The Other Woman A Novel by Sandie Jones published by St. Martin's Press. Sandie Jones you are amazing and I cannot tell you how much I loved this novel. Thank you to all parties for my arc I cannot wait to see what is next. Emily was content with life. Her job was going well and she had some great friends. She wasn't even looking for a boyfriend. But then she met Adam, the man of her dreams. What you as the reader feel is a whirlwind romance with the perfect man or that is what Sandie wants us to think. A few months into their relationship Emily feels self-conscious about why this wonderful man has yet to introduce her to his mother.... If you are anything like me the first thing that you are thinking is why not?? She is a great girl and Emily is an awesome character and you really feel for her. When he finally decides to introduce them poor Emily goes above and beyond to look perfect and the poor girl starts off on the wrong foot. On their way to meet his mother, Emily asks about his mother and he states that she's like any other mother, that she's a good woman. When Emily makes a rather innocent joke, Emily is shocked at how angry Adam gets. He feels her joke is disrespectful to his mother. They head on to visit his mom, Pammie. Some strange things happen during that first visit to his mother's house, but Emily chalks it all up to nerves and tells herself she's over analyzing things. 

But it's their next visit when Emily realizes that while Adam may be the man of her dreams, Emily is also in for a nightmare...and that nightmare is Adam's mother, Pammie. I have to be honest with you when I read this I was thinking Monster-in-Law meets a really good Lifetime movie. I don't want to give away the end but READ IT!!!!!!!
