The Reality Of Us / The Story of Us by Emma Mugglestone

Description

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.
That’s a life lesson Alice Aspinall, a reality TV starlet trapped in a fake marriage, has learnt the hard way. When her carefully curated life explodes, she flees to the small town of Wattle Junction. Trying to reinvent herself—again—while learning to stand on her own two feet is complicated and so are her feelings for her hot, new lawyer.

Owen James is a helper, despite what people say about his serious personality. He’s recently moved home to set up his law firm with a focus on making sure everyone who needs legal advice gets it. Think of him as Legal Aid … but with better biceps, two mortgages and a conscience that keeps him up at night. Another thing stealing his sleep? The sparkly, pretty newcomer who drives him up the wall while constantly surprising him.

As Alice and Owen’s attraction heats up and they get to know each other—and themselves—will they be able to see the reality right in front of them? Or will they remain blind to the truth?
