They share an epic love, but one moment changes everything.
A life together that seemed certain is shattered.
One learns you never love the same way twice;
the other learns what it means to come home.
You only think you know how this love story goes, but do you really know how an epic love can end?
She is living color, and I’ve been in a black-and-white world for far too long without her.
Powerful stuff. It surrounds me. I’ve felt it since I first arrived. The forcefield of her. The magnetism of her. The power she wields over me. I’m alive again because of her, like a dying plant that finally gets some water. I’ve got it bad for this girl.
Reality dawns.
The light comes through the darkness and shines on me.
She’s my water.
-Lincoln Presley
The truth is I breathe with him. He is my air. Raison d’etre.
-Tally Landon
The Truth About Air & Water, The Truth About Lies Book 2
This is the second novel in the THE TRUTH ABOUT LIES series. The series is comprised of the following books
THIS MUCH IS TRUE
THE TRUTH ABOUT AIR & WATER
TELL ME SOMETHING TRUE
Author's note This novel is part of the The Truth About Lies series. It can be read as standalone, however, fans of my fiction highly recommend that those new to my work, READ This Much Is True book 1 FIRST. Additionally. Rest up, carve out some time, and have tissues and wine ready and, perhaps, your drug of choice nearby, at least Advil, and then you'll be ready to dive in. This is NOT your mama's light, little romance, but if you love dark story lines with plenty of angst and turmoil, all mixed up by truth and lies, read on and BUY this book series. There now. I've said this more than once. My work is done.
As Lincoln Presley would say, "do as you must, Princess."

The Truth About Air Water The Truth About Lies Book 2 eBook Katherine Owen
The first book ended with Linc and Tally happy at last, but we only got to see that happiness for about 5 seconds. So I (apparently, stupidly) assumed that in this book we would get some time with the happy couple before the drama starts. Nope! In what I can only take as a sign that these two people are not meant to be together, they are unhappy right off the bat. Linc is unhappy that Tally can never give him a son (and honestly seems like a total douchebag in the beginning of the book), Tally is unhappy that baseball is pretty much Linc's entire life. Both things that they have known about each other. So, again, why are they together?********************Some minor spoilers follow********************
Link gets hit with a baseball during a game, and he loses his memory. For me, this plot device seems too contrived. Link doesn't remember Tally (or that he has a child) at all, and his loved ones (especially his dad) think that he should be left in the dark about his life. He's lost the past six years, and he's aware of this, but never thinks to google himself or Tally to see if he's missing something? Sigh.
Tally is understandably hurt and pissed, but for some reason goes along with not telling Linc who she is. So this book, like the first one, has Tally and Linc apart for almost the entire time. Linc continues to hurt and piss off Tally, though his google incapability leaves him powerless to know who Tally is to him. So, Tally does what she does best and finds a new guy whose goal in life is to be her doormat. Sam is pretty much interchangeable with Rob from the first book, and for the life of me I cannot understand why any guy would want to get caught up in Tally's miserable life.
I love you. I hate you. I love you. I hate you. Over and over. Eventually things get resolved between them (again by an overly contrived plot device), but again, not until the very last chapter, so there is barely any glimpsing of happiness for the reader. Is this a HEA? Not to me. These are two people who should not be together. In 5+ years they've probably only spent a matter of weeks actually together, and they have had more drama than most people would have in 10 lifetimes. They seem to bring out the worst in each other, and never actually fixed what was wrong between them. He's still going to be ultra focused on baseball and she's still going to resent him for it.
I will readily admit Katherine Owen can write, she's very talented. In a lesser author's hands this probably would have been a one or two star read, or maybe even a DNF.

The Truth About Air Water The Truth About Lies Book 2 eBook Katherine Owen Reviews
Lincoln Presley & Tally Landon are about to grab your heart. Wait for it, because it is bound to happen within the first few chapters.
Its been weeks since I finished The Truth About Air & Water and just writing this tonight makes me reflect on the characters and the emotion that went into this book. I start to get chills immediately. How am I going to explain to you, the blog reader how much this book will change your life? How am I going to express my feelings when my thoughts are so intense? Well, I am going to give it a go because you will surely be missing out on something great if you don't pick this series up and pick it up pronto!.
So if you haven't read This Much Is True, the first installment of Tally Landon and Lincoln Presley, I have to ask, what are you doing with your life? Go read the first book now! Its perfect, just as wonderful as this second book is but still a totally mind absorbing, emotional gripping phenomenon.
Tally Landon is a prima ballerina, she has finally made that dream come true. Lincoln Presley is the star of his major league baseball team. Their jobs keep them busy and open to public ridicule constantly.
Lincoln (Elvis as Tally calls him) and Tally are engaged, they are finally getting their happily ever after. But truly, can Tally really believe that nothing is going to mess this up. After all, everything always gets screwed up for Tally, right when she starts to hope and believe in her happiness, everything inevitably gets blown to smithereens. Lincoln does what he can, to make sure Tally knows that everything will be fine. He even goes to see the church Tally wants to get married at, even though he knows there is no possible way they can get married at a church that holds less than hundred people.
First they are one happy family. Lincoln and Tally are engaged with daughter Cara. Then tragedy strikes this couple so fully that it BREAKS YOUR HEART.
First they are together.
Then they aren't.
First you are crying with happiness.
Then you are yelling at the characters.
And no you don't think that is weird at ALL!
It's heartbreaking, exciting, gripping, emotional, tension filled and maddening all at the same time.
How can these characters keep going through so much? Will they ever find their way back to who they were before?
Let's discuss Tally for a second. She is one of the most complex characters I've ever read . I love and hate her at the same time. There were parts in the story when I thought she was being so strong, she did everything she could to hide her pain. She was strong, even when it was almost impossible for her to be. But then there were many parts of me, that was really annoyed with him. She gives up too easily. She claims to love but to protect herself, she acts cold. She says she can't go on, but then she seems to be going on just fine in some parts of the story. Tally was quick to blame Lincoln for a lot but never once thought to look at herself.
Katherine Owen has written a few books. I've read every single one of them and reviewed them. I have fell in love with her way of emotional writing. I have fell in love with everyone of her characters. However, I never knew how far her writing could go, till I opened this book. She has surpassed even her own books this time. There are some writers that I constantly wonder why they don't have millions of people reading their books, she is now on the TOP of that list. She is as good or even better than some of the NY Times Best Selling Authors.
I leave you with this as my last words.
“So that’s the truth about air and water.” She sighs deep.“Which is?”“It’s hard to maintain the balance to keep the fire going. You have to fan the flames without putting it out with too much water. But too little water will burn the fire right up. Too much fire. Too much destruction. We’re out of control.”“You’re talking in circles,” I say.“No. That’s us,” she says with certainty.”
I am not sure why most of the reviews I have read for this book are bad, or at the very least, not very promising.
I loved this book and its predecessor, This Much is True.
Everyone suffers tragedy at some point in their lives, but Tally suffers tragedy more than most. And still lives to tell about it. I felt the things that Tally did and there are points in this book that I was definitely in tears-sobbing like a baby, actually. Not sure how much one person has to endure to prove that she can be strong. That she is a survivor! There is a 3rd book coming later this year and I wait-impatiently-for it.
I have never read anything by this author and until I read This Much is True, I had never heard of her.
Since finishing this book, I have purchased everything else she has published to this point.
I have found that her characters suffer loss-sometimes more than once-but still manage to come through it. Maybe a little worse for the wear, but they come through it.
There were parts of this book that made me want to hug Tally. Slap Linc! That man! But in reality, these things really do happen. People die. People get injured. People change. Nobody's perfect, especially the characters in these books. But that's why you have to love them, because they could be people that you know. Family. Friends. Wife or husband.
If you haven't read anything by Katherine Owen, I think the Truth about Lies Series is one you should start.
It is definitely one that I will read again. And again.
The first book ended with Linc and Tally happy at last, but we only got to see that happiness for about 5 seconds. So I (apparently, stupidly) assumed that in this book we would get some time with the happy couple before the drama starts. Nope! In what I can only take as a sign that these two people are not meant to be together, they are unhappy right off the bat. Linc is unhappy that Tally can never give him a son (and honestly seems like a total douchebag in the beginning of the book), Tally is unhappy that baseball is pretty much Linc's entire life. Both things that they have known about each other. So, again, why are they together?
