Writing in American Songwriter, Hal Horowitz rated Beautiful Lie 3.5 out of 5 stars for being "a well-balanced set both vocally and musically", with "friskier tunes to offset the lost/fading love slower tracks".[1] In The Austin Chronicle, Doug Freeman gave this album 3.5 out of 5 stars, calling the music "some of their best genre work together" and ending "Austin's reigning country couple remain on a roll and are only getting better".[2] In No Depression, Matt Conner called this release "part textbook and part songbook" that "tips more than a hat to tradition while it adds plenty more to the catalog".[3] Steve Horowitz of PopMatters rated this work an 8 out of 10, summing up, "Beautiful Lie successfully captures the sound of the past, but as Robison demonstrates on his self-penned tunes, the past is more than a memory. It is part of who one is in the here and now. We learn from our experiences. Life may not be perfect, but it’s all that we have and deserves to be treasured."[4]
