REVIEWS:

From: Sarah Latham, Charlotte NC
I found this book to be real with everyday drama, and experiences that really hit home. I cant wait for the sequel.

From: Alfreda Barringer
"Why I Kept My Past A Secret" by Teresa Browning is a powerful testament of faith. It reveals some ugly truths of life and speaks to the power of persevering in the midst of adversity. Browning reveals hidden lessons about betrayal, family violence, addictions, personal tragedies, and about one young woman's desire for friendship and love. The story runs deeper than the passion of sex. It is more than a mere single mother's story of struggles and hardships. It is a journey to overcome.

I enjoyed the book very much. I have only had it for 5 days and I have already read it twice. It was one of the best books I have every read.
I do hope that there will be a part two to this exciting book. I have spoken about the book so much in the past two days on my job that I have 3 of my co-workers begging to let them read it for themselves. I told them okay, but [for real girl] I have already put the book on my bookshelf at home because I don't want to lend my book out. It's always your favorite book that you lend out and never get back. I know that they will enjoy the book so much that they will talk about it just as much as I did. And, then they will past the book on to someone else, and I will never get my book back. I talked about the book to my husband so much that he feels like he has read the book. He made the comment; "someone needs to make that book into a movie". I agreed, saying that would be nice. I look forward to reading more of your books in the future, until then May God's Grace and Mercy be with you, and may he continue to bless you to keep writing excellent, exciting, and enjoyable books.

It states that you will be in Washington, DC on Sept. 29, but it does not state were. Can you give me the location? I would love to come. I would like to purchase a few books for Christmas presents and have Theresa Browning autograph them.

This book is excellent. I was glad to read it, and I feel that it was well put and a lot of women should read this book, cause it will give them a big wake up call.
