Book Reviews of Secrets So DeepBook Review: Taut--Not, Entertaining Nonetheless Summary: 4 StarsMacGregor is one of my favorite authors. Really, she is. I liked the characters here. But to suggest as one reviewer did that it is was a taut psychological thriller would be like saying "Bittersweet" was a fun, breezy read. You can guess what happened fairly easily. But I gave this book four stars because it was still a fun ride and the characters were enjoyable. If I could I would have given it four-and-a-half stars because the author finally gives us a satisfying ending. Her books have traditionally just ended, which I hate. This one she gives us hopeless romantics some closure and a glimpse of something special for the main characters. I also think she writes some of the best sex scenes anywhere. ("Out of Love" was the best in that regard.) I just wish there were more sex scenes. But alas, the plot didn't allow for it. I am generally forgiving of gratuitous sex, but I know some reviewers are merciless. MacGregor (and other authors) should be commended for letting the characters and plot decide in that regard, though I would urge her gently and playfully that her next PLOT should incorporate more of it.
Summary of Secrets So DeepSixteen-year-old Sebby Wright holds a secret that threatens his mother--a secret from his past so murky even he can't see it clearly. When he tries to take his own life, psychiatrist Charlotte Blue suspects his problems are rooted in the accidental death of his father eleven years ago, and new fears of losing his mother to breast cancer. She recommends an intensive treatment program, where beating back his demons means facing horrible memories he buried long ago.
Since assuming her late husband's congressional seat, Glynn Wright has led a quiet life of devoted service and motherhood, earning a reputation as a dependable soldier in her party. She is prepared to sacrifice everything to save her son, including the revelation that she is a lesbian, a move that would likely mean the end of her political career, and estrangement from her family.
One by one, the secrets spill with devastating consequences for Glynn. Even Charlotte suffers from the fallout, as her faith in Glynn--and the growing attraction they can't resist--puts her at odds with her profession. Together, they search for the only thing that can save them--the truth about Glynn's husband's tragic death.
