I loved Secret Shared.
This book will pull you in until you finish the last page. Cassie isn't afraid of anything anymore and I loved how L. Marie Adeline wrote such a strong character. She has her flaws as we all do but she isn't scared anymore and that alone is enough to empower other women.
Secret and Secret Shared are well worth your time to read. They aren't like any other books I've read and you really get to grow with the characters.
This is a must read for anyone wanting to feel more empowered.

Plain and simple.
Spoiler
Will is an ass. How dare that judgmental fuck make Cassie feel bad for the changes she decided to make in herself! He didn't even bother to listen to what she was saying because his pride and ego was too bruised by the fact that she slept with Jean Pierre. I really hope she doesn't forgive him in the next book and completes her S.E.C.R.E.T. lesson of learning to let go, because he doesn't deserve her. And I don't want to see Jessie get his heart broken again.jasmyn9's review against another edition

I think this will be the last one in this series for me. I just can't get into the storyline. This one begins with the mysterious Dauphine experiencing a Secret fantasy. Then it jumps back in time to the beginning to show how she got into Secret. It was very disjointed and hard to follow the time line. It seemed much more like individual little episodes than a cohesive story.
Dauphine's story was unique though. Her journey through Secret was quite different from Cassie's and ended much differently as well. We have a return "bad guy" and Cassie once again loses her happy ending at the last second. Dauphine has quite the fairy tale happy ending and it was just far to easy to be true and it wasn't satisfying at all.
It was very interesting to see more of the inner workings of this secret club. I got to see a training session with a new guy as well as see how the organization is financed. It's too bad that was the most interesting part - I had really hoped for more out of this one.

I was happy that the serie continued where it left. The new girl's journey was interesting to follow but the last fantasy was somehow not realistic. And weird drama in the end of the book. I might still read the third book.

This was a quick light read. I enjoyed reading in my mother tongue for a change. This book should not be taken too seriously, it was fun.
