PRAISE FOR LOVE LOST ADVENTURE: THE LIEFIVE 5-star reviews from Readers' Favorite1. “The Lie by Roseann Gargiulo is a story of many plots all gradually threading together. This is an awesome story told by a master storyteller. It’s a mixture of romance history murder mystery and adventure with a good dash of humor thrown in for good measure.” — Anne-Marie Reynolds2. “Gargiulo's characters are richly developed and their deep connections evoke a range of emotions taking readers from laughter to tears at the turn of a page.” — K.C. Finn3. It's all fun and games until somebody ends up in an incinerator! When I first picked up The Lie by Roseann Gargiulo I admit I thought it would be a pretty standard young adult love story. The formula model is usually some combination of girl chasing boy girl meeting new boy girl has a choice to make. Gargiulo threw a spanner into that theory crafting the ancient Blood & Bones Society and while far less important putting characters in shady places like at The Fat Black Pussycat which is brilliant enough to be a band name. — Jamie Michele4. The alternating perspectives from several characters provided transitions that built suspense. The sudden twists in the plot made it unpredictable and I was on edge as I read each page. — Stephanie Chapman5. People will do crazy things for love and there is no better example of this than Love Lost Adventure: The Lie by Roseann Gargiulo. The characters were all quirky and unique and added something to the plot. This is a wonderfully written book and I enjoyed every bit of it. Anyone who loves a romance that isn’t just a romance would appreciate this work. — Miche Arendse
