The Best Kept Secret by Tawna Fenske

4.0

This book was funny and interesting where at times I had my doubts I still enjoyed their story. Leo and Nyla are really good friends, they know each other, and like the same things but there is an attraction that is blooming all of a sudden, the problem is he is her sister’s ex husband. This is what had me questioning whether or not I’d enjoy this aspect, but I kept reading and I’m glad I did. When Nyla, the notorious truth teller, ends up having to hold so many secrets in it all just explodes. Nyla and Leo can’t fight their attraction and yes it may seem odd but Leo and his ex have been divorced for 6 years, were kind of estranged the last year of the marriage, and the divorce was his ex’s idea although he agreed with it. All that being said when his ex tells her secret she hurts so many people but when everyone tries to keep Nyla silent knowing she can’t lie was unfair. Leo is an outstanding man who is willing to help anyone and everyone while sacrificing himself so when it’s time for him to be selfish will he go after what he truly wants freedom or Nyla? Will all their secrets tear this family apart or make their bonds stronger? This was funny, a tad strange at times, but overall I enjoyed it.
