur the truth, this story offers a deeply human and unsettling reflection on love, identity, and self-deception.
