Little White Lies
Truth or Lies Series Book 1
by Jude Ouvrard
Genre: New Adult Romance
Publication Date: January 6, 2020
When Hunter Reed’s longtime plans go awry following her college graduation, she has two choices. She
can wallow in her grief, or she can get away from Utah, and the people who broke her. Determined to
escape the shadow of her parents and make it on her own terms, she lands her dream job at an up-and-
coming graphic design company in Portland, packs her bags, and hits the road.
No sooner has Hunter arrived, than the adventures begin. With a new apartment, and learning her job
comes with a private office—and a handsome boss who is her age—she settles in straight away,
befriending neighbors and co-workers alike. Welcomed into the fold, the transition is smooth and easy.
Almost too easy.
Just when she gets comfortable with how perfect her life is going, an unforgettable Elvis at a costume
party will make Hunter forget everything she was taught about propriety, leading to a night of drunken
abandonment and dangerous encounters that will set in motion a web of little white lies which could undo
everything she has worked so hard for.
Although Hunter finds herself facing two choices again, this time, her heart is on the line.
Jude Ouvrard is a mom, a girlfriend, a sister, and a daughter... well, you get the idea.
She's also an avid reader and writer. Ouvrard loves books--the words in them, and the worlds of fantasy
they create. Basically, she's a sucker for any type of romance book. That's her thing.
Born and raised in a small village in the Canadian countryside, it's been nearly two decades since she
moved out of the family home to go explore and enjoy the city life. Living with her longtime boyfriend,
their son, and their fur babies in Montreal, her days are labored away at a law firm while she lives her
dream job by night. Writing. Creating. Giving shape and form to the characters who whisper their stories
in her head.
Ouvrard writes new adult, military, and contemporary romance tales filled with drama, love, and
everything in between.
GUEST POST
Can
you, for those who don't know you already, tell something about
yourself and how you became an author?
When
I was young, elementary school, I started making up stories in my
head and writing them before bed every night. During my teenage
years, I was more into poems and deeper writing. After that, I went
back to writing stories and such but for my own pleasure. After
reading the Twilight Series, I decided to write in English rather
than in French, my first language and things started to change. I
became a published author soon after making the transition.
Where
were you born/grew up at?
I
was born in the country of Quebec,
Canada. Not too far from the border of New York and Vermont. I grew
up with horses, lamb, cats, dogs, cows, you get the idea and later
moved to Montreal to pursue my education.
If
you knew you'd die tomorrow, how would you spend your last day?
With
my family. They are the
reason why I’m here and the most important people in my life. I
don’t care what we would do as long as we’re happy, sharing
memories, making memories and having a good time.
Who
is your hero and why?
Jeff
Buckley is a musician,
songwriter that I admire a lot. I have been listening to his music
for years and I never get tired of it. His way with words and the
melody he creates are simply amazing. HIS VOICE, omg! he was unique.
Sadly, he passed away but his music is still here with us.
What
do you do to unwind and relax?
I
take
a long warm bath, rest,
and watch Netflix later with my laptop on my knees and my manuscript
ready to get more words in.
How
to find time to write as a parent?
I
write late at night or on my way to
and from work.
Describe
yourself in 5 words or less!
Weird,
funny, creative
Do
you have a favorite movie?
I
have many favorite movies
and most of them are books adaptations. Nicholas Sparks, Anna Todd,
in the romance genre or last week, I watched The Witcher on Netflix
and I loved it. If you haven't watched it yet, do it now.
Which
of your novels can you imagine made into a movie?
Lost & Rich
because I can totally see myself laughing at Gracie’s dialog. She’s
all over the place. I would also love to see Little White Lies
because it’s the book I'm most proud of.
As
a writer, what would you choose as your mascot/avatar/spirit animal?
An owl. I love
owls. They are so beautiful and weird at the same time. I would love
to pet one or hold one but they aren't really friendly.
Thanks for stopping by! Question: What advice would you give to writers today?
