Betray (verb): to deliver to an enemy by treachery

Sold to a sex trafficker by her drug-dealing boyfriend, Phebe Lawson possessed first-hand knowledge of the secrets of betrayal. She’d given up all hope. Her life no longer held any meaning. She would have wished for death to come and take her away, except, she knew wishes were wasted on people like her. Until the day he entered her life. He was a beacon of light in the bleakness she called existence. His arrival sparked a longing inside her that, maybe, hope wasn’t a useless emotion after all.


Heal (verb): to make sound or whole

Donovan Jeffries was the charming one. The flirty, social Dom of the local BDSM club, Eden. He thought he’d found the perfect submissive. Until she betrayed him with another. He closed himself off, vowing to never give his heart to another woman. Until the day she entered his life. Her despair touched a part of his soul he’d thought forever lost, and he would move heaven and earth to piece all her broken parts back together.

OUR REVIEW:

OK.  I have a new favorite in the Secrets Series by L.K. Shaw. 

I love the darker reads and this one was right up my alley.  

Phebe's journey back from her harrowing experience was a tough one to read but it was written very well and I could not put this one down.  Anticipation was the key factor in this story and there was a lot in waiting for Phebe to discover her more submissive side and if it was something she could do and the waiting for Donovan to decide if he can be the Dom she needs.  I actually wanted MORE of the D/s relationship, but I think this book would have become a bazillion pages long.  I can imagine it is hard to get in all the key details of a book of this caliber and knowing that, I'm happy with the story as is.  Though I do hope they make cameo's in future books!

Secrets of Betrayal does follow a storyline from previous books, but it is a standalone and can be read as such.  I loved the previous stories as well, so obviously I recommend getting them too!

I am giving Secrets of Betrayal 5 stars.  Not sure how L.K. Shaw will top this one for me...
