A role on a reality show brings new friendships and a clue that sends Skye and her friends on a road trip to look for him. The journey connects her search for family to a wider uncertainty about her own past, as the story’s central conflict turns on trust, deception, and the possibility that what Skye believes about her life may not be true.

Book overview

WHAT IF YOUR WHOLE LIFE WAS BASED ON LIES?

 

Sixteen-year-old Skye Perry has grown up fast in the shadows of Hollywood's glittering lights. Amidst her struggling acting career and the chaotic life with her mother, Skye clings to the mystery of her father, the man she's never met but believes is the key to a better life.

 

When Skye's luck suddenly changes and she lands a role on a reality show, she's swept into a world of unexpected friendships and a clue to the whereabouts of her father. But when Skye and her friends set off on a road trip to find him, a tangled web of lies and shocking revelation surrounding her past starts to unravel.

 

As she plummets into the unknown, if Skye is to ever find the life that was always meant to be hers, she'll have to trust her heart as she navigates through the deception that will ultimately redefine her very existence.
