House of Secrets, with Giveaway

January 9, 2012 by Lauren

Bailee Cooper’s life is going very well. She is on a successful career path at a growing publishing company, and the boss’s son Mark, who happens to be a really nice guy, would love nothing more than to develop a relationship with her. Unfortunately, Bailee resists emotional ties with anyone, except for her younger sisters. Although they are adults, Bailee can’t help but feel responsible for them, and she refuses to take on jobs or relationships that could interfere with caring for their needs. Bailee’s difficulties stem from the past–she saw her father drug her mother as a child, and her mother died during the night. She has kept this secret since childhood, while vowing to stay strong for her younger sisters who rely on her like a mother.

Curious? Read my full review of House of Secrets at 5 Minutes for Mom. Leave a comment over there through January 22 to enter to win your own copy.

Lauren is a wife, mother of two, and an avid reader. She blogs at Baseballs and Bows.
