A forbidden love. Behind the scenes of the popular 1950s Wes Goodwin Show, Kathryn and Alice fell for one another. But love could never be enough. A refounding.

Nearly two decades late, a live talk show forces them together again. Can they ever reconcile what happened?

Well, that was a rollercoaster! A beautifully written story about how loving differently than what was expected at the time was hard and how it came with a heavy cost. It also tackles heavy subjects like how women were treated and expected to act in society, alcoholism, addiction and eating disorders. It broke my heart multiple times but I totally fell in love with both of the characters and wanted to just dive into the story to hold them. I cheered, cried, booed and cheered again. I loved this story. Beautifully narrated, fully fleshed out, real human characters and really touch subject matters. Bravo to both author and narrator.

Now I need to go cry some more.

I need a hug, a stiff drink and a cigarette

I don’t even know where to begin with this beautiful story. It tore my heart apart, shredded it, and then put it back together, leaving me feeling a profound sense of reflection. Set in the 1950s on the backdrop of a sitcom, Kathryn Anderson shines as an established, older actress. Joined by Alice Kincaid, a talented actress ten years her junior, the narrative explores the complexities of queer love and identity. Kathryn embraces her bisexuality in her open marriage, while Alice hides her sexuality in the shadows of her controlled existence with an abusive husband. As the two women’s connection deepens, Kathryn finds solace in her struggles through substance abuse and Alice battles an eating disorder, a problem that stemmed from her mother.

Spanning decades and culminating in 2003, the story beautifully captures the essence of resilience and transformation. While I usually prefer stories that focus on a specific stage of life rather than wrapping everything up at the end of a character’s life, this tale unfolds seamlessly, embracing the fullness of existence. I look forward to more of Woiwood’s stories if this is any indication of what magic she can create with words.

This was the first story I heard narrated by Kimberly Wetherell, and it showcased her remarkable talent. With a full cast of characters and the challenge of aging the actresses' voices, she delivered captivating performances. Wetherell infused Kathryn with that classic Hollywood sound, gravelly and rich with experience and cigarettes, while Alice's more timid and insecure voice brought depth to her character. She even masterfully embraced a native German accent for multiple characters. The romantic scenes created by Woiwood, though nearly fade-to-black, were filled with such intensity and anticipation that Wetherell's narration left me feeling profoundly fulfilled, as if every detail had been shared and leaving nothing to the imagination. This will not be my last Wetherell audio and I think we have a new forever match made with Woiwood and Wetherell. I cannot wait for more!

Woiwood + Wetherell = new perfect match

Excerpt from book:

Interviewer: So this is a movie about being gay?
Alice: No, it’s a movie about life. About the limitations a woman has placed on her that keep her from her true desires.

This is not a traditional romance but it is a story of two flawed women who, in spite of themselves and the times they live in, have a deep, enduring love.

The Veracity of Lies is a beautifully written emotional love story that has been brought to life by an exceptional and talented narrator.

I didn’t think I would cry…I did.

Beautifully Written and Masterfully Narrated

I couldn't finish. The beginning was great till the second act. The chemistry was off between the 2 MCs. Just felt toxic. half the time I'm not sure what's happening. The writing feels off.
