A review by ladydireads
Our Little Secret by Lisa Jackson

3.0

He swore he’d never let her go. She should have believed him.

“How far would you go for something you wanted?”

Brooke Harmon is ready to end her short revenge fling with Gideon Ross. She’s going to try to make it work with her husband. But things aren’t always that easy. Brooke quickly learns that what she thought was a fun fling that can be ended at any time, has turned into a dangerous obsession and Gideon may not be the man she thought he was.

“I would do anything.” “If I had to, I would kill”

Our Little Secret is my first Lisa Jackson book and I did enjoy it, even though it had predictable parts and seemed a bit over the top. This book was full of betrayals, lies and laced with some paranoia. No-one is being honest, which makes you not really connect with any one character. Even though the book was written in Brooke’s POV, I think the author did a good job of helping build the sub characters back stories for us. There is a storyline in the book about 2 missing girls, that sort of just disappeared by the end of the book. There was a lot of time spent on this and I feel like it would have been great to get the end to it (we do for one girl but not the second one). Maybe that’s a future book?! Overall, this was an easy read.
