The 99th Lie

Lily thought Ethan’s promise—“a hundred times before marriage”—meant love. Instead, it was a three-year conspiracy with his ex Serena: hidden cameras, stolen heirlooms, a fake pregnancy. On their engagement day, Lily jumped off a cliff. She survived, but lost her baby and her perfect leg. Two years later, she returns as an award‑winning game designer. And the man who broke her finally pays with his life—shielding her from the final blow.
