NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - In this irresistible novel from the author of All We Ever Wanted and Something Borrowed, a young woman falls hard for an impossibly perfect man before he disappears without a trace.
But the questions pile up fast: How well did she really know Grant? Did he ever really love her? And is it possible to love a man who wasn\'t who he seemed to be? The Lies That Bind is a mesmerizing and emotionally resonant exploration of the never-ending search for love and truth--in our relationships, our careers, and deep within our own hearts.
Her investigative reporting instincts kick into action as she vows to discover the truth.
Fearing the worst, Cecily spots his face on a missing-person poster, and realizes she is not the only one searching for him.
Then Grant disappears in the chaos of 9/11.
Yet despite all their obstacles, they can\'t seem to say goodbye, and for the first time in her carefully constructed life, Cecily follows her heart instead of her head.
Moreover, their timing couldn\'t be worse--Grant is preparing to quit his job and move overseas.
That should be it, they both decide the next morning, as Cecily reminds herself of the perils of a rebound relationship.
Something tells her to listen, and over the next several hours--and shots of tequila--the two forge an unlikely connection.
As Cecily reaches for the phone to call him, she hears a guy on the barstool next to her say, Don\'t do it--you\'ll regret it.
