I just finished reading "Secret" and "The Art of Endings", back-to-back, and am pleased with both of the books.  The characters Shayla & Trey are developed well; they're human, successful, flawed and real.  The story takes you through the building of their relationship, how they struggle to cast-off old demons and rebalance themselves in monogamous relationships.  The relationship between Trey and his sister, Tessa, was equally challenging as she was head-strong and determined to forge her own path in life.  The men and women in this book are powerful but vulnerable, and the setting in Washington DC gives these urban characters depth & dimension."Secret" ended well and the story, for all intents and purposes, ended there; but the continuation with "The Art of Endings" gave comfortable finality to both stories.  It highlighted a new set of characters and their relationships, and linked both books beautifully.I've read most all from this author and only one book ("Maybe Never"), was a disappointment.  Her characters are real people dealing with real relationship issues in real world situations.Nice!
