The Godmother's Lie

by Alexander Lopez

When Emma accepts the honor of becoming godmother to her best friend's newborn daughter, she never imagines the sacred promise will shatter both their lives. Years later, a single devastating moment forces Emma to make an impossible choice—one that will save little Lily but destroy the trust Mara has placed in her. Now Emma must live with a secret so dangerous that the truth could tear their friendship apart forever, while the lie grows heavier with each passing day. As Lily grows older and starts asking questions, the carefully constructed story begins to unravel, threatening to expose what really happened that night. Some promises are meant to be broken, but the cost of breaking them may be more than anyone can bear.
