After her first novel, LA Candy earned a spot on the New York Times bestseller list, her second book, Sweet Little Lies has delivered as well, making its way to the list this week.

Lauren said in a statement to People:

"It's so gratifying for my second book to be so successful and it was so fun to write! The characters were already developed so I really enjoyed the process so much more this time around."
