Zina and Robert Roman put on a show of the perfect marriage. Robert has an up and coming computer networking business which means late nights, extravagant dinners and countless hours away from home. While Zina has an intriguing job in Human Resources but has way too much time on her hands. In need of a break from the hum drum monotony of daily life, Zina ventures off on an extended weekend alone to clear her head. Zina takes the time to come to grips with Robert’s roaming eye and her intense loneliness. Robert (feeling guilty) pulled out all the stops to make sure that Zina enjoys herself in New Orleans – first-class plane ticket, luxury hotel suite, personal driver and VIP tickets to all festival events. It worked but Zina never realized she would meet someone that would catch her eye and capture a spot in her heart.
Enter the supporting cast – Rayna (Zina’s best friend) and Kendall (Robert’s football buddy). These two people play important roles in the Roman’s marriage. Zina and Roman are forced to tell lie after lie to cover up what they don’t want the other to know. They never realized that they both were in the wrong until it was almost too late. Their insidious twist of lies builds up to an ending that will take your breath away.
Jones creates a visual picture of deceit with the vivid descriptions, character analysis and situations written. The storyline builds to an unbelievable frenzy that holds true to the title. The novel ends with a bunch of questions that hopefully will be addressed in the sequel. Twisted Lies is everything an avid reader looks for – drama, passion, deceit, steamy sex scenes and heartache.
