Description:

A semi finalist in the 2011 Amazon Breaththrough Novel Awards for young adults, "Shades of Truth" is a novel about the power of truth and who tells it. After nearly being kidnapped in a bakery, Cadrian Summerlynn decides the next time her father hands her a purse and tells her to take it to Lisbon, the answer is no. Emphasis on the no. If there even is a next time, as her father's disappeared and all his scary associates seem to think she has what he promised them. And she might, only she isn't entirely sure. She might be able to tell if only Lucas Colton didn't keep distracting her. Too handsome for his own good, he has definite ideas about her father and where Cadrian fits in. Forced to work together with neither telling the complete truth, will they discover her father's secrets without killing the other?
