This is a story of unexpected love and healing. The main characters, Shayla and Trey both have complicated pasts, and they try to overcome them as they find something special in each other. I have become a huge fan of Ms. Forrester's fiction. As such, I purchased this book without a second thought. While it's an "okay" read, it is certainly not of the caliber of the other books I've read by her. The character development is lacking, particularly with Trey. The focus is on Shayla, and it leaves things feeling imbalanced. As a result, the relationship development between the main characters is lacking as well. The best part of stories for me is going on the journey with the characters, getting to know them, and being caught up in their world. I did not find this to be the case with Secret. All those things being said, it's an okay read.  My review is probably a little more critical  because I'm comparing it to the author's really great work. I probably would still recommend it, particularly if you like the author. There will be a sequel to this couple's story, and I do plan on reading it.
