Kurzbeschreibung

What do you get if you mix three beautiful women and their deepest secrets with too many lawyers, corporate executives and overzealous reporters?




THE SECRET KEEPING: Dr. Helaine Kristenson is the leading authority in the field of psychosexual relations and the bestselling author of the how-to bible, "Keeping Mr. Right." Professionally, she deals with secrets of the heart everyday. Privately, she even has a few of her own to keep her busy. What's so Top Secret? Her seven-year relationship with notorious super-model, Sharon Chambers--a once very hot union that lately has become something less than perfect. Wandering unwittingly into the middle of their tangled web is disillusioned investment strategist, Lydia Beaumont, a sleeping beauty who's just about to wake up. Add to the resulting fray a dozen lawyers, a handful of corporate executives and a gaggle of overzealous reporters, and you've got one highly public love triangle. And the more private a woman is, the more exposed she becomes...

Extraordinary writing! 7. Januar 2009
Von karenin
Format:Taschenbuch
A friend recommended that I read this book and I was immediately taken in by the stunning prose. This author has an extraordinary talent with words. Sometimes whole chapters almost resemble poems. That alone makes the book worthwhile.

So, what is the story? The main character is Lydia Beaumont. She slowly sinks into a depression while trying to cope with the split-up from her boyfriend (real asshole) and her meaningless job at a finance company. While Lydia more and more loses the grip on her life she starts to observe a woman who always sits by the window in Lydia's favourite cafe. She gets very curious about that woman and desperately wants to make her acquaintance. The woman in the window seat is Dr. Helaine Kristensen, a psychologist and successful author. How the two finally meet and what exciting and juicy things happen then I will leave to your imagination or the book to tell you.

Btw: This novel is the first in a series of three. However, you can also just read it on its own. The sequels are "Fortune is a Woman" and "The Stolen Kiss". But beware, the intermediate book is a cliffhanger, so if you read it you better get number three as well.

I Loved this Book! 1. Dezember 2006
Von Fiction_Fan - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
Witty, sexy, and well written, this novel is easily worth the investment of time and money. It was... dare I say... **smart.** And who doesn't love that? The crisp dialogue and evocative descriptive passages drew this reader in. Just be sure to start reading when you have plenty of free time because you won't want to put it down. Best of all, in a world of dull lesbian romance clones, this book was truly unique and the author displayed a voice that was all her own. I'm eagerly anticipating future works from Francine Saint Marie!

What wasn't so great? Not a lot. But here goes... The cover does this book a great injustice. It's so dark and dreary while the novel itself is anything but gloomy. Combine that with the book's ominous title and a book buyer is likely to get a very wrong impression. Ignore these things when purchasing.

The very start of the story moved a tad slow for my tastes. When it picks up steam, it REALLY moves. But a tiny bit of patience is required to get you there.

Finally, the characters have an odd habit of referring to each other by their first and last names. OFTEN. Hearing Lydia Beaumont a million times, instead of just Lydia, got old fast.

These quirks, however,are easily overlooked in the face of solid entertainment.

Overall - a great time!

T-N-T 21. Februar 2007
Von Donna Quintana - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
A friend of mine who is a very picky reader went crazy over this book and insisted that I read her copy. I'm glad I did. The first part seems like a bunch of random musings about Lydia and Helaine, two women who don't even know each other. Then their paths begin to converge and the seemingly unrelated pieces start to make sense.

Before I realized it, I was lulled into an intricate, fast-moving plot. Once the tension starts to build it continues to escalate until the very end. The descriptions of what the women are going through as the story unfolds are made more meaningful and are intensely felt because of the author's skill at defining their mental and emotional makeup at the beginning of the book. As I was flying through the last several pages, my muscles were actually tense. It's quite a reading experience. I returned my friend's book to her, but I've already ordered my own copy. I plan to read it again in a year or two.

Another reader mentioned that the cover doesn't relate very well to the story, and I want to second that. I don't see any connection at all between the cover and the book. In fact, I was put off by the cover and almost didn't read the book because of it. So if there is another printing, a different cover would be beneficial. Meanwhile, remember that "you can't tell a book by its cover."

Impressive Debut Author 18. Februar 2007
Von Cassie Coleman - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
The back cover calls this a "high stakes girl-gets-girl romance." That's an understatement, to say the least. Midway through the book you can see that what appears at first to be a slow start is actually a masterful job of character development. The author skillfully "peels the onion" to show the complexities of the protagonists. Then when things really start moving, you are totally invested in the outcome.

As the plot progresses through increasingly complicated twists and turns, the pace continuously increases. By about three quarters through I had reached the point where every few pages I would think, "I can't believe this is happening," then assimilate the latest turn of events, then read another few pages and do it all over again. Wow.

Although I don't usually go so nuts over an author (click on "see all my reviews" if you think I'm kidding), I honestly believe this one has the writing skills of a seasoned pro. I'm surprised that this is her first published book, and I eagerly await the next one.
