A young woman marries the man she loves but has an anxiety about if she is doing the right thing or not. She has many unanswered questions in her head but goes ahead with the wedding anyway. Before her big day she has had many "accidents" which she has been unable to explain. Her grooms mother doesn't seem to care for her either and is always making comments that aren't truly nice. After the marriage things take on an even uglier appearance. She learns of secrets that change the way she sees her new family. Will she be able to keep such secrets or will someone kill her so they can do so?

After reading the synopsis of this story I was intrigued to read it. However I have to say it was not one of my favorite reads. While the story line is good, I found the writing very basic. A bit repetitive and a bit boring. The characters did not have much depth. Sorry

Sam and Dana are planning their wedding- but should the actions of her future Mother In Law be ringing huge warning bells. Certain events happen that start to concern her and her fiance's childhood friend seems to be too involved with her wedding plans.
It keeps you on your toes wondering what might happen next and whether there is an explanation for the things she starts to blame her mother in law for.
Lots of drama and intrigue- a fast paced read.

I did really enjoy this one! Read in 2 sittings.
Really fast paced, and a gripping plot to keep the reader engaged throughout. There were constant twists, and I loved the warning lines at the end of each chapter, although I felt at times they gave the reader a spoiler as to forthcoming events.
The characters were all fantastically written, and I loved how each of the characters were written so that at times the reader suspected everyone!
The ending was well-thought out, and whilst I did suspect what happened, I still enjoyed the reveal.
Perfect for thriller fans to curl up with on a lazy afternoon!

Dana and Sam have a whirlwind romance and plan to marry within six months. Everything seems perfect except for Dana's feeling of unease around Sam's mum Evelyn. A series fo events threatens to ruin the wedding but can her prospective mother in law really be trying to prevent the wedding...?
The Mother In Law is a domestic drama and psychological thriller set in the UK.
The prologue shows us a dramatic incident on Dana and Sam's wedding day before we go back in time to see how the relationship unfolded. The book is written from Dana's first person perspective. She is looking back at her romance with Sam and her relationship with his parents. She refers to mistakes she makes along the way, showing her perspective via hindsight.
Sam is an only child, living with his parents in his mid thirties. His mother Evelyn is quite overbearing but he sees it as caring rather than controlling. Dana struggles with snide and double edged comments from Evelyn and Tamara who is a childhood friend of Sam's but implies it could have been more.
It was tricky to work out if Dana is just being sensitive and insecure or whether she is in actual danger. I liked Dana's character and was desperate for Sam to stand up to his parents and put his fiancee first. The tension and drama develop over the course of the book and other family secrets or issues from the past are revealed.
The Mother In Law was an intriguing and enjoyable thriller that cleverly builds the tension.

The Mother in Law is such a haunting thriller. It follows Dana who is in love with a seemingly perfect guy named Sam. That is until she meets a nefarious mother in law named Evelyn. It’s a fun, predictable thriller for those who want a good beach read !

A gripping page turner that I couldn’t put down! Really enjoyed the twists and turns in this one as it played on the tensions that can exist in close family relationships. Thoroughly recommend! 5 stars

The dreaded mother-in-law! 😫

Dana is getting married to Sam and everything just seems too perfect. They agree to purchase a home before the wedding so they can immediately move in after the honeymoon. Sam currently is living at home with his parents even though hes in his mid/late thirties.

The house falls through as it coincidentally catches on fire. Things just start to fall apart from there. Accidents keep happening to Dana. She gets electrocuted, falls down the stairs and has a scaffolding fall on her! What is going on? Is it his obsessive mother? His docile father? Or, the childhood friend, Tamara. Someone is determined to get rid of Dana and away from Sam.

This book was pretty suspenseful and definitely had a twist towards the end. Keep me interested!

Wow what an amazing page turner of a book this is! Loved. Loved. Absolutely loved and thoroughly enjoyed this twisty, addictive, amazing book.

The Mother In Law – I really, really, really enjoyed this book! Half of the book is essentially Dana saying “I love him & he loves me” which may be annoying but it makes sense given her childhood. Throughout the whole book I really thought it was going to be two characters but there was a little twist and of course, it would be. I honestly thought after the “killer” was found there would be ANOTHER twist and this other person was actually the one that did it. I held my breath for the last 10 pages and was glad to see that he is actually a good guy. I really wanted to jump through the book and punch a few characters and defend Dana but I’m glad she finally found her voice and started pushing back on these people.

This was my first book by this author and I can guarantee it won’t be the last. The story is fast paced and you become invested in the characters. I was completely engaged in the story and looked forward to reading it on my phone before bed. If I didn’t adult responsibilities, this book would have been read in two days. I am now adding more of her books to my Goodreads TBR list.
Thank you Netgally for allowing me to read the ebook. It was awesome!

An easy to read, beach escape book! This was easy to read from the first page and it immediately piqued my interest. I enjoyed it overall but was left a little underwhelmed as I guessed the ending and found it a little repetitive in some places. Still worth a read, especially for a little escapism!

Absolutely loved this read and had a hard time putting it down, lots of twists and turns!

Dana stumbles upon a lovely man named Sam and they immediately click incredibly well which results into Sam proposing within 6 months, Danas apartment lease is about to run out and Sam is living with is parents in a beautiful mansion and invites her to stay with them until the couple can find their own dream home. Sam's mom is definitely overbearing with absolutely no boundaries whatsoever and is doing whatever she can for her precious son not to leave, even if that means doing some sabotaging dirty work.

Thankyou NetGalley for an early read in exchange for a fair and honest review.

4.5/5 stars rounded up 🌟

First of all, thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, & author for this ARC ✨I was honored to be given the opportunity to read this and give my honest thoughts about it.

This was definitely an entertaining popcorn thriller! It frustrated me sooo much, but in the most intriguing way possible lol. I couldn’t help but give 5 stars because it truly kept me going the entire time and was SUCH an easy read. I was constantly going back and forth wondering what the twists were going to be 😅 and I’ll admit, it definitely had me shocked with a few things. I do wish we could’ve received some sort of update on Dana’s friendship with Lynne, as it seemed kind to kind of fall off and not be brought up ever again. I would’ve liked to have seen if they still remained friends or not, though I do like to assume they had.

Overall, a great book filled with crazy family drama lol

This was an interesting, easy read. Naively written, but with a good storyline.
Dana has a whirlwind romance with handsome, rich Sam. Within six months they're planning their wedding. Being forced to move in with her future in-laws, Dana becomes the victim of regular accidents and feels that someone is trying to stop the wedding.
Sometimes I want to shake characters like Dana by the shoulders! How many times can someone allow things to happen or comments to be made without saying a word? However, this is fiction and an essential part of the storyline.
An enjoyable popcorn thriller.

A quick and easy read that I found myself picking up after a long day to unwind. The characters are beautifully written and I came to love them within the first few pages and was rooting for them all the way to the end. At times I wanted to stop reading because I just wanted the experience to go on for longer.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Just finished reading this, really fast paced and enjoyable. Some of the storylines were a bit basic, I mean the couple managed to buy and complete on a house move in about 5mins flat which is totally unrealistic! But the storyline was good and the suspense was there right to the end. I would definitely read more by this author xx

What a fantastic, thrilling page-turner of surprises! This is my first Karen King book and I couldn't put it down. The story of a couple who are head over heels in love, planning the wedding of their dreams - and then boom! Sideblinded by a Mother in Law who isn't happy!

I don't want to be give any spoilers away, but this book is tense, twisty and at times you almost forget to breathe.

I’m so glad that I like MY Mother-In-Law! The fast paced thriller follows Dana and her fiancé Sam. They are head over heels in love with each other. Dana meets his parents and at first they seem nice. But like with many things, appearances can be deceiving. Sam’s mom starts rubbing Dana the wrong way. It’s not okay to invite the beautiful neighbor over hoping she’ll date your son. Problem after problem arises and Dana begins to worry that she and Sam will never make it to the altar.
This is perfect for a beach read. I want to thank Bookouture and NetGalley for a complimentary copy of the book. The opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.
