#BookReview: The Ugly Truth (Cantos Chronicles #2) by C.L. Walters

Synopsis: If faced with perpetuating the perfect lie or confessing the ugly truth, which would you choose?

Seth Peters has been angry for a long time. Living with an abusive, alcoholic father has that effect. When he wakes up in a hospital - outside of his body - due to an accident that he doesn’t remember, Seth is no longer angry, he’s terrified.

As his memories begin to return, he is confronted with a legacy of lies he’s constructed to survive the pain of his own life. Realizing he’s no different than the man he’s loathed his whole life, Seth learns that his choices have set into motion far-reaching and terrible consequences.

Challenged with wallowing in the pain or confronting his fears and admitting to the ugly truth about himself, Seth must decide if facing what he fears most to save his friend’s life is worth the risk of losing his own.

My Review: Where book one started out slow this one did not.  We have a new POV in Seth from book one and I have to say that I kind of didn't like him very much.  But, once I started this book I became very sympathetic about the situations that he was in.  He was a great character in this story.  I got to know him and why he was the way he was.  He was flawed and that made him so real.   

In this one we got to see the characters from book one which was awesome.  I always like to check in with characters that I have fallen in love with.  

"From the start, Walters pulled me in with her beautifully written words. She painted a picture of a young man, Seth Peters, who is searching for the truth..." Laurie Holbrook, author Still Out There
