Dangerously addictive, The Secrets of Us is a pulse-pounding exploration of a disturbed psyche and the bond between two sisters desperate to escape a troubled past. Foster sisters Krystal and Nichole have always been there for each other, so when Nichole is committed to a psychiatric hospital after trying to kill her husband, Krystal drops everything to defend her. Scarred by a hard upbringing, Nichole and Krystal managed to construct comfortable lives for themselves. Krystal became a respected lawyer, and Nichole was happily married to an architect--until Nichole starts raving that her husband isn't her husband, believing that he's an imposter. Driven by fierce loyalty, Krystal starts asking questions, but she's not sure she can bear the answers. Her investigation leads to the sisters' dark shared past...to a horrible tragedy and a well-guarded lie that cemented their sisterly bond. But that lie can't kill the truth--the battered, gasping, clawing truth that's coming for them both. Now Krystal and Nichole must both fight for the lives they've built before they're consumed by the one they left behind.

"<strong>Addictive read</strong><br/><br/>I like how the book goes back and forth from Nichole’s point of view as her and Krystal grow up to Krystal’s point of view in the present. It was hard to stop reading. However the book ended too soon. I have many questions like, what happens to Nichole, Krystal, and Aiden after they talk to the detective? Does Nichole ever remember that she actually did the crime? Does Mrs. Wheeler go to jail? Does Nichole go to jail or stay at the mental hospital? Does Nichole do the crime because Alice is back? Is she now cured from Alice?"
