A breakup. A car accident. A kind gesture. Partial Truths explores the consequences of meeting the perfect person at the worst possible time. Camila and Ben-both in graduate school-meet in a UCLA Spanish class and become fast friends. He is enamored by her bohemian upbringing in a Mexican-Persian family, and she is charmed by his integrity and thoughtfulness. As both begin to feel the pull of romance, Camila learns of Ben's secret.
Choices are made and lines are crossed, changing the trajectory of their lives until their paths cross again ten years later. Partial Truths is a love story for all those who've ever wondered: What if I had chosen another path? What if I hadn't let them go?
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"The writing here is evocative, utilizing short sentences full of emotional intensity that fill even the smallest and most innocent of moments with sexual tension..." -Indie Reader
"Set against the vibrant backdrop of Los Angeles, this modern love story offers everything: a strong, career-driven heroine, electrifying chemistry, and twists you won't see coming. The main characters have a real, steamy attraction -the kind that's messy, thrilling, and impossible to resist."
-Beth Hamilton - author of The Ultimate Stress-Relief Plan for Women
"The characters are well-drawn, and the supporting cast (especially Camila's loving Mexican mother, Iranian paternal grandmother, and gay best friend Tyler) are charming and likable."
-Indie Reader
"A truly beautiful love story .. so well written that I could 'see and feel' the two cultures that are Camilla." -Jenny Jaque
"Camila herself is delightful in her independence, fierce determination, and sensuality..." -Indie Reader
"An absolute page turner! The perfect display of magnetism and tension within a forbidden love." -Eline Wilson
"... this is a moving and emotionally powerful book, and the ending will appeal to readers who don't like neat, easy solutions." -Indie Reader
"Partial Truths brings you right in and grips your heart the entire way. You never really leave the characters- only keep thinking about the past and future of each. They feel like friends you want to call and check in with... it's rare a book has that power. I was left with only wanting more." -Johanna Dubyak
