What Lies We Whisper: Some Lies Protect. Others Destroy. Will Their Love Survive?

By Vergil McKenzie

Some lies are meant to protect. Others are meant to destroy. But what happens when love is built on both?

Dr. Darian Whitmore doesn't believe in love-not the kind that stays. As a dedicated doctor, he thrives on control, keeping his emotions locked away where they can't hurt him. Love is temporary. Trust is dangerous. And people always leave.

Then he meets Mico.

With his carefree charm, restless energy, and an easy smile that hides deeper wounds, Mico isn't the kind of person Darian planned to let in. But against all odds, Mico makes him feel something real-something that shakes the foundation of the world he's built.

But Mico has secrets.

The past he's running from was never meant to catch up to him. But when a mysterious message threatens to expose everything he's kept buried, the fragile trust between them begins to crack. Suddenly, Darian isn't just fighting his own demons-he's fighting to hold on to a love that might have been a lie from the start.

Now, with the truth unraveling around them, Darian and Mico must face the ultimate question:

Is love enough when trust has been broken? Or will the lies they whisper be the very thing that tears them apart?

A gripping, emotional contemporary romance, The Lies We Whisper is a story of passion, betrayal, and second chances-where love is tested, secrets unravel, and the past refuses to stay buried.
