“No Little Lies” is a thrilling and action packed story filled with characters who are relatable and you grow attached to. Ryn and Beau live busy lives, Beau has a band and Ryn runs a women’s shelter while running away from her past. Her mother’s death haunts her as well as the death of a girl she knew in her childhood. She has amnesia and is unable to remember everything. On the other hand Molly lives with an abusive and violent husband. She wants to leave, but she can’t as she has loved ones she has to protect. I loved the alternating points of view from two different characters with different stories because it adds to the mystery. How are they connected? When will their stories interconnect? The mystery behind what happened to Ryn’s mother and the truth behind Ryn’s past is intriguing. The unraveling of the Ryn’s past is so interesting and satisfying. I love the ending as well, it was so much more than I imagined it was and the twist was amazing.

Ryn Davis is the adult child of a mother who was once a high-priced escort. She has spent years burying her past. As her way of coming to terms with her childhood, she has suffered long term, chronic insomnia. She has buried the past so deep, she has amnesia about most of her childhood.

Several things happen to Ryn. Out of the blue, a stranger calls her, claims that her mother was murdered 20 years ago. And then an old childhood friend emerges. Ryn doesn't remember this friend especially as lies and half truths are exposed.

Book Blurb: . A psychopath's ever-present memories drive him to exact revenge for Ryn's lies about the past. His terrifying game of cat and mouse pit him against her where she is most vulnerable.

She doesn't know who .. or what ... to believe. The only way to the truth is to tear down her own walls ... but can she do that while someone has her targeted?

Well written, the alternating points of view between characters are a real page turner. There are suspenseful surprises that start on the very first page and maintains that level until the final unexpected conclusion. Although 3rd in the series, this can be read as a stand alone, but I highly recommend reading in order to get all those little nuggets on gems that make the character of Ryn unique.

Many thanks to the author / BooksGoSocial / Netgalley for the digital copy of this psychological thriller. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

Different perspectives add complexity and a sense of almost doubt as the reader learns about the characters and their lives. Strong characters with fascinating back stories are introduced with enough detail to make the reader invested in their fate and the plot itself is well paced and interesting.
