Author Reveals Story of SC Woman Who Ran Scam Using Tyler Perry Lure

At first glance, Melissa Sprouse Browne’s “My Best Friend is a Liar: The Real Life Story of a World Class Con Artist” seems like a story of a woman cheated out of her man by her BFF. But thou shall not judge the book by its title, as it reveals an intriguing story.
 
“My Best Friend is a Liar” turns out to be a gripping true story of a female con woman whose desire for fame and wealth is unmatched even by the greediest politicians and celebrities. A search on Google will not reveal much about Sharon Johnson, a name shared by many, but a careful search will let readers know that she authored a memoir titled “The Struggle of Love” and she was ultimately convicted in federal court for conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Her co-conspirator, Patricia Sullivan, is the power behind the throne and committed heinous crimes with Sharon that shocked even a hardened United States Attorney.
 
Anyone who reads “My Best Friend is a Liar” will be appalled by the life of crime Johnson and Sullivan led. Sharon spun a web of lies about her alleged connections to celebrities, including American Idol Fantasia Barrino and Tyler Perry, her most used lure. Johnson created a false story about Perry purchasing the rights to her book, and many people fell for it, hook, line and sinker.
 
Browne’s “My Best Friend is a Liar: The Real Life Story of a World Class Con Artist” is one of the many books that will appear at the upcoming 2017 Book Expo America on June 1 to 3, 2017.
