Remy’s just graduated college and… been kidnapped! Sent to auction. And she doesn’t have the vaguest idea why.
But intractable businessman Isaiah Grommet knows why, knows what he’s purchased, knows what Remy was bred for, knows what she is: a Liar Charm. After the requisite training from Pakken, Inc., Remy and her newfound little genetic talent will be invaluable to Isaiah’s billionaire empire –voluntary or not.
But when it comes to enslaved servitude hipster Remy has some pretty intractable ideas of her own –creatively inventive ones if you want to be charitable, hilarious brain-bleached ones if you want to be accurate.
Awakening in a locked room atop a New York City high-rise with other bewildered young women, Remy was told only that there’s going to be a “social” event; it’s the Pakken Liar Charms Auction from which Remy –almost– escapes. Flown home afterwards to his estate by Isaiah, Isaiah tells thunderstruck Remy what her new future is to be: like it or not she’ll be using her new talent working for him. Or, she can face the wrath (not to mention the executioner) of Pakken itself, a company made up of men who father very special daughters for their own very special gain.
One Pakken father though has had enough –and he’s secretly doing something about it. Another one is too but in the decidedly opposite direction. And Remy? If Pakken finds out what Remy REALLY is, what Isaiah accidentally did that regrettably requires her immediate eradication, Remy’s training with bio-Dad, the President of Pakken himself, may well be her last blast of fake-the-funk evah!
Then again, being Remy, she’ll probably just land-it-in-the-Hudson.
THE LIAR CHARMS is a snarkily humorous standalone thriller.
