Fabulous read with lots of twists and turns and emotion. Once started I couldn't stop until the very end!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for this ARC!

I didn't like the ending. It was rushed and some parts of this book are not how reality would be like. I had high expectations about this book, specially because of the TTC subject that hits home but this wasn't what I expected. I did enjoy the beginning and but this book doesn't have a twist or any wow factor. I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review

I’d like to thank Bookouture and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read ‘Every Little Lie’ by Lesley Sanderson in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Anna has a life many would desire with her handsome husband Seb, a beautiful four-year-old daughter Evie, an enviable position in her community including the organisation of the neighbourhood watch. Yet her life begins to come apart when she receives phone calls from a woman telling her that she’s going to destroy Anna’s life just as she’s destroyed hers. Then she gets reports of an unknown woman loitering outside her house. Could Anna’s life start to unravel and with it the secret she’s been keeping even from Seb?

‘Every Little Lie’ is an enjoyable thriller that’s kept me gripped from page one. There’s lots of intrigue and twists and turns, but the suspense increases as the story progresses and the secrets that Anna and also Seb have kept hidden from each other start to emerge, although I didn’t find it difficult to work them out early on. The chapters alternate between Anna, Seb and Josie and help with the flow of the story by giving more background to the characters. When I got closer to the end the final chapter had a conclusion that was surprising and I hadn’t been expecting and I had to read it twice in case I’d misread. This is the fourth novel I’ve read by this author and think that this is probably one of her best and I’m happy to recommend it.

I really enjoyed this book and finished it quickly as I didn't want to put it down.

The story is based around the disappearance of a little girl, but the secrets and lies behind closed doors are what drives this intriguing, emotionally charged thriller.

The underlying uneasiness is there from the beginning and rapidly builds as the story unfolds.

The characters are well written, especially little Evie. I found it easy to empathise with Anna and, despite her faults and secretiveness, her overwhelming love for Evie shines through.

I did have an idea about what may have happened, but in no way did this spoil my enjoyment of this compelling psychological thriller.

I recommend this and will certainly be looking to read more of Lesley Sanderson's books.

Thanks to publishers Bookouture and Net Galley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I was lucky to receive an advance copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review and opinion. I felt this book had everything you would expect in a psychological thriller-- surprises that you don't see coming, secrets and lies and lots of intrigue to hook your attention! Loved everything about this book and can't wait to read more by this author!

I received this arc through netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

We meet Anna and her husband Seb. Anna seems like the perfect yummy mummy, organising school events and never letting her daughter be bored or unhappyfor one minute.

Anna has a secret though that she doesnt want to come out and as the book unfolds we find out Seb also has one too. The secrets eventually come out with all sorts of consequences.

Anna has a perfect life, she has a husband who adores her, a beautiful and well behaved daughter, Evie, and a lovely house. She is able to work from home, so she can always collect Evie from school. Anna's suffered miscarriages in the past and Evie is her miracle baby. She will do anything to protect her daughter. Seb is running his own business, which seems to be doing well, and he is Evie's stepdad. However, he has been in Evie's life since she was a toddler and he loves her as if she was his own child.
Their peace is shattered when they start receiving menacing and threating phone calls. What's even more peculiar is the fact that the caller is a woman. Soon, the caller is taking more dangerous steps; Evie notices a woman watching her when she is at the school's playground, and neighbours spot a strange car parked on their street. Then, a woman posing to be Evie's aunt unsuccessfully tries to pick her up earlier from school. The trouble is, Evie doesn't have an aunt...
Anna becomes more anxious with every phone call. She also spots the strange woman parked close to their house. Her attempts to confront her go futile, as the woman drives away. One day at the school fair, Anna notices the strange woman arguing with her husband, Seb. Does he know this woman? Why would he know her? Who is she?
It appears that Seb is hiding a secret. However, nothing prepares the reader for the secret that Anna is harbouring... It appears that their marriage is built on lies. When Evie is missing, despite their differences, the couple must pull together to save their daughter's life. Evie is in great danger.
I loved this story, I was hooked from the very first page. Seb's secret was pretty straightforward to work out, however, Anna's left me speechless. I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who likes a good psychological thriller. You will not be disappointed.

Firstly a big thank you to the publishers for my copy to review on netgalley. I’ve read a few of her other books and really enjoyed them.

This is a action packed psychological thriller full of suspense and tension.

Unpredictable and will have you racing through to find out the truth .

Complex characters all with their own secrets to hide.

I really enjoyed this twisty tale of revenge, family,lies and parenthood.

Published 27th October

My one goal in life was to be a mother - to have a family - and in my little curly-haired Evie, my husband and I got everything I ever wanted. He and I trusted each other completely. there was only one thing Seb didn't know about me - and if he ever found out, that would be the end of our life together. Then the calls started. "You destroyed my life. Now I'm going to destroy yours." I hoped it was a prank. Then I was terrified that the person who knew my secret had found me.

The past always finds a way to to catch up with you and Anna fears her past is just about to do that. Anna and Seb have a daughter Evie, but Seb is her stepdad. Someone has abducted Evie. Seb and Anna both have secrets.

The story is told from Seb, Anna. Josie and Evie's perspectives. Every character has something to hide. The secrets are gradually revealed. Someone has been watching Seb and Anna. and they're ready to make them pay for every little lie. The pace is slow to begin with but by the middle the pace is steady. I loved the ending to the book.

I would like to thank #NetGalley #Bookouture and the author #LesleySanderson for my ARC of #EveryLittleLie in exchange for an honest review.

This ARC was provided to me via Kindle by Bookouture and #NetGalley for my honest opinion.

Every Little Lie kept me on the edge of my seat and guessing until the very end.

I really enjoyed this book. It wasn't a typical story, and I couldn't tell how it was going to end, which was great.

I recommend you stick with this until the end if you enjoy thrillers that keep you guessing.

Revelation after revelation this books keeps you on your toes! I couldn’t put this down. Brilliantly written you can feel the emotions jump off the page at you.

Rarely am I taken back by plots I read, but Every Little Lie has several plot zingers that knocked me aside. At the center is a little girl who is loved, but who is threatening her mother Anna? Seb, the father, has some shady secrets of his own. The big shocker to me came halfway through the book. I actually spoke out loud “No way!” Sanderson had completely turned the story on its axis for me. I read faster to see how it all turned out. Little lies are sometimes harmless, but there are some huge whopping lies in this book. Read it and discover the truth.

The past has a way of catching up with you lies can't stay hidden forever! A picture perfect family but not everything is as it seems.

This one starts a little slow but as the layers are peeled back the pace starts to increase adding to the drama of the story and its dramatic conclusion.

A domestic thriller/drama full of deceit, tense, deception and devastation.

I enjoyed every minute of Every Little Lie, I was drawn in by the story from the beginning, I highly recommend it.

Thanks to Netgalley and Pulisher for giving me the opportunity to read Every little lie. Good Mystery book, kept me interested. I loved the beginning of the book when we find out there are secrets but we don't know what they are, that kept me reading. Should be a warning about infertility and loss of pregnancy. I wanted a little more out of the confrontation at the end, i felt like more could have been added in there. Good book overall.

This was just an average thriller for me. One of twists was interesting but the rest just seemed like a normal domestic thriller. I enjoyed it though, just wasn't necessarily a page turner for me

Anna and Seb live a nice life together with their little daughter Evie. Some would say they have the perfect life and they would both do everything they can to keep it that way. Everything seems perfect for the 3 of them however both Anna and Seb have hidden secrets and lies which could destroy their lives forever. Then one day Anna receives a phone call from a woman, one line “you destroyed my life now I’m going to destroy yours”. These words make Anna feel sick to the stomach. Someone knows what she has done. When she confides in Seb he seems to think the threats are aimed at him rather than his wife and that someone knows what he has done.

With these calls and threats becoming more and more regular and a strange woman turning up at Evie’s school soon Anna and Seb both realise they have to come clean to one another but will their relationship be strong enough to survive these secrets and who is holding onto to the darkest of them. Going to the police about their situation isn’t an option; the only people Anna and Seb can rely on to fix this is each other.

I did enjoy every little lie however at times I found the pace was a little slow for my liking and I did think the story line was very predictable all the way through but that being said I still found this book really easy to read and I did enjoy it and I did read it within a day it’s the sort of thriller book you could easily keep up with if you’re trying to fit reading in round a hectic life style 🙂

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an open and honest review.

I have only two words to say about this book "absolutely brilliant" a fantastic storyline, great author and I couldn't put the book down.

I always know I am going to enjoy books from this author, she never lets me down a fantastic page turner, full of twists and turns I just cannot speak highly enough and the characters were all great.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for allowing me to read this brilliantly addictive book. Five + stars from me.

Seb hadn't believed in love at first sight until he met Anna. Anna fiercely independent and protective single mom. He was charmed by the baby, Evie. He was there to see her grow, and rarely qualified his title of father with the word 'step'. He loved her as if she were his own.

Anna's perfect life is about to be destroyed when he caught Seb swayed by another woman at the same time Evie get kidnapped.

I was wondering how is this going to end but rather taken aback and a bit disappointed.

My rating : 3.5 ⭐ ❤

Thanks to @netgalley and Bookouture for providing a digital copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
