The Mother-In-Law

Summary: Someone once told me that you have two families in your life – the one you are born into and the one you choose. Yes, you may get to choose your partner, but you don’t choose your mother-in-law. The cackling mercenaries of fate determine it all.

From the moment Lucy met Diana, she was kept at arm’s length. Diana is exquisitely polite, but Lucy knows, even after marrying Oliver, that they’ll never have the closeness she’d been hoping for.

But who could fault Diana? She was a pillar of the community, an advocate for social justice, the matriarch of a loving family. Lucy had wanted so much to please her new mother-in-law.

That was ten years ago. Now, Diana has been found dead, leaving a suicide note. But the autopsy reveals evidence of suffocation. And everyone in the family is hiding something…

From the bestselling author of The Family Next Door comes a new page-turner about that trickiest of relationships.

 

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

I have really enjoyed all of Sally’s books- but the last couple have been some of my faves. With the domestic drama angle she’s going for lately- I’m LOVING her books.

What I liked:

The cover. Well, actually both of the covers. The ARC was different and a bit darker and maybe even better. But this one is also good.

I loved how the story was told- hearing from both Diana and Lucy and seeing both of their viewpoints really added something.

The secrets. SO many. So good.

 

Bottom line: For me, this book was so enjoyable. Truly a great story with memorable characters. Put this on your MUST read list!
