THEIR ARRANGEMENT IS PERFECT UNTIL IT ISN'T.

Since the devastation of her ex-fiancé's affair, Lexi hasn't felt a deep attraction to anyone, until she meets Jax. What begins with flirtatious texts, turns into much more.

But there's one catch: he only wants to be friends...with benefits.

He's gorgeous, funny, and well--she hasn't had any action in a year, so she agrees. Though Lexi knows they're temporary, her feelings for him aren't.

Jax is used to hookups, but with Lexi, one night just isn't enough. She's beautiful, sassy, and everything he wants in a woman. With time, his need for her turns into something he never bargained for, but he knows he can't have her.

His dark nightmares enslave him.
His secrets keep his heart locked away.
So he lets her go, knowing if he doesn't, his demons would destroy her light.

Could he shatter all that keeps him prisoner or would their hearts be the only things left shattered?

Author Note: Fragile Lies is a steamy contemporary romance and isn't suitable for those under 18. It contains strong language, sexual situations and references. It is the 2nd book in the Fragile Hearts series and part I of Jax and Lexi's story. It contains a cliffhanger and must be read with Fragile Truths. Both books can be read as a stand-alone romance, but you first meet the couple in Fragile Scars.

ALL MY REVIEWS CAN BE FOUND ON MY BLOG: ABSTRACT BOOKS

Fragile Lies is the second book of the Fragile hearts Standalone series. Even though this book features different characters than the first book of the series , this book is the first part of the duet of those characters. Told in dual perspectives , this was another amazing work by this author.

After Fragile Scars , I had been eagerly anticipating this book. And it was everything I hoped and more. This book was one tremendous tale of love and friendship.

Both Lexi and Jax have also been introduced in the first part of this series. They finally have a book of their own now! From the moment they met each other , they felt this crazy attraction towards each other.

But Jax has demons of his own , the ones that don't allow him to be in a long relationship. So he proposes a friends with benefits solution to Lexi. Even though Lexi knows that she wants to have more with him , she agrees.

It doesn't take them both to realise that a simple friends with benefits relationship is not enough for them. Now it is upto tune to overcome their demons and fight for each other.

This book was yet another amazing read by this author and had me falling in love with these characters all over again. This book is recommended to all the contemporary romance lovers!!
