<p>Dr. Bethany McNeal is living her dream as a pediatric resident in one of the most sought-after medical centers in Seattle. Beautiful and intelligent, she’s missing only one thing—love, which she put on hold to focus on her career after ending a tumultuous relationship. Everything changes when she meets Dr. Brent Anderson, a charming and handsome fellow resident. Despite her reservations, Bethany falls for Brent—hard. When she learns Brent is married several months into their relationship, she immediately breaks it off. After graduating residency and going their separate ways, Bethany tries to move on with another man—real estate broker and personal trainer Charles Blakely. But just when things get serious with Charles, she realizes she’s still in love with Brent, and she finds herself caught between the two men, facing a series of difficult decisions and harrowing events that will change her life forever. Will she be able to recover from the vital temptations that turned her perfect life upside down?</p>

Story Behind The Book

Growing up in the 20th Century, we all talked about changing the world. Now the world is changed, and we find we got lost along the way. When did that happen? Was it while we were smoking with the boys upstairs? Maybe our lovers told us life stories that turned out not to be true. Or maybe the technology changes so quickly we never really catch up. Can reality actually be reduced to tweets? Different characters with different voices drive the story cycle in Believable Lies. Life is funny sometimes, isn't it? And then, when we look in the mirror, are we still laughing?

You’ll laugh so hard you won’t realize you’re crying. No one should be this good, or this funny, the first time out. Neil’s genius is his ability to uncover the sadness that underlies the comic and the grandeur just below the surface.&quot; <br />--<a title="John Dufresne" href="http://www.johndufresne.com/">John Dufresne</a>, author of Requiem,MASS. <br /></p>
