Authors Spotlight: Lies of the Forgotten By Ciera Nichele (Review + Interview)

We only get one life to live, but we spend the first half of it trying to figure out who we are.Lies of the Forgotten

When a person has a traumatic accident that results in memory loss they lean on the people closest to them for support. They entrust their friends and family to guide them through, help them and protect them.
That is exactly the kind of support  the main character, London, from Ciera Nichele’s new book “Lies of the Forgotten” received for the eight months following her car accident, or so she thought.
With faint memories seeping through in dreams and talks with her therapist London begins to feel a sense of imbalance as if something is missing or not being said and then suddenly her world, or the world she’s come to know after the memory loss, comes crashing in with a dose of reality from her past.
London soon sets out to reclaim what she believes is her true life as she tries to make sense of what she feels is the ultimate betrayal. What she begins to learn is that what was lost and forgotten may have been for the better or was it?
Lies of the Forgotten is about trust, betrayal, love, passion, lies, lies and more lies from those closest to London and even more so from London herself.
Author, Ciera Nichele takes you on a world wind adventure through London’s past and present as London tries to figure out who is the enemy and who she should trust. 

Can she even trust herself at this point?
London’s parents play an integral role as the story goes along but are very minimally discussed. The main focus is on the relationships that have developed between London and the men in her life. 

Her ex, Kaylon, is probably the most developed character. I definitely went back and forth several times between having compassion for him and loathing him.
I recommend Lies of the Forgotten if you’re into suspense, romance and thrillers. You’ll get a nice balanced mixture of the three as Nichele’s writing style blends them in perfectly.
Lies of the Forgotten is a great story that doesn’t necessarily have a fairy tale happy ending but, you will be satisfied with the outcome. 

There are still some unanswered questions in the end and there is enough room for Nichele to possibly write a sequel.

You can purchase a copy of Lies of the Forgotten on Amazon.com ,  Lulu.com or Itunes.

What inspired you to become a writer?

Reading inspired me to be a writer. I have always chosen books over television. The fact that you can create your own world with the turn of a page called to me. So why note create a world for someone else to read?
Who is your favorite author?
I would have to say Sylvia Day. She has a way with words that makes the reader want more.
Describe your book in 30 words or less.
“Lies of the Forgotten” is about a girl name London who lost her memory. Throughout the story she is trying to figure out who she really is.
What are the last three books you read?
Crossfire Series by Sylvia Day – It’s a perfect mix of love, drama, and passion.
Mortal Instruments Series by Cassandra Clare – She gives the fantasy world a human face and reminds us that angels are indeed warriors.
Kidnapped the Wrong Sister by Marie Kelly – I love this story because it shows you that love doesn’t always happen at first sight.
