Many thanks to netgalley, the author and the publisher for approving my request to read this book.
I enjoyed this taut psychological thriller which is jam packed with twists that are guaranteed to keep you on your toes!
This is the first book I have read by this particular author and I thought it was very well written and I loved the tangled web that was woven throughout the story and I look forward to more from this author.

This was a fun page-turner with good twists! I thoroughly enjoyed it. I look forward to reading more from this author!

This was such an interesting story with characters that are manipulative, hiding secrets and lies that change the trajectory of their lives. The first 40% of this book was good but the last 60% was amazing! I really enjoyed how the story tried throwing off the readers by having multiple characters look like the bad guy by having incriminating evidence about them. Everett’s secret was so shocking but it made so much sense once it was reveled! It was nice to see Jo’s parenting style evolve towards the end of the story.
Minus one star since I personally found it easy to predict who was responsible for Eden’s disappearance.
My favorite characters were Jo and Eden.
My least favorite characters were Everett and Ivy.
Thank you so much to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for na honest review.

This was the first book I have read by Danielle Stewart but I am willing to give her other books a try after reading this one. This book was suspenseful but I did feel like there was just something missing about it. I enjoyed the twists but they were just delivered with such lackluster that I just was left feeling like it was lacking. All in all it was 3 stars for me.

Jo and Everett have the perfect marriage and family, until they welcome an exchange student into their home. everything is put into jepordy.

Great plot with rather irritating characters.
Something a bit different here. We don't find out until the end what Jo is hiding and it isn't anything obvious.
Really enjoyed this drama and i finished it way to quickly.
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

I really enjoyed Three Little Lies by Danielle Stewart. Jo and Everett's perfect kids, marriage, family, and life are all put into jeopardy when they welcome an exchange student into their home. This girl's secrets and subsequent disappearance will have readers on the edge of their seats. This is a book you won't want to put down.

5 STARS!! I loved this book. Absolutely riveting. The plot was great! I have already recommended a few people to read this once it becomes available. Thank you for the ARC!!

This was a slow burn for the first third of the book, when it finally took off. From there, it kept me engaged and I finished this very quickly. Unfortunately, I figured out the twist well before it was actually revealed, which is disappointing. I really felt for Eden, as she was truly pulled in 2 opposite directions, and Jo, as she struggled with the aftermath of a decision from her past.

This one is a fast, fun, twisty read. Starts quick and doesn’t let up. No lulls in this one!
When I first started this book, honestly I figured it was rather like plenty of others I had read. Somewhat typical, I would blow through it, still fun but y’know… predictable. The switch ups from that format were enjoyable and so appreciated!
The only thing I was right about in my original assessment was that I blew through it. But that’s because I wanted to know what was happening. My sleep suffered but I have no regrets.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the advance copy in return for an honest review.

Jo and Everett used to have a good life together but just lately the stresses of life, work and relationships have taken their toll.
They take in Eden, an exchange student and their life goes from simmering angst to all out chaos.
I loved this book. It reads like a TV drama and the twists are fabulous. I loved the plot and how the story came together and the finally feww chapters were sublime.
Foe me.. a one sit read I couldn't put down

Three Little Lies by Danielle Stewart
This book was so addicting! I didn’t want to put it down. So many twists throughout the book. My heart was racing the entire time.
Jo and Everett are married with two children. Everett is always working and Jo is always taking care of the kids, a true helicopter parent. As much as Jo gives me anxiety, her husband Is the absolute worst!! When Eden, an exchange student comes to live with them, things start out great but they bad quickly. Eden seems to be up to no good. So many twists that I didn’t see coming! Just when I thought the story was going one way, it went a totally different way! I was shocked by the ending!! I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. I would say for most of the book, I wasn’t a fan of Eden but toward the end, I felt bad for her, her mother wasn’t the best.!
I loved the writing style of this book. It was a quick read and I loved it! I can’t remember the last time I read a book so quickly. If you are looking for a suspense filled thriller, I’d recommend this book!
Thank you so much NetGalley, Bookouture and Danielle Stewart for the E-ARC!

Review will be posted on @thehomebodybooknook on instagram!

Super fun page turning thriller with all the secrets of suburbia: righteous, petulant, and scheming paired with rags to riches damnation!
Summary: Overly anxious, helicopter suburban mom, Jo, takes in an exchange student before clearing it with her husband. She thinks it will be a bandaid to the tween angst and trying relationship with her 12 year old daughter Megan. Unfortunately, it isn’t, and the pairing seems to make things worse, and for Jo, that means danger.
Good twists, a bit to saccharine of an ending for my taste, but it was a page turner and can be read in a day! This book is every bit of insecurity that moms feel daily, even if they aren’t nearly as panicky and overwrought as the protagonist. Every snarky put-out mom comment hit home and makes the reader feel like they are under the microscope too. It’s like the author trolled instagram and TikTok for every nagging, destructive, and overbearing motherly trope; and I’m here for it! I can’t tell if this story is gonna make moms feel validated, triggered, or self reflective, and if moms/wives don’t see themselves in this, in some way, they aren’t looking close enough.
Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

"Gripping and unputdownable" is right! This book had its hook in me from start to finish. I read it all in one sitting because I simply couldn't put it down!
Jo is an uber-anxious (relatable!) super mom of a difficult tweenager and a son with severe allergies. She takes on the additional challenge of Eden, a foreign exchange student from England. Living with Eden goes from seemingly stellar to quickly questionable. Then Jo's husband, a wealthy tech exec, starts behaving suspiciously as well. When the cops show up at Jo's house, all bets are off!
If you love a good domestic thriller with multiple twists and turns, Three Little Lies does not disappoint!

I knew this was going to be a killer thriller from the first page, and I wasn't wrong! I really loved this novel, it's fast paced but with really well rounded characters. As a mother I really felt for Jo, triyng to hold it all together. I didn't want this to end, it's that good!

Three Little Lies by Danielle Stewart is a suspense-filled, psychological thriller that grips you from the very first page and doesn’t let go until the final twist. The book starts with a seemingly small lie, but as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that the web of deception has far-reaching consequences for everyone involved.
Jo, the protagonist, is a mother trying to balance her family’s needs while dealing with her own anxieties. Her seemingly perfect life begins to unravel when she and her husband, Everett, invite a foreign exchange student, Eden, into their home. Eden, with her mysterious past, seems to bring chaos and secrets with her, setting the stage for a series of lies that will shake Jo’s world to its core. Each lie intensifies the drama, leading to a shocking conclusion that I certainly didn’t see coming!
What makes this book so captivating is how relatable the characters are. Jo’s internal struggle with parenting, anxiety, and her relationships with her children pulls you in. You feel her fear, her love, and her desperation as she tries to hold everything together. The interactions between Jo, her rebellious daughter Megan, and Eden are full of tension and emotion, making it hard not to be drawn into their lives.
The plot is fast-paced, and just when you think you know where it’s going, a new twist comes along to turn everything upside down. The mystery surrounding Eden’s true intentions keeps you guessing, and the lies that stack up make the stakes higher with each chapter. The final twist was one that I never saw coming, and it left me stunned.
This book is perfect for fans of domestic thrillers, family dramas, and twisty mysteries. It's a rollercoaster ride of emotions, and if you’re looking for a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat, Three Little Lies is definitely one to pick up. I couldn't put it down until I finished it, and I highly recommend it for anyone who loves a good, unpredictable thriller with complex characters and plenty of drama.

As someone who loves thrillers, this book is a must-read! There were so many twists and turns that I wasn't expecting and I couldn't put it down. Definitely planning to read this again when it's officially published and I'm going to recommend it to all of my bookish friends!

Thank you for letting me read this title in advance. It was a great book. I have already sent it to all of my friends to get them to be on the lookout for it.

Get ready for a whirlwind of scandal, family drama, lies, and shocking twists in this book! Just when I thought I had it all figured out, the ending completely flipped and took me completely by surprise in a good way The characters were so relatable that I was literally shouting at my e-reader, questioning their choices, LOL. I highly recommend this book… What a fantastic way to kick off my reading in 2025!
Thank you @Netgalley and @Bookouture for allowing me to review this ARC.

This book had all the best features in a thriller: family drama, lies, and scandals and it kept the twists coming. The beginning was a bit of a slow burn and led me to think I would have it figured out, but I definitely did not. I must admit I didn’t really care for Jo, the helicopter, anxiety ridden mother at the beginning of the book, but as the story progressed and twists kept coming she was redeemed a bit in my eyes.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for an ARC in exchange for my honest review
