Sweet as Sin
Songs To Stories Volume XI
Inspired By: Don't Blame Me by Taylor Swift
She told the truth until it broke her. Then she learned the power of a lie.
Sixteen-year-old Melody Meyers has always believed in the holiness of love—the kind that can redeem, transform, even save. But when her first love, Nick, drifts toward the luminous older tutor who seems too perfect to be real, devotion curdles into something darker. One storm-soaked night, an act of jealousy leaves a woman dead, and a small Pennsylvania town desperate for someone to blame.
Caught between innocence and guilt, Melody learns how easily a story can become salvation—and how belief can turn even the ugliest truth into something beautiful. Years later, when the young lawyer who once helped her escape the impossible returns home, he discovers that sin doesn’t wash clean. It only hides beneath the shine.
Sweet as Sin is a lyrical, slow-burn psychological thriller about obsession, guilt, and the stories we tell to survive the unthinkable. For readers who loved My Dark Vanessa and We Need to Talk About Kevin, this haunting tale will stay with you long after the final page.
