Leah Cupps’ Sweet Little Lies is a gripping psychological thriller that delves into the dark secrets lurking beneath a seemingly perfect romance. The story follows Reese, a dedicated bakery owner whose whirlwind engagement to the charming and affluent Tucker quickly spirals into a nightmare. As anonymous threats surface, urging her to cancel the wedding, Reese is compelled to investigate Tucker’s mysterious past, particularly the unexplained disappearance of his ex-fiancée, Charlotte.  

Cupps crafts a narrative filled with suspense and unexpected twists. The tension escalates as Reese’s bakery is vandalized, and the anonymous messages become increasingly menacing. Readers are kept on edge, questioning the motives of each character and the true nature of Tucker’s intentions. The author’s ability to weave a tale of love, betrayal, and danger ensures that the story remains engaging throughout. 

While the novel excels in building suspense, i have noted areas where character development could be more nuanced. Reese’s decisions, at times, seem driven more by plot necessity than character consistency, and the dialogue occasionally lacks refinement. Nevertheless, the story’s compelling twists and the author’s storytelling prowess make it a worthwhile read for fans of the genre. 

In summary, Sweet Little Lies offers a thrilling exploration of trust and deception, making it a recommended read for those who enjoy psychological thrillers with a romantic twist.

Sweet Little Lies by Leah Cupps is a suspenseful and entertaining read with plenty of drama and intrigue. The plot keeps you engaged, and the secrets unravel at a good pace. The characters are interesting, though some could have been more deeply developed. While the twists are enjoyable, a few felt a bit predictable. Overall, a solid 3.5 stars—an engaging thriller with enough tension to keep you turning the pages.

This was a fantastic thriller. Twists, suspense, tension. The mystery was riveting. I . Right away, I was hooked with how odd this situation was, and things only increased, which had me on the edge of my seat.

Sweet Little Lies was everything I wanted from a thriller novel! There were plenty of twists and turns to keep me engaged.

I did think there were a few too many plot things going on, but that may have been what kept me from seeing where the novel was headed and keeping me on my toes. I will definitely be picking up another Leah Cupps novel after this first experience with her. The dialogue was very stream of consciousness which I think in this case worked for the plot and kept Reese a very relatable character in this book.

As the threats escalate and strange events unfold, Reese becomes consumed with uncovering the secrets of Tucker's past, particularly regarding his ex-fiancée, Charlotte, who vanished a year earlier.

This is a page-turner for anyone who loves a good mix of love, secrets, and danger.

3.75/5 ⭐️

Before Charlotte's chapters this was a 3 star book for me because it felt like Resse was just naive and I don't like that in book characters. But the moment Charlotte's chapters started it picked up and had so many turn that I was really invested.

I received an advance reader copy of Sweet Little Lies from NetGalley, and wow... what a ride! This was my first book by Leah Cupps. The beginning of the book felt a little slow, but once I got into the story, I was absolutely hooked. Just when I though I had things figured out, the twists kept on twisting, keeping me on the edge of my seat until the very end. I rated this book a 4.25 and cannot wait to read more from this author.

I really enjoyed this book. The story kept me interested the entire way through. Definitely a page turner that I just had to finish in one sitting. I thought I had it all figured out then the twists came that turned me all around. I was very satisfied with the ending. I look forward to reading more from this author for sure!

I loved this book! Set in a small town, in a small town bakery, a whirlwind romance reese seems to have a great life until the anonymous threats start just before her wedding, and her romance with tucker seems too good to be true especially when his ex fiancée had disappeared.
The book is a great read and a great little mystery. Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC copy in exchange for my honest review

Sweet Little Lies by Leah Cupps was a brilliant Psychological Thriller with lots of suspense that will have you turning your pages quickly to find out what happens next, which made it a quick fun and easy read just what I needed for my day off. I loved it and all the characters were excellent and worked well in this latest book by Leah.

I highly recommend Sweet Lies.

Big Thank you to NetGalley and Inkubator Books for my ARC.

For me this book was more about the twists than the plot itself. That does not make the twists stans out to me as much as a thriller with a good plot. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to review a digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is the second book I’ve read by this author (the first was One Last Bite which I rated 5 stars) although I preferred that story I did enjoy this one. There were a few ‘twists’ that I expected however all in all a good read and I would recommend

This was just a fun easy read and it took me away from the cold dark British winter. Yes I could work out how it was going to end but that didn't spoil the surprise and there were some decent twists in there to keep me fully entertained.

Will definitely be reading more by this author.

The setting and premise was really entertaining.

"Sweet Little Lies" was my introduction to Leah Cupps, and I was immediately intrigued by the premise. The pacing was one of the book's strongest suits, keeping me hooked from start to finish. Reese, the main character, was portrayed as a strong and determined FMC, and I appreciated her resilience throughout the story.

What stood out to me the most was the balance between tension and character depth. The mystery surrounding Tucker’s past and his ex-fiancée Charlotte added layers of intrigue, and the stakes felt real as the threats against Reese escalated.

That being said, I did find myself frustrated with Reese’s decision to meet with her ex behind her fiancé’s back. While it added complexity to her character, it detracted slightly from my enjoyment. Additionally, I was able to predict the ending about halfway through, but it didn’t take away from the overall suspense of the story.

Overall, this was a well-written thriller with engaging characters and a gripping plot. I’d recommend it to readers who enjoy fast-paced mysteries with plenty of twists. I look forward to exploring more from Leah Cupps in the future!

Sweet Little Lies is the second book I've read from Cupps, so I knew what to expect from her writing style.

It took me a while for me to become fully invested in the plot, but the further it unfolded it had me hooked and I found myself reading at breakneck speed to the big reveal to see if my theories were right...I wasn't!

The book is split into parts and narrated from multiple POV. Is has some great misleading twists and a cast of characters that I found myself questioning throughout; could I really rely on their narrative?

Suspense and tension fueled, Sweet Little Lies will have you scraping your jaw off the floor.

Sweet Little Lies starts slowly and rambles a bit, but it kept my interest enough to keep me going. The story unfolds nicely, and then came the shocker at the end. My eyes almost fell right out of their sockets.

I very much enjoyed Reese, the main character. She was strong enough to strive for what's right and relatable in her failures. I'm sure all of us know someone who shuts down any discussion of uncomfortable topics. I love that this wasn’t a story that relied on a trivial misunderstanding to drive the plot forward. I don't know that I would have made different decisions from Reese's, and her conflicting emotions and choices on who to trust felt completely believable.

Her fiance, Tucker, I didn't like much—really, at all. Something was just not right about him. You know that guy you don't really know, who seems fine—good, really—but whom you wouldn't encourage your cousin to date, let alone marry? He's that guy.

Although she took up relatively little space, I had much sympathy for Charlotte, Tucker's ex-fiancee, even though she was supposed to be a villain. Life seriously let her down.

Despite the book’s rambling moments and occasionally unrefined dialogue, this book does exactly what it's supposed to. Leah Cupps' storytelling is masterful. I still can't believe what I just read.
