With every twist and turn your really can’t book the book down what drew me to this book was the fact that my relationship with my mil was not the best but this make it seem like a beautiful love story didn’t get to finish because of download issue so I’m hoping to get a new copy to finish

This story was all right…. It bounced between the points of view of the three characters..the mother was diabolical, had no sympathy for the son, and a bit of a twist at the end.

This is a new author for me and I am so pleased to be approved for this ARC.. It is a gripping tale with a really evil character. Nicely tied up at the end and this is a book I will definitely recommend. Five stars from me

This is the first book that I have read by this author, I'll certainly be keeping my eye out for more in the future. I was totally hooked. Compelling characters and a whole list of obsessions.
Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book

First, I want to thank JA Andrews and Rachel’s Random Resources for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

DANG!!!! I wouldn’t wish this Mother In Law on even my worst enemy!!! She is pure EVIL!!! JA Andrews is back and better than ever with his 6th psychological thriller His Mother’s Lies!! I have been a HUGE fan of his since his first book Mummy Boy and I can firmly say this is his best work to date!!! This is a definite must read, go out and buy, and put it to the top of your TBR list as it is a 5 star read!

In my career of book reviewing I don’t think a character has pissed me off as much as Anna did! She is truly a sick, twisted, mentally ill woman with major issues!! The way she treated Charlotte was so wrong on so many levels! How Ethan couldn’t see how deranged she truly was is beyond me!

There were many in-depth, intense, tensionful and suspenseful scenes that had me literally biting my already short nails! His Mother’s Lies were jam packed with unthinkable acts, secrets, lies and omg the revelations at the climax of the book were unimaginable!!!

JA Andrews deals with some heavy topics that I will be honest was hard to read on a Mother’s Day Weekend as it will pull hard on your heartstrings!

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate JA Andrews and his partner Gary Mullen for getting married! I’m incredibly happy for the two of you-and pray your Mom In Law’s are NOTHING like Anna!

Solid 3.5. Having lived through a crazy mother-in-law (who is thankfully an ex mother-in-law!), the premise of His Mothers Lies drew me in. And overall this book did not disappoint. It was a bit slow to start and a little repetitive but picked up quickly. I will say that none of the three main characters were particularly likable but Anna took the cake! The manipulation was crazy!! Overall good read.

A tension filled physcological thriller that has a surprise ending. Ethan is Anna's little boy and she doesn't want to let him go. When he falls in love with Charlotte and marries her Anna is devestated to say the least and she will stop at nothing to get her boy back. Talk about mother in law from hell nothing will compare to Anna! I could literally feel the suspense and tension leaking through my kindle while reading this book. It's unlike anything I've read before. I kept trying to guess what Anna would do next and every time I was wrong and it was always worse than what I imagined. The ending really hit me hard as I was not at all expecting it. A gripping physcological thriller that I loved and I think all physcological thriller lovers will enjoy!

Ethan’s mother, Anna is a vindictive and manipulative woman who will stop at nothing to have her precious boy to herself and she really does pull out all the stops!

Great premise, but under developed and unlikeable characters prevented this from being the brilliant book it has the potential to be.

I felt that Charlotte should be a kickass, strong and driven woman, but she comes across as weak and whiny, with career driven young hotshot Ethan, acting like a spineless and naive teenager.

I find it hard to believe that Charlotte didn’t have concerns about his mother before her wedding to Ethan.

I guessed a fair bit of what was going on, but the big revelation close to the end was a jaw-dropper and that’s what earned it an extra star ⭐️

3 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, the author and the publisher for an ARC in return for an honest review.

Who does not love a Mother-in-Law from Hades story? I had one, so I know what that is like! I also LOVE the movie Hush, which has a mother-in-law that can just not let go of her son. Anna was complete nut, and honestly, possibly the evilest. Except for maybe my own. This was a great novel full of twists and turns with an amazing end. I highly recommend this to anyone who thinks their mother-in-law is bad. It could always be worse.

Thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Sometimes the nicest of people have a sinister side to them...

My god, I feel so sorry for anyone who actually does end up with a mother in law like Anna, what an absolute bitch she was, so hellbent on destroying her son's happiness so she could have him all to herself.

I shamelessly devoured this in less than a couple of hours, I found myself so engrossed with Anna, her deviousness and her. duplicitous behaviour. I found myself shouting at the book and wanting to shake Ethan to wake up so many times, how could he not see through her?

His Mother's Lies is suspenseful, compelling and has a plot twist I didn't see coming.

QOTD: What would you do if your mother was like this?

Many thanks to Rachel's Random Resources for my tour spot.

Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐

His Mother's Lies by J A Andrews.
Charlotte’s dream wedding to Ethan was the happiest day of her life. She knew his mother, Anna, loved her only son, but her overbearing nature starts driving Charlotte insane. Ethan always claimed his mother accepted her as part of the family, but her gut instincts couldn’t be wrong..
Omg what a read. I devoured this book. I really didn't like Anna. I did like Charlotte. I felt for Ethan as I thought he was caught between his mum and wife. Spectacular read. 5*.

Thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the ARC of His Mother’s Lies.

I really enjoyed this read.

It’s a psychological thriller told from the perspectives of Anna (the mother in law), Ethan (the son) and Charlotte (the daughter in law).

The mother in law is truly demented! From the moment Ethan meets Charlotte she is set on making sure things won’t work out and completing her aim to get her son back. She’s jealous of his relationship with Charlotte and cannot bear it that he has grown up and left and that their relationship is not the same as it once was. It has twists and turns and I didn’t guess the big family secret at the end either.

Would definitely recommend.

His Mother's Lies is a great read. It is a creepy tale of a Mother in Law who will stop at nothing to keep her adult son in her clutches. There are plenty of twists and turns and a truly shocking ending. I loved it!

Thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for my ARC.

This is a real page turner of a book. It showed each characters thoughts and plans from their own perspective. The characters were totally believable and an exciting read. 5*

Where do I start with this delightful book? Do I start with the world's worst threesome, a mother-in-law? Or just tell you how incredible this writer is at hooking you in and making you want to continue to keep reading? Well, let's start with the good, shall we?

The plot of the book is simple. What if your mother is so evil, that she obsesses over you and your life to get you back home? Well, this mother, Anna, is as evil as they come. She even goes as far to call her son on his wedding day to ruin the best part of the wedding, the consummation. This mother is hell bent on ruining her daughter-in-laws relationship with her son so much that she may even kill to get what she wants or make up another crazy lie.

I am going to be fully honest with you. This might be the best book of this year, so far. The way the writer gets into the head of all three main characters and intertwines the story from their points of view is a treat to read. Jumping from one chapter to another as a different character can be easy for an author to lose focus, but not this writer. The way they are able to jump from one person to the next is a testament to just how good they are at writing.

If any new writer out there wants to learn how to write clever hooks at the end of each chapter to make sure the reader keeps going, should study this book. It was such a masterpiece to read that I could not put it down. for a breather. The writer should be very proud of this piece of art that they have created and future they have in writing.

Get out there and get this book on May 15th 2023, you will not be let down by this choice and hey, maybe you will learn that your mother or mother-in-law is just as evil. Thank you for the wonderful read.

Ethan has found the girl of his dreams in Charlotte, much to the dismay of his mother Anna Cox. Anna is a monster-in-law for sure. From the day of the wedding forward. Oh, she puts on a good show for everyone, but the daughter in law. But how far will she go to get 'her little boy' back" I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

Tension and suspicion at it's finest! when Ethan marries the love of his life Charlotte and they have to move in with his mother, Anna, for a few months, fireworks are inevitable. But who is to blame, the crazy mother-in-law or the possessive new wife? How far will each of them go to keep the man they love to themselves? I enjoyed this book and was kept guessing through the majority of the book as to who was the unhinged character. I did find some of characters dialogue a little forced and unrealistic at times but this did not distract too much from the gripping plot.

I was engrossed in about 2/3 of this book and was ultimately let down by the ending. I enjoyed this type of domestic thriller vs the typical husband and wife “they aren’t who I married” which seems a bit overdone but think the ending was overall unrealistic. It was way too rushed and really tainted the whole book for me

This was one of those books that I was sorry to finish. It was a good read and full of suspense. I always have a fascination with novels about family relationships and dynamics. Especially the relationship between a mother, son and daughter in law. This one didn't disappoint.

OMG. What a book. This story drew me in from the very first sentence. First of all, I like stories where each of the main characters has their voice and their piece of story to tell. Here I found it and in a master form. In short, this book talks about family and relationships, their ties and connections. Here is a young couple, Charlotte and Ethan, looking to save money for their home. To do this, they decide to live in Ethan's family home with his mother, Anna. However, it soon turns out that both women cannot exist together in one space. What fascinated me the most and terrified me was the author's excellent knowledge of human behaviour. It was truly fascinating.
