Whose Secret is Bigger?

This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. An Heiress For The Bear by Pia Milan is Book 2 in the Sarkozy Brothers series. While the books have some resolution and could technically be read as stand alone, the read is enhanced by reading the books in series order. There are references to Book 1 (A Siren For The Bear - Carson and Marek's story) and some small spoilers and the underlying storyline is not resolved in book 2. This did not stop me from really enjoying Lukas and Katriona's story. A fast paced, quick read with lots of action, emotion and steamy sex scenes, you find yourself pulled in and at the end of the story before you know it (or want it to end)! This is a highly entertaining read that I recommend for anyone looking to escape for a couple of hours into a world of bear shifters and their search for... well that would be telling. Enough to say that the entertainment value comes from enjoying the read and not trying to overthink the storyline!

This honest and voluntary review was made possible by reading an advance copy.

Anne Boleyn is one of the most popular characters in historical fiction. Her story has been told so many times that it has crossed into legend. The Secret adds a new, interesting facet to the story, and one that I really enjoyed. At times shocking, sensual, and heartbreaking, it was a novel that captured my imagination.

The Secret is truly a life changer, for the better.  The power of positive, proactive, 'I have it now' thoughts begin and end my day in a great way. and  try to stay on task to believe during the day.  My convictions of 'what I want' have begun to happen.  I believe they will get bigger.  I can't thank Rhonda enough for writing this book, and my sister for introducing it to me.  I was ready!!  Can't wait to watch the movie!  EC

This book tells the story of a local odd character who ends up having wonderful, magical secrets to share. A new twist on the old addage, "Don't judge a book by its cover".

The review is my own opinion and done voluntarily.

Most of the time when someone has a secret, it ends up being a rather silly secret. Or still a good secret, but nothing major. Helena is different, she has a real secret. A secret that would make her an outcast. The ton is cruel yes, but yes her secret is not good for that time.

Yes this is book 2 but it reads well as a stand alone. Sebastian was jilted in book 1. Now the ton wonders what's wrong with him. As his father was mad, and his sister was left at the altar too. But he proves to be more than the dashing rogue here.

Like I said, Helena has a secret, more than one actually. And while dealing with that secret she meets Sebastian who starts to fall for her. While she holds back, she does not want a new husband.

I liked discovering what secrets she held and wondering if they would be all over town or not. And I enjoyed seeing her and Sebastian together.

Conclusion:
A lovely romance.

For thousands of years, wise men have warned about men like Mordeccai Young, men who set themselves up as pseudo Messiahs. With promises of peace, Young led a group of runaway girls into a life of slavery until the government stormed his hideaway. Unfortunately, the Feds could not rescue the girls who were Young's victims. In the siege, a killing fire killed them all, or so it was believed.
One girl escaped, taking with her the child her best friend bore Young. Sixteen years later, that girl, Jewel, now Julie, faces losing the daughter who became her own. A man threatens to expose her secrets, that she has Dawn illegally. Julie's nightmare only grows worse when she finds her blackmailer stabbed to death. The noose around her neck tightens when the murder weapon vanishes and a strange car begins following Dawn. Then, a faith healer comes to town, and Julie quickly realizes that Dawn's father lived through the fire. Only one other person knows the truth, the thorn in her side, her co anchor, Sean MacKenzie. Unknown to Julie, Sean has been haunted by the siege that changed her life for as long as she has. He was there, and could have stopped it, or at least saved a few of the girls. Helping Julie deal with her past will let him exorcise his own demons. Then, Julie and Dawn both vanish, and it is up to Sean to find them.
**** What does family really mean? Maggie Shayne answers that question in Thicker than Water. Love and devotion blend with suspense and secrets in this fast paced story. The reparte between Sean and Julie lightens an other wise deep read. Though Ms Shayne is noted for her paranormal fantasy, she is also capable of creating a world realistically believeable. ****

In The Confidential Man, Michael Embry has cranked out another page turner, his fourth, and it contains enough ironic twists to keep you wondering continuously---and avidly---about the next turn of events.  The best message in the book, though, might be in debating the limits of confidentially in certain compelling situations.  Some issues aren't so easy to resolve.

After reading "What Alice Forgot", I was hooked on Liane Moriarty. "What Alice Forgot" remains my favorite, but "The Husband's Secret" and "Big Little Lies" are both page turners.

"Big Little Lies" tells the story of 3 friends who are all going through something and aren't really sharing it. It is further proof that things aren't always what they seem and everyone has secrets, even your best friends.

Whenever a story uncovers part of the truth--behind the obvious... It requires support to have it read much more widely.  So, read!

IF YOU ONLY KNEW was a fascinating look at a young woman who has a life with a big secret.  When Elizabeth was in college, she accepted a ride from a stranger, and that one wrong choice changed her whole life.  The stranger ended up drugging her and raping her, and Elizabeth escapes with her life, but leaves behind a dead man.  When she discovers that she is preganant, she flees to the U.S. to have the baby and put here up for adoption.  Then, she goes back to the UK and pursues her law degree, attempting to get her life back on track and hiding the secret that is consuming her.  Elizabeth is a very sympathetic character; the reader can imagine what happened to her could happen to anyone and is drawn into the story as she makes one decision after another that affects her future and that of her family.  She is an excellent attorney who looks for ways to help others who cannot afford an attorney, with the thought always in her mind that she killed a man.  The plot is intricate with a lot of characters interacting with Elizabeth who have something to do with her past .  My least favorite character was her neighbor Ellen who is needy and whining and judgmental.  Aside from Elizabeth, I loved the character of Maya, Ellens adopted daughter who is seeking her birth mother and who is a typical teen who is extremely bright.  The reader will not be disappointed by this suspenseful tale of a secret that changes lives.
