In this tour, bloggers are invited to post on the topic of “Finding Love in Unimaginable Places,” one of the themes in Once Upon a Lie.

Well… love can be found everywhere. Therefore the real issue here is to finding the incredible places.

But… once upon a time, I imagined a love story.

And… guess what?

All happens in an imaginable place, with unimaginable objects, between unimaginable beings.

So, let’s transform the unthinkable to possible. Because anything that you can imagine has a chance to become real.

Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Jaleel Robeson is on the run after the police in his tiny Texas town try to frame him for the death of his father. A world away, Alexandra “Alex” Baten is growing up amid all the material comforts a wealthy Los Angeles lawyer can provide. One day, a simple cup of lemonade unites their lives, leading to a maze of adultery and murder that shatters Alex’s youthful innocence and Jaleel’s struggle to reshape his life.

While the forces of the law try to unravel the mysterious death―or at least find a scapegoat―the two youths see the trajectories of their lives entwine, unravel, and come together again. Justice, Alex learns, can be a strange and nebulous thing, easily enmeshed in webs of loyalty and betrayal. Justice, Jaleel finds, can be a powerful―but dangerous―rock on which to build a life of honor and courage. As their stories play out over the years in cities far apart, best-selling author Michael French fills the world of Alex and Jaleel with a cast of vivid characters both supporting and threatening their efforts to build a life that “works” amid the expectancy of others and their own conflicting drives.
