Shh Mom's ReadingOne Tiny Lie is Livie's Cleary's story.  To the outside world, Livie is the sister who pushed through; the one who took her parents death in stride, the one who managed to keep her life on track to make them proud.But what happens when what you think is your path turns out to be the dream of childhood and not the reality you can embrace as you become an adult?Live's introduction to Ashton Henley is a smile on your face kind of first encounter.Ash is everything Livie is not, and everything she thinks does not work for her.Livie's thinks she has her future planned and when she meets Connor, Ash's friend, he fits her life's plan to a T, he is even from Ireland just like her dad.As Livie struggles with the chemistry she and Ash share and the reality of life at Princeton; including her first non A grade, she is faced with the question of who she really is.I have to say Ashton's "gesture" to Livie spoke volumes to me.  It was such a kind and compassionate act.  Ms. Tucker really showed the reader there was something else underneath his stoic exterior.When Ash's backstory unfolds, I guarantee you will be gripping your kindle, your heart will break and his actions will make so much sense.  Outstanding!!!Despite the fact that I typically read hotter books, that I don't always adore love triangles and that I usually hate cheaters; I loved this book.So I think that speak volumes to the masterful writing and amazing story line!One Tiny Lie was a captivating read, one that will stick with me and that I highly recommend.I am very much looking forward to book 3 in this series.
