Sharyan Alleyne Pens OUR LIVES

Megan has no idea that her live-in boyfriend Stephen is about to propose - nor does she want him to. But she's been living a lie and has not told him that she's actually in love with his best friend, Matt. Their friend Tom discovers the lie and sets out to confront the pair, but fate intervenes. Their stories are described in a new novel released by Dog Ear Publishing, showing the risks of what can happen when the light of day hits secrets hidden in the shadows.

"Our Lives," set in Chicago, also features Austin Michaels, a ruthless businessman who will let nothing stop him from getting what he wants for his spoiled daughter, Grace. What he wants now is for Grace to attend an elite design school run by another of Megan's friends, Sam, but she won't even consider it unless she can talk to Grace, who is in rehab for taking drugs. Austin does not take the news well.

Tom is in a coma, thanks to the accident, and that event begins to unravel the circle of friends, especially Matt and Megan, who now realizes how much she loves Stephen. But her betrayal of him may come out if Tom regains consciousness or another friend reveals what she knows. Others have worries of their own, including one friend being blackmailed, and a new couple in town are up to no good. A recovering alcoholic falls off the wagon, and more than one person wants revenge. Relationships, new and old, transform in this unforgettable novel of suspense.

Author Sharyan Alleyne came to the United States from Barbados, working to provide care to children for most of her career. The former tomboy now writes stories and lives in a Massachusetts suburb.
