Ok read

This has to be one of Tina’s first books because her newer books are nothing this. Omg I couldn’t stand the heroine sometimes. Honestly this was the first book I ever read and wish the two main characters didn’t end up together. That girl was beyond selfish and the arguments that they have is beyond ridiculous. The age, that’s another thing I wish the author would have Lower it to 17 and 19. They behave two teenagers not a grown 32 and 24 year old. The book was so long I felt I’m reading the same thing over again, because as soon as one problem got solved another arise, seriously. That girl gave me a headache. Blames everyone except herself. At such age how can anyone force you to give up a child? Unrealistic much. Him changing the way he looks that’s another thing. The reason behind all the issues were crazy. Why was this guy so emotional? I’ve never seen a man cry this much, he was better off without ms perfect. So glad Tina doesn’t write this anymore because this was a long way. I figured this was her first book. Would have been good without all the bickering and back an forth. Oscar Langston5

Review from MzJLL

Monica, Monica, Monica you really worked my nerves! This lead character was so irrational. In fact I was happy when Sean walked out on her or hung up the phone on her silly arguments. I also did not understand how she could simply walk out on the son that she gave up for adoption when she found out he was her son. I love Tina Martin's books but not so with this one.

Monica and Sean meet in a school class room. Monica is the school teacher. Sean is the father of Roman her star or pet pupil. From the very first meeting there is a chemistry between the two people. Really, these two people are so strong SECRETS ON LAKE DRIVE by TINA MARTIN needed no other characters to move them along except for Roman. I do think without Roman these two people would have been just two boring, ordinary lovers.

SECRETS ON LAKE DRIVE is about two lonely people who find the best love and enough love to carry them through the roughest of times. Yes, there are secrets on Lake Drive. Those secrets are so powerful I wondered whether the two could make it over the mountain of secrets that really seemed lies. Tina Martin proves in her novel when love is true nothing can drive it away. Whatever stands between two people will slowly drift away fog because the love is so deep. Also, the support of other people helps the lovers too. In the novel there is Keisha. She is Monica's best friend. Monica s her because she always has some sort of advice to offer her when the worse situations happen. She is always available too. There is also Vikki, Sean's mother, Sean's two other brothers, Derrick and Warren. I have to admit for a long time Warren seemed the best one of the brothers. He is sturdy as a rock. His emotions don't tumble around clothes in a dryer. Sean's emotions were up, down, all around and scrambled. Really, for a while he scared me. I think he scared Monica too. By the way the brothers are triplets. Then, there is Nikki, the sister. Of course, there is Roman, Mr. Sweet Guy. He's a sweetheart. Immediately he wants Monica for his mom. He calls her mommy. There is also Shanelle, ex-wife with the big mouth.

I have to go back to Sean. Although Sean is really, really handsome. He bugged me. He doesn't have friends. His brothers are his friends. He is truly possessive. "Clingy" is the word used by Tina Martin, the author. Throughout the book, I kept wanting to say "go away, Sean. Disappear for two hours. Go away." He would have totally smothered me. I thought Sean suffered with mental problems. The word "bipolar" is mentioned. Not from the standpoint of Sean suffering with it but in another context. There are lots of times this one. "I wasn't up for fussing tonight. I would have apologized a thousand times over if it would save me from an argument." Because when you got in it with Sean it was a never ending dark tunnel.

What really shocked me is how long it took before he made love to Monica. Unbelievable. All the hot kisses and nothing further. I thought this guy has real problemos. At the same time it's the waiting for all that hot love that made me really the book. The first page didn't start with I'm on you, for you and want you. There is so much depth to this novel. It takes you to the top of the wonderful novel scale and never lets you down. It leaves you up there trembling. Hoping you don't free fall when secrets begin to burst open on Lake Drive. However, I did free fall. Totally shocked, totally.http://www.tinamartinbooks.com/live/ April6 1 follower
