The New Nanny

The Lies We Tell, Book 1

De: L.G. Davis

Narrado por: Kate Handford

A forged reference and a fake social media page is all it takes to convince the Mayers I’m the perfect person to look after their son Wyatt. Some people would be scared to move to a remote mountain village with a family they’ve never met, but it’s exactly where I need to be. Because Wyatt is my child....

My sweet little boy was taken from me. There are dark secrets in my past that will stop me from ever getting Wyatt back, but now that I’m his nanny, I’ll finally get to raise him like he’s my own.

When I arrive at the Mayers’ house, I’m stunned by the striking glass family home and Robin and Paul’s lavish lifestyle, which I couldn’t afford in my wildest dreams. But Wyatt seems troubled. Robin claims he needs therapy, she says he barely speaks to her, and soon I realize that he’s rarely allowed to leave the house....

When Wyatt gives me a shy smile and begins to open up, it’s clear he needed me just as much as I needed him. We’re making up for the time we lost with long afternoons playing games and baking apple pie.

Everything finally seems perfect in my life. Until I find out what happened to his last nanny....

Perfect for fans of The Marriage, The Housemaid, and The Family Upstairs.

finished in a day; worth a credit!

I really enjoyed this story. it kept me engaged where the last 3 books I've spent credits on still haven't been finished. I finished this in less than 24 hours. the twists were great, some unexpected, which is rare with how many books I listen to per week. the story leading up to some of those twists kept me listening and engaged. the narrator was great as well. I think this story deserves a lot more reviews than it has, which is what made me come back to write one, rather than just giving it 5 stars.

give it a try if you enjoy the mystery/suspense genre.
it's worth your credit!

Very underwhelming!

So many nanny books, so little time.

This thriller lacked thrills. It was predictable with waaay too many eye-rolling moments.

The narration was good but not great.

I will not be listening to "The Lies We Tell" Book 2.

Could have been good

They gave away every twist IN THE SUMMARY! Why would you do that? The plot described in the book description lays out things you’re not supposed to know. What on earth. Made for a very boring listen.
