This book quickly captured my heart. I don't have a sister, so reading about the relationship among these three siblings was enjoyable. I always love a good wedding story mixed with secrets. Outstanding book overall. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

I read a lot of thrillers and was looking for a 'palette cleanser' and wanted to read something lighter and not very intense. Lovers and Liars fit the bill perfectly.

It's a pleasant novel about three essentially estranged sisters who gather for the youngest's wedding. The books is split into sections with chapters from their three points of view. They're each dealing with their own relationship struggles and have the influence of their extremely toxic mother hanging over them.

Emma was by far my favorite character, though plots where one spouse has accrued a lot of debt stresses me out, it was a nice switch to have the woman be the one causing this problem.

Overall it was an enjoyable easy read where everything works out in the end. (Spoiler: but who locked the door??? Did I miss that? Why did that even need to happen if there wasn't an explanation?)

I’ve enjoyed all of Amanda Eyre Ward’s books and this one didn’t disappoint. Three sisters who have grown apart over the years come together for youngest sister Sylvie’s wedding (in a castle!) to wealthy Simon. This is Sylvie’s second marriage, as she was widowed a decade ago and has had a hard time letting go. Cleo is an attorney in New York and is trying to figure out what she wants out of her relationship and sister Emma, a stay at home mom, has gotten caught up in a pyramid scheme and is hiding a big secret from her husband.
A breezy read that touches on some deep subjects, I enjoyed this book. I wish it would have delved a little more deeply into the characters, but it flowed well and ended on a good note for all.

A cute book about three sisters and their relationship. Sylvie is about to get married in a castle and her sisters Emma and Cleo come to support her, but a few things need dealt with. This was a breezy read and I enjoyed it!

I’ve received an advanced copy through Netgalley, but all opinions are my own.

I really really loved this. It has everything-difficult family dynamics, grief, romance and one of my favorite things-a takedown of multilevel marketing schemes! Highly recommended!!
