About this listen

The problem with secrets is that they’re too easy to keep collecting.

Luna Allen has done some things she would rather no one ever know about. She also knows that, if she could go back in time, she wouldn’t change a single thing.

With three sisters she loves, a job she (mostly) adores, and a family built up of friends she’s made over the years, Luna figures everything has worked out the way it was supposed to.

But when one of those secrets involves the man who signs her paycheck, she can’t find it in her to regret it. Despite the fact that he’s not the friendliest man in the world. Or the most patient.

Sometimes there are things you’re better off keeping to yourself.

Number one overall Amazon Kindle best seller.

Recommend to people who like street smart characters and a slow burn romance with a great story line,

I liked both narrators, the story itself, character development, Luna’s character and her kind, positive personality.


Such a great story, slow burn,

The Audiobook is really great to listen to. Callie Dalton is a great narrator. The male narrators voice - wasn't sure about it to begin with, but it grew on me over the story and I enjoyed his parts a lot more by the end. I read the ebook first when it was initially released, and loved it so much decided to purchase the audiobook to listen to as well.

Wow. Luna and The Lie was everything I was hoping it would be. It gave me SO many feelings, I had my tissues on standby, and I may have used them a couple of times!

Luna Allen has had a tough upbringing. A hard life growing up has taught her to try and take joy out of the smaller things in life. To be happy. To smile and keep moving forward even during the moments where she may not want to. Luna is also tougher than she appears, I loved the moments during the story where she showed that side of herself. She loves her sisters hard and will do anything for them, even though at times not all of her sisters appear to deserve that unwavering loyalty.

Ripley. Rip. Mr Ripley. I couldn't help but love him the further I read into the story. Rip is a big, imposing, Cranky *with a capital C* man. Oh so cranky. The first time he said "baby girl" I swooned as it was so unexpected. He is not great at times (most of the time!) when it comes to communicating or expressing himself, both as Luna's Bossman or her friend. But when he does get it right, it is so sweet.

Of course Luna and The Lie was a slow burn romance. The anticipation and the wait of it all to come together is so enjoyable, I love slow burn romance.

great story

Having both the male and female voices works really well for this story. It was great too in From Lukov with Love. I’m hoping some of the other Mariana Zapata stories get the same treatment one day.

Dual voices are great

Firstly, let me say that I could listen to Callie and Gomez narrate till the cows come home, especially in the dual narration mode. So add that to the writing of Mariana Zapata and you have an absolute winner. I love everything about this story. Strong though vulnerable h and soul deep passionate H. What can I say ? Keep them coming Mariana and thank you for the pleasure of reading your work.

Mariana is the best.

I normally love her books but I found Luna to be a self deprecating, shot myself in the head whinger!
I’m only 4 hours in so I’m hoping I can update this post soon....fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Hmmmmmm!
