Some secrets are better left untouched.
Sienna
I’m seeing a war unfold before my eyes. My past and future have now collided, and my heart is split in two.
As the battle rages on, secrets surface and truths circle the drain, threatening to suck me under.
Elio promised we had the rest of our lives together, but now he’s questioning my history and doubting my loyalty.
Elio
Love and family are all that matter, so I keep a careful eye on our new visitors who have awoken the hornets’ nest and revealed the snakes that have lain dormant for years.
As I try to protect Sienna from her own past, betrayals are surfacing, and my paranoia is intensifying.
One secret is discovered that will undoubtably change everything.
**May contain triggers, intended for a mature audience 18+. Does end on a cliffhanger-ish. Sneak peek of book 3, Quiet Power, at the end. I promise all will be okay.**
Renee’s Five Star Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
This is the second book in the Quiet Mafia Series. You have to read the first book, Quiet Wealth, before diving in to this one or you are going to be lost. Quiet Secrets picks up right where Quiet Wealth left off. IF there was any doubt that Elio and Sienna were any less a hot couple in this book then you’d be wrong. There still going to light your kindle on fire. However there are forces out there that they have not a clue about. Someone doesn’t want them to get the Happily Ever After. We get that addition of Sienna’s mom in this book and man things are getting crazier and crazier. I know this is a very vague review but I do not want to talk about the plot and ruin something for someone. This is one of those books you could really get down to how you really feel about it but you can’t because it’s twisted and you just don’t know that you really know that you know what you’re actually talking about. I guess we shall find out. This is a great series that I am loving so so much.

EXCERPT
I felt rage burn through my veins at that. It was the first I’d heard of it.
“It was all supposed to happen, and then you came along. Little orphan girl, with the big blue eyes, and the big fake boobs.”
I licked the inside of my mouth, leaned over the island, grabbed her hand, and yanked her straight down onto the marble countertop. I moved my face inches from hers and smiled like the crazy person I was becoming.
“Elio wants a real woman, not some skinny drunk who can’t keep the bottle from her jacked-up lip job. Nor would he even want to entertain visiting your eight-men-a-day, stretched out, trailer trash vag.” She blinked at my crass words. “Come at me again, and I promise I will show you what I learned on the streets.”
I let go and leaned back, snatching the bottle from Mariano, who stared at me with a gaping mouth. “Oh, Anna, these are far from fake.” I took another shot, high-fived Donte behind the counter, and left.
