She came looking for the truth. She didn't expect to fall in love with the one man it would destroy.
Della Ashworth has spent her whole life as her family's best-dressed asset, poised, agreeable, and one arranged marriage away from disappearing into it completely. When her grandmother dies, leaving behind a confession and a name, Della runs, takes a job under a fake identity at a struggling antique shop by the sea, and starts digging for the one piece of proof that could finally set her free.
On the other side, Gideon Callahan doesn't trust easily, not since his father's "accident" three years ago, and not since he started running a quiet, patient con against the very family he blames for it. He definitely doesn't trust the sharp-tongued, too-curious new hire who keeps getting caught somewhere she shouldn't be.
Neither of them expects the late nights, the easy laughter, or the way trust creeps in anyway. But some lies don't stay buried, and when the truth finally surfaces, publicly, catastrophically, in front of both their families... it will cost them everything they thought they wanted, and force them to decide what's actually worth fighting for.
Everything I Never Told Him is a slow-burn, secret-identity romance about the lies we tell to survive, the truths we're terrified to say out loud, and a love that has to burn everything down before it can finally be honest.
This book includes: secret identity • enemies-to-lovers/rivals-to-lovers • forced proximity • found family • small-town coastal setting • emotional slow burn
