The white-washed Italian villa is perfect. I thought it might feel odd, living in a stranger’s house for the summer, but as my husband and children swim in the infinity pool, I start to relax. And then, in the back of a wardrobe, I find something that shatters everything.... Sparkling green eyes, square jaw, lopsided smile. A young man with his arm around a beautiful woman. The picture is old and faded, but I’d recognize him anywhere. The man is my husband.

Not Everything gets a ribbon or bow...
Norma Hinkens is rapidly becoming one of my favorite psychological thriller authors. The Lies She Told is one of those stories that has you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out who the “bad guy” is, and once you think you have them identified, you are suddenly presented with clues that lead you in other directions. In this book's case, just when you think you have it all figured out and the story is resolved in your mind – a new twist leaves you reeling. Brittany Goodwin’s narration takes this excellent story to another level.

Good but predictable
I chose to listen to this book after receiving a free audio copy from the author. All opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased.
Haley is being stalked, and she’s pretty sure it has to do with something she and her friends did in high school. She’s scared and determined to find out who the stalker is. Unfortunately, I had it figured out from the beginning, and I was a little disappointed in the ending.
The narrator is pretty good. She doesn’t have a voice for each person, but she changes it when men are talking, which is helpful. Her timing and pacing are good.
The Lies She Told is a suspenseful thriller that you’ll enjoy if you don’t mind predictable.

Amazing collaborative blend of author and narrator
WOW! The Lies She Told A Psychological Suspense Thriller, my fourth amazing read from author N.L. Hinkens, my second in a row today. After reading/listening to The Other Woman, I followed with this book. I enjoyed the outstanding Hitchcockian suspense story-line with its intricately woven twists and turns. Norma (N.L.) Hinkens is on my radar of great authors! I was given an Audible copy of this book back in April and am just now getting around to voluntarily reading & reviewing it. Narrator Brittany Goodwin's wonderful narration adds to the book's enjoyment. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Gripping Listen!!!
The Lies She Told by N.L. Hinkens is a gripping listen. The premise of high school bullying consequences, revenge and guilt provide the perfect background for this book. Hailey is a victim of stalking in this book, with questions of who to trust. There is edge of the seat suspense, numerous suspects, and well developed characters. The book moves at a fast pace. Brittany Goodwin was excellent in her performance. She added the right emotions for the tension in this book. Her pace of delivery was perfect. I was very surprised by the ending of this book. I loved it!
