**"I'M NOT SAYING THIS IS SAWYER'S FAULT,"
THE PRIM AND PROPER ONE SAID DELICATELY. "BUT."**
**E**ighteen-year-old auto mechanic Sawyer Taft did not expect her estranged grandmother to show up at her apartment and offer her a six-figure contract to participate in debutante season. And she definitely never imagined she would accept. But when she realizes that immersing herself in her grandmother's "society" might mean discovering the answer to the biggest mystery of her life--her father's identity--she signs on the dotted line and braces herself for a year of makeovers, big dresses, bigger egos, and a whole lot of *bless your heart*. The one thing she doesn't expect to find is friendship, but as she's drawn into a group of debutantes with scandalous, dangerous secrets of their own, Sawyer quickly discovers that her family isn't the only mainstay of high society with skeletons in their closet. There are people in her grandmother's glittering world who are not what they appear, and no one wants Sawyer poking her nose into the past. As she navigates the twisted relationships between her new friends and their power parents, Sawyer's search for the truth about her own origins is just the beginning.
Set in the world of debutante balls, grand estates, and rolling green hills, *Little White Lies* combines a charming setting, a classic fish-out-of-water story, and the sort of layered mystery only author Jennifer Lynn Barnes can pull off.

Reviews with the most likes.
Every series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes stars the exact same protagonist, regardless of the name - a clever, sarcastic, brilliant teenage girl with cutting wit. She's always lost one or both parents. She's poor but is suddenly whisked away in a life where she is surrounded by luxury. She is self contained and slow to trust since she's either never had family or has lost it, but over the course of the book comes to find her real family, true and/or metaphorical. She's always surrounded by the same sidekicks, all who are also teenagers who speak in a way no real teenager does. At least one likes explosions and at least one is very socially inept. And of course there's a handsome boy who is too noble for his own good.
And maybe that would be a problem, if they weren't all so damn fun and enjoyable, and with pretty interesting and unique stories and narrative. It's ok for me that the protagonist of every series is basically the same, because I want MORE of that protagonist. I really enjoy reading every single series by her.
