MENDACIOUS by Beth Ashworth
Blog Tour
At the young, naive age of twenty-three, Alex Lewis believed in the deepness of his love and the strength of his marriage to, Libby, his teenage sweetheart. Married for three years, but struggling financially to keep a roof over their heads, Alex thought his wife would stand by him till the bitter end. But she didn’t. His world crashed down around him.
Fast forward seven years, we meet Alex Lewis again. In the time since his divorce, he has matured significantly. Now the founder and domineering CEO of A. L. Investments, a multimillion-pound Investment and Management Company, he couldn’t be more different. The high-flying career he has managed to carve conceals a raw and vulnerable side just under the surface. The scars from his ill-fated marriage run deep, leaving him distant, cold, and alone.
So when his path with Libby crosses and an opportunity for revenge presents itself, Alex jumps at the offer. His mind is determined to make Libby feel the pain he has suffered over the last seven years… but his heart and conscience are fiercely battling against him.
The love of his life is back once again, but who can win in this mendacious game of revenge?

But
what can I say? I’m Alex Lewis after all. The multi-millionaire
with a jackhammer-sized cock. There’s not a woman alive that
doesn’t want a piece of this. And that’s the fucking problem. I
don’t want any of them.
All
because of one girl. She ruined everything by burning her mark deep
inside my chest. She was the girl I’d trusted with my life, and in
return, royally fucked me over. I had decided there and then I’d
never let it happen again. Every move would be calculated precisely.
Each encounter would be strategised to perfection.

Libby.
Damn.
Libby.
Shit.
Libby.
Fuck.
I’m
going to see my ex-wife after almost seven years. I have a million
questions plaguing my already overwhelmed mind. What does she look
like? Is she still the same? How will she react when she sees me?
The
world feels like it’s about to drop out of my arse, but I’m
holding onto the welcome knowledge that I’ve got the upper hand in
all this. She doesn’t know it yet, but she’s signed up for
business suicide with this deal.
And
I’m smug as fuck.
Monday
is when the plan commences and Libby learns exactly who the new Alex
Lewis is, and I’m going to enjoy every fucking minute of it. I’m
sure she’ll be kicking herself when she sees me, and maybe even
more when she realises what I have in store for her.

Ashworth was born in Manchester in 1990, but shortly moved to the
modest city of Coventry where she was raised and still resides now.
As
an avid reader from a very early age, Beth has always been keen to
put her words onto paper. As a child she was always found with either
a book in her hand, a pen and notepad or a computer games
controller.
Starting off by initially writing alternate
endings to her favourite Jacqueline Wilson books from around the age
of ten, Beth has continued to grow and love her passion for
books.
Eventually, after many unfinished books and short
stories, she finally decided to follow her passion and write books
that she hopes people will love.
When she isn't reading or
writing, Beth loves to spend time with her husband and friends.
