Tell Me Lies

Marrying her was supposed to be transactional, so why was he ready to risk the empire just to save her?

Benji Won had faced consequences before, but never one like this. As acting CFO of his family's empire, every move he made had to be precise-especially under the watchful eye of a father who already thought his focus was slipping. All it took was one bad judgement call and his father had enough.

It was either lose his chance of taking over the company he worked so hard to maintain... or marry her.

Skai Monroe was everything Benji wasn't. She spent her life chasing freedom through music, through dreams too fragile for the ruthless world she was born into. She never wanted to belong to a dynasty, let alone to a man who looked at her like she was a responsibility he never asked for.

But when her family's fortune begins to crumble, she's forced to say yes to a life she never wanted... and a husband she doesn't understand.

It should've been simple-a contract, a set end date, two strangers playing their roles-but somewhere between lingering glances and heated moments, something shifted. The closer they got, the harder it became to pretend it was only an arrangement.

And when the truth behind Skai's "falling empire" began to surface, everything started to fracture.

Now Benji must choose:
Hold on to the empire he had spent his life earning... or risk everything for the one person who's taught him how to feel.

An arranged marriage. A crumbling empire. One marriage. One secret. One lie that could ruin them both.

Tell Me Lies is a slow-burn, tension-filled billionaire romance about duty, deception, and the quiet, dangerous way love begins to grow where it was never meant to.

Tell Me Lies is book two of the Written In Ink series and can be read as a standalone 🫶🏽 while there are no spoilers, I'd recommend reading book one so you get a full grasp on Benji and a brief tease about Skai ☺️
