THINGS WE KEEP HIDDEN by Jill Lynn, Reviewed by Kim #NewRelease


KIM'S REVIEW:
I've loved every story Jill Lynn has written, and her books are always at the top of my TBR list—Things We Keep Hidden is no exception! I truly loved everything about this story.

This book is filled with relatable, well-developed characters that you can't help but root for. Their personal struggles, the secrets and heartbreak they carry, and the emotional depth of their relationships make for a compelling and heartfelt read. I especially enjoyed getting to know each couple and uncovering the layers of their pasts and connections. And let’s not forget the setting—Colorado!- it’s absolutely perfect and adds just the right atmosphere to the story.

There’s also a subtle mystery twist woven in that keeps you engaged and turning the pages. The writing is beautifully done, and when I reached the last page, I found myself wishing for more. The epilogues were perfection! Jill Lynn has truly outdone herself with this one!

I highly recommend Things We Keep Hidden—it's emotional, thoughtful, and completely captivating. All the stars from me!
*I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own. This is a clean read. Five stars!

BackCover Blurb:

A threatening note.

Long-buried secrets.

Their friendship tested.

The last time lifelong friends Payton, Isley and Clara were together, Clara broke their unwritten rule and brought up the one thing they never talk about. And now, more than twenty years after their friend Cece took her life, they must confront that night as the three women and their husbands—plus one unexpected guest—gather at Isley’s Breckenridge vacation home. With tension already simmering just below the surface of their relationship, they’re each left shaken when a cryptic note arrives: Tell the truth or I will.

Who is the message for and what does it refer to? The women fear it could be linked to the truth they’ve kept hidden since the night Cece died…or maybe it has something to do with one of the problems they’ve each brought with them.

Isley’s son is in rehab after narrowly avoiding jail time, spurring her to a reckless act of her own. Clara, usually so careful to follow rules, is haunted by the one night that she didn’t. And Payton has been in denial regarding her husband’s so-called plan for their marriage.

As the weekend unfolds, all three will revisit the bonds they share and the challenges that have shaped their lives. And by the trip’s end, a truth that shocks them all will be revealed.
