This is not a slow burn, but it is going to sting all the same.

Bonded by death.
Caged by obsession.
Taunted by love.
Saved by lies.

​

A senior psychology major and an ex-addict turned tenured professor have an unspoken bond that goes beyond the typical student-mentor relationship. As Shae Rossi's graduation looms in the coming months, the controlled world she created begins to unravel. Walls dutifully kept are let down as she and Dr. Devan Keith find solace in each other's arms.

Their newfound relationship leads Devan to discover a horrific truth: Shae has spent the last three years trapped in a web of lies and abuse spun by the corrupt dean of Blackburn College
and his son, Bailey, Shae's boyfriend. When Devan finds Shae in an alley being tormented, he beats Bailey within an inch of his life, earning himself a faux badge as an active assailant, and Shae his hostage.
 

Devan and Shae must use their expertise in psychology to expose the small-town kings in a city with deep-rooted corruption or face deadly consequences.

 

319 Lies is seven days of chaos following years of pain; a desperate fight for love and survival. There's a Good Old Boys club at
Blackburn College and Devan isn't invited. But, chains are meant to be broken, and he's about to fight his way in to save the woman he loves.
