Blog Tour + Review: The Truth About Us by Aly Martinez
The conclusion to the heart-stopping Truth Duet by Aly Martinez just went live!
Today we are celebrating the release of the second book in The Truth Duet by Aly Martinez. The Truth About Us is now available! The first book in the duet, The Truth About Lies, is available too and both titles can be read for FREE as part of KindleUnlimited!
Synopsis:
Truth: Penn Walker entered my life like a summer storm—dark, ominous, and filled with thunder.
After witnessing my husband’s murder, I didn’t have much of a heart left to offer a man.
But Penn took it all.
Every jagged shard.
Every broken bit.
Even the dirty and twisted pieces that I wish never existed.
Lie: I didn’t need him to save me.
Lie: I knew exactly who he was.
Lie: Losing him wouldn’t destroy me.
But that’s the thing about lies—you never know who to believe.

"We are the truth, Cora. We are the only truth in this entire fucked-up situation."
"Different can be beautiful. We came from different worlds-I will give you that. But I lived in yours, and now, you're going to live in mine. Because we belong together."
This book starts off where we left off in The Truth About Lies. I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book because I loved the previous one. The Truth About Us was a bit more suspenseful which I really enjoyed. After the ending in the first book of this Duet, I was very impatient to see how the story would develop. Aly Martinez did an outstanding job in telling Cora and Penn's story. I love these characters so much, and I was rooting for them to get their HEA. Penn will do anything to keep Cora safe, and that she can finally live her life without being in danger and constantly looking over her shoulders. Penn comes from a very different world, but he did a great job in adapting to his environment. He is a very down to earth loyal guy, and I find that very attractive.
The Truth Duet is another great suspenseful contemporary romance. Aly always does such a phenomenal job in coming up with original stories, with intriguing characters. I was hooked until the end, and the author also did a great job in keeping the reader guessing. The only thing is that I wanted this story to be longer. I just wanted more because I love these characters so much. I wanted a bit more suspense, and I thought the final climax happened a bit earlier than I would've liked. But overall I was satisfied with the story, and the extra chapter in a secondary character's POV was an extra bonus I loved. I want to know more about what was told in that chapter, so I am super excited that there will be a book telling us more about that.
