> 3 dayWhat a read! In the end I didnt know if I should scream, cry, shout for joy or get mad. Wow! It was a heavy read. We meet three close friends: Shayla the smart one. Rhonda, the fiery of the bunch and Gladys, the Spanish salsa. They take different roads in life but their sisterhood remains. They have each others backs. Aint that the truth! Or is it? What happens when you throw a man in the mix? Can the invisible line drawn in the sand of sisterhood be crossed to a place of no return? Deep. Titus, a street thug who plays dirty while keeping his hands clean marries the love of his life; Shayla. Oh the bliss. Oh the merriment. Life for the two is perfect. They have all they wanted and more. However, as the years go by Shalay is feeling the distance between her and her husband grow wider. Shed confide in Gladis but she knows that she has enough to worry about what with her marriage barely holding on. She turns to Rhonda. The one with the ears always willing to listening. The one who constantly defends Titus like a brother. Shayla tells her everything. Every fight or disagreement to every intimate detail of their nights of romance. Rhonda never refuses to hear. She is always quick to give advice. What are sisters for? Yet she has her own evil motive. She wants Titus as well as all of what Shayla has. Forget the time Shayla took her in when her own mother kicked her out of the house. Sisterhood doesnt matter in the game of love and war. She is set on ending the marriage with each lingering kiss she plants on Titus skin and with each moment they spend in the adulterous bed filled with sweet roses and their thorns. The secrets of a kept woman is spiced with adultery, betrayal, abuse, and revenge. But in the end a beautiful thing springs forth; strength. The strength to move on and the strength to continue on. When I saw Gladis and Shayla displaying this strength I felt proud having cursed them throughout the read. What can I say, those two were my favourite characters. If anyone deserved some happiness after the smokes cleared it was those two. Dramatastic is how Ill describe Secrets Of A Kept Woman. Trust me it will not leave you bored for a minute. Happy reading! -Chantol Aspinall

> 3 dayThis book couldve been so good but it was rushed in the beginning and dragged in the middle. It was so dragged out and long that i had to skip lots of pages. Many of us readers arent hispanic so didnt get the language written, although sometimes the author translated.

> 3 dayFirst time reading anything by this author. It has a good storyline, I just needed for the characters to be a little more developed. It has an easy plot to follow, although it does need a little fine tuning. Also there are a few minor editing mistakes which interrupts the flow of the story by having to stop reading and quickly decipher what it is the author is conveying. Otherwise it is a good read. Thank you for sharing your story Ms. Dowdell.

> 3 dayI have never wrote a review before but I felt the need to write one for this book. If I could put no stars then I would, because thats how dissatisfied I was with this book. This book actually had the makings to be a wonderful book if the author would stop rambling on and on and on before she gets to the point. It takes so long for the action to begin because the characters are talking to themselves for as much as three pages. I love long books but dont ramble to make the book longer. Get to the point
