Hidden Falls: Ordinary Secrets

By: Olivia Newport
Narrated by: Rebecca Gallagher

Publisher's summary

Thirty years of small-town secrets - now the key to the mystery is gone. The small town of Hidden Falls is abuzz. Former students, friends, and loved ones are prepping for tonight's big event to honor Ted Quinn's many years of compassionate service. Quinn is reluctant about a night in the spotlight - but is tenderly prodded by Sylvia, mayor of Hidden Falls and Quinn's dearest friend and confidante.

Ethan and Nicole won't let the shadows of their pasts stop them from returning to Hidden Falls - but only for Quinn - no matter how much it hurts. Liam, a former student, and Jack, a town newcomer, are both hoping the night works toward their own gain--or, if they'll admit it, their chance for redemption. Like Quinn, Dani and Lauren are mainstays in Hidden Falls. They keep close to home--and have secrets to keep close, too.

Now it's time. The guests are seated, introductions are made, the spotlight shines on center stage...and the unthinkable leaves the entire town scrambling for the truth.

A new must-read episode releases every week starting January 24!

Cliff hanger/bait.

This is not a story; it's a set up for you to buy the next. It literally only introduces people and brings them together then ends on a cliff hanger. I refuse to buy more on principle.

Whoa!

What is the deal here? I have to use up a credit to get the next chapter and there are 8 more! I expect to pay for the entire book not chapters! Might have started out as an interesting story line but not 8 credits worth by a long shot. The first is the last for this reader. I feel we should have been made aware of the situation up front.

On Going Story

on going story that leads you no were in the End . Like in mind sentence.
It was had to Follow . because sometimes thought they were talking about a female when it was actually a male he would sometimes do a male voice. And other times be a girl voice for the mail. That was confusing this is all spelled wrong because I'm doing it with a speakerphone. I don't have my glasses on and I'm leaving it like this

An open-ended cliffhanger introduction

A good introduction to the characters and set up for the rest of the chapters. Instead of buying the chapters one by one I wish they bundled them for a lower price, like a boxed set. The writing did leave me curious as to how the story would play out.

dragging

not my cup of tea. Might be a more interesting subject for someone who has never been to a small town or went to a class reunion

Really?

One chapter. One chapter that introduces characters, but doesn’t even begin to develop the story. Frankly, I feel ripped off because had I known that this was one chapter I would never have wasted the credit. I don’t intend to continue with this author.

Just enough characters!

Intriguing, and quirky well written, just when I thought enough with the great guy act! Can’t wait for the next episode!

Poor

Intro for a bid to purchase— not a good idea. Let us know what to expect
