When
you’re born without a trace, no one knows you’re a weapon.
Blurb
It's
not against any formal rule for us to sleep together.
It
is, however, strictly forbidden to have feelings for each other.
I
can't do one without the other at this point.
Which
means I am doomed.
When
you don’t know who you can trust, reality distorts. It twists and
oozes, disintegrating and reformulating to meet whatever needs its
masters demand.
Just
like me.
Just
like Kina.
Except
everything is different now that we know who we really are.
But
there’s a second reality, you see.
This
one can’t be manipulated.
It
just is. Solid and true, it takes our mission, our training, our
orders, turning them into nothing but secrets and lies.
And
this new reality means my old reality is trying to kill everything I
love.
Including
her.

Excerpt
I
pull her into my arms on impulse, her small sound of pain as her
eyebrow brushes against my shoulder making me let go.
“Sorry.”
“No.
It's okay. I like being close to you.”
“You
do?”
“Yes.”
We
breathe into each other, mouths a few inches apart, her features
blurring. An edge lives inside me, vibrant and real, relocating
wherever it's needed. It divides me, making me know the difference
between baseline calm and danger.
I
want to live in baseline with her.
I
want to live with her. Not co-exist.
Live.
She
turns, somber and achingly present.
“We
can't keep doing this.”
“Doing
what?”
“Not
talking about this.”
Instead
of asking her what she means, I slide my hands to her waist, palms
greedy at her curves. She's taut and fit, with more muscle than I can
see. My hands find it, memorize it.
Want
it.
“Let's
talk, then.”
“We're
breaking every rule.” Her eyes flit to the jammer bar on my wrist
again.
“Once
you’ve mastered the rules, you know when you have to break them.”
“We
were never taught that.”
Spinning
me around, his mouth crushes mine, fingers digging into my hair,
palms cupping the back of my neck, his body grinding into mine. I
didn't come here for sex, but I have a feeling I'm not leaving
without it.
I'm
not sure I could leave without it, at this point.

Reviews
and Endorsements for Meli Raine Books:
“The
first book in the False trilogy is a psychological thriller worthy of
Hitchcock, keeping you guessing until the very end.” — Apple
Books Editors
“…intrigue
and dark humor on display in this thriller…”
While
the immediate—and more compelling—tension in Raine’s (A
Shameless Little Bet, 2018, etc.) heart-pumping series opener
comes from Lily’s constant proximity to her would-be killer, the
action takes place against a backdrop of secret government scandals.
The “screwed-up D.C.-insider scandal,” as it is clumsily
summarized early on, is pleasingly twisty…
Fortunately,
Lily’s voice is captivating, wry, and tough enough to sell this
thriller. The novel ends with a cliffhanger that startles, if only
because readers will have become so attached to Lily.
— Kirkus
Reviews
“Fresh,
riveting, and thrumming with emotion and romantic suspense, False
Memory is absolutely unputdownable. You need this book!” - New
York Times bestselling author Meghan March
“I
accidentally lost a day to this trilogy! It is unputdownable.
Apparently I'm on a dark-and-twisty binge, and this book is
addictive.” - USA Today bestselling author Sarina Bowen
