Good Guys Don't Lie by Micalea Smeltzer is now live!
I've been nothing but a failure to my parents my entire life. I know I'll never live up to their level of perfection, but it doesn't matter. Especially, when I'm about to fail the same class twice.
It seems like I'm doomed until my professor tells me he knows the perfect guy to tutor me—if he'll agree.
Cree Madison is the star player on the hockey team, bound for NHL superstardom, and my last hope. I'm willing to do almost anything for his help.
When I meet up with him, his eyes light up and he says, "I've been looking for you."
Only I don't know him, and I've never met him before now.
I'm willing to pretend to be whoever he wants me to be if it means I pass this class.
But lies have a way of getting out of hand and neither one of us is prepared for the fallout when everything comes to light.

My Rating - 4 Stars!
Cree and Ophelia are both likeable characters. I enjoy that Cree is much more than a student athlete. He is determined, thoughtful, and wonderfully swoony. Meanwhile Ophelia is way more than one would expect. She's sweet for sure and amazingly well developed. She has autism which is written is a refreshing way. The author excels in illustrating the way an autistic brain works differently and causes some problems with social issues for an autistic person. I absolutely love how this is all done and appreciate that she is shown as awkward at times, but never "less than." Well done.
This one is definitely unique with a confusing and unexpected second chance. I don't want to spoil anything, but when Cree finally finds Ophelia again, she doesn't remember him. I could feel his emotions for her were genuine, but the author left me waiting to figure out why. It makes for a nice little guessing game.
I am thrilled to finally get to Cree's story and enjoy it but something kept me from absolutely loving it the way I have other books in the series. I think it might be the lying game they were both playing. With both characters lying for so long, it kept them from truly being open and honest with one another.
Overall Good Guys Don't Lie is a cute college romance. This Micalea Smeltzer read is low angst, high steam, and kept me entertained throughout. As for now, I am anxiously awaiting the next book in the series!!
