The Billion Pound Lie by Bill Dare

4.0

Leo is just an ordinary guy who is down on his luck, his ex wife has started seeing a new guy, his job is not making as much money as he'd like, and he is about to be evicted. One day, he wakes up and he has won the billion pound jackpot on the lottery...or has he?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Leo was such a likeable main character, with problems that I suspect so many people have been through, and/or are currently going through. It begs the question, if people believed you had won the lottery, what would you do? I also admired how he managed to get through the whole situation without actually telling any lies.
The whole book was set in the UK, and being from the UK, I love reading fiction books set in this country, as I can picture the areas very well.
I could not take to Vince the more the story went on, I felt like he was just becoming bored and I honestly thought he would end up giving Leo away and spilling the beans.

All in all though, I will definitely be reading some more books from Bill Dare.
I did receive a complimentary ebook copy of this book thanks to the author and BookSirens, and I was under no obligation to leave a review. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own and are unbiased.
