Secrets: Book One by T.M. Payne is an amazing story that I have had the privilege to read. This is book number one in this amazing start to a brand new series writen by a brand new author for me to read. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about paranormal romances.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
She makes a clear statement that love comes to all. What you do with that love is in your hands, plus the one you love! This story is about reaching out to those who you love. It moved me to tears and that is hard to do now days. This is a very moving, steady story that will leave you understanding so much while desiring more of the story!
Well done as a Indie author first Paranormal book! Acceptable for any age from 14+ years not just YA!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND MUST READ!!
This is a short but very compelling story about acceptance and unconditional love. These twin brothers were able to stand united in each other’s choices and reassure the others because they were raised in that kind of home environment…. there’s a lesson here for those with an open mind and heart. Teach your children acceptance so they will teach their own, and so on…
No one should be forced to suffer in silence because of a life choice.
What a wonderful, first, short story for a brand new Indie author! “Secrets” is a PNR must read, revolving around a sensitive subject for all ages & suitable for YA & teen readers 15+ to adults, no matter your usual preferred reading genre! What a touching storyline that addresses serious, real life situations that can affect any age. This grabbed me from the start & kept me turning pages to find out how it would end, so I actually read it all in one sitting! With interesting characters & some suspense, it kept me engaged, and then left me wanting more at the end! … Even tho I volunteered to read this story, these are my honest feelings without any outside influences & I do highly recommend this to all readers. I can’t wait to see what Ms. Payne comes up with next 🙂
4 friends and a secret that tore a family apart and brought another family together. I loved this short novella.
I am leaving this review on my own for this book.
3 1/2 stars
Book one is like a very quick prequel introducing the characters and more importantly the issues involved in the story. These issues are extremely sensitive and important and are handled well I feel.
Book two jumps forward in time but tracks back to fill in the background story. We get to know Salem and Bella much better in this book. Salem is a natural born alpha who is very protective, caring, loyal and supportive. Bella is softer and less confident, it’s great to see her confidence grow as the story progresses.
Book three sees a lot of action of a couple of different sorts! There is a threat by some rogue wolf shifters as well as true mating and bonding sessions for both couples. Both were written well and were extremely hot too.
Book four is a truly joyous book, actually double the joy. I am a bit confused by the timeframe but it is a paranormal story and fiction. The message in the story is again clear and valuable.
These four stories are quick and easy to read and do share important insights into life and values we should all remember and the reason for the extra half a star.
Short and sweet with a good message.
This is a short story about a secret kept and the consequences it can cause. This is a beautiful story with a powerful message that we can all learn from. Caring and strong characters. I just loved it and highly recommend it. Fantastically done!!
My Thoughts – 5 out of 5 Unicorns – I loved it!!!
***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!! I bought my friend’s book to read, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book!
The cover is beautiful and compelling all at once.
This is a short story about 24 pages. It is a YA book with 4 friends who just graduated high school, and they are magical. This story is an emotionally packed rollercoaster. It is a truly fantastic and beautiful written story. It is true to life because sometimes friends or family can be clueless about things happening around them. Sometimes words accidentally hurt friends and family, but worse is when it is on purpose. I’ve seen families in chaos because of judgement. Love boundlessly and without judgement. You should read this story because it will move you! I cried…a lot!!!
I highly recommend this short story to remind you what love should look like and be without judgement! I can’t wait to see what T.M. Payne shows us next!
