Secret Betrayals is a messed up way to define friendship. Meet the ladies that will have you screaming, laughing and just plain shaking your head! This book brings the best and worst out of the people involved and still leaves you wanting more. Sexy Steaming and HOT is my best description of this page turner!

OMG, Secret Betrayals had my attention from the first word. We have three woman with three different stories. However I do have one that I like she is the Gold-digger. Not that I am saying I am one, but every now and then I can learn a thing or two. One thing I can say like Mary J Blige "Don't let a woman cook in your kitchen"

I was captivated from the first page of Secret Betrayals. The story line has a familliar theme as we all have known at least one of these characters. Jasmine the woman with the good man waiting in the wings, but would rather have what she can't...even if he belongs to someone else, Toya the Gold digger who has made her dating her job, she refuses to get emotionally attached and Chante who has the ideal life but is the prime example of money cant buy you happiness. This book offers some really close calls and will definately bring a new meaning to keeping your enemies close but your friends closer. The events change and keep you intrigued throughout the reading...

As I began to read Secret Betrayals I knew I was not going to be able to put it down. Can you say juicy it had my mouth watering for more with all the drama and action. You will definitely find someone you know in the book whether its Jasmine who falls in love with a married man but has a man that worships every step she take and lord forbids she get pregnant, Toya The gold digger the chick that puts a price to everything but pays the ultimate price, or Chante a lady that has everything at home with a supportive family but seeks that thug lovin she's not getting at home. Yes you can definitely take a few life pointers from this book because this is definitely happening in a neighborhood near you!

Secret Betrayals is a fascinating story that held my attention from the beginning to the end. The three friends, Jasmine, Chante, and Toya, had me completely wrapped up in their lives. Jasmine is cheating on her rich husband, Josh. And Josh is cheating on her with her friend, Chante, while Toya is sleeping with everybody (and calling them sponsors). But as the story unfolds, each woman begins to realize that there are consequences for their actions. Told from a first-person point of view, you feel as if you're living the life of each character whether you want to or not.
As a debut author, I applaud Mrs. Wilson's efforts and hopes that she will continue writing and sharing such lively stories...

Secret Betrayals was a delight to read. I was able to read this book in one sitting as it was filled with twists and turns. At times, I was shaking my head because I could not believe the turn of events. This book had the perfect recipe for disaster and drama when a person mistakes lust for love and gets the two emotions confused. As human beings, we sometimes get love and lust confused and the characters of "Secret Betrayals" were no exception. The reader will probably recognize either a part of themselves or someone that they know while reading this book because it touches on real life situations. I could not stop reading this book and I look forward to reading more from Harriet Wilson.

When I started reading this book, I thought "Oh No not another book on sleeping with my friends man", but as I got in to Secret Betrayals, I must admit I recognized a few people I know, and found that I couldn't put it down. It seems no one is ever satisfied with what they have for one reason or another. If drama,lust, and betrayals is your forte,then this quick read won't dissapoint.

It has always amazed me how we as humans function in lust; believing it to be love. Its also amazing the excuses we use to stay in dysfunctional lustful relationships. Merriam Webster Online dictionary defines lust as an "intense longing" and love as "strong affection for another" no wonder we can't always differenitate the two and the characters of Secret Betrayls have a tough time as well.
Life's situations taught Toya early on that she possessed something of value when used to it's fullest potential. This possession allows her to live the life some of us only dream about. Chante is married to Josh, he's handsome and successful. His success at Swagga, Inc. affords his wife the dreamy lifestyle she lives as a stay at home mom B.A.P (Black American Princess).But the thing Josh is lacking he finds outside the home. Lastly we are introduced to Jasmine; single and living the life with no regrets however the choices she makes and the karma she releases into the universe certainly remembers her name. All three women find that life's choices are not so black and white; there's many shades of grey.
I really enjoyed Secret Betrayal's; the storyline kept me turning the pages and it was fun getting to know the characters. If you are looking for a light read filled with drama, twist and moments of oh noo she didn't then this is the book for you.
