I have been a fan of Ms Hamilton for a long time, and somehow had failed to read Fredo’s Secret. So, I decided it was time to reconnect with him via an audio book titled Fredo’s Secret. First I have to say, I enjoyed the narrator’s delivery. You always knew who was speaking. So I was happy to give it a try.
In this story we discover recent news Fredo has received which have devastated him tremendously, but though he knows he needs to tell Mia, who is now his wife, he fears her reaction.
In the midst of all this, there are gangs threatening lives in the neighborhood Mia’s mom lives, and he is determine to help the neighborhood.
We get a chance to greet some of our favorite characters from previous stories: Cooper (whom I loved) and Kyle.
At the end, will Fredo reveal his secret or will he continue to keep Mia in the dark? Pick up the audio or the novella to find out. You will not be disappointed since this is another entertaining and thoughtful story by Ms Hamilton.

I love Fredo!!!

What did you love best about Fredo's Secret?

Okay I love Fredo hard! He is one of my favorites and I'm glad to get to see him in a light all his own.

Seems Fredo is good at getting himself into trouble even when he isn't looking for it. So when he is gunned down in the street the hint starts for the arsemuncher(s) that shot him. And for the one that saved his life.

Mia of course just wants to keep him home to heal. The cops are out of their league and Fredo, oh he's one determined SOB.

With the time he spends looking in this neighborhood he notices just how bad things have gotten. So him and his team along with others decide to help the community out. It is almost Christmas after all. But their "helping" the community by fixing up an old school's basketball court so the kids in the area have a safe place to play sets off a chain of events that puts them all in a place between a rock and a hard place.

In the end though they have to put a stop to the arsemunchers causing the issues and destruction. Who better to do that than the SEAL team?

I do love these fellas, they're all so special in their own way!

What do you do when you have a big secret?

What do you do when you have a big secret and you don't know how to tell the one you love? You ask your best friend for advice.
It was great seeing the team come together and work as a unit. It was refreshing to see such a confident man effected so deeply with the burden of his secret. He loves her for certain, but he doesn't know if she will continue to want to be with him once she knows his secret.

I can only imagine what a man like Fredo is feeling. My heart truly felt for him.
Thank you Sharon for writing another high energy story that also portrays real life issues and struggles.

Any additional comments?

Fredo has always been one of my favorites in the series and getting more of him was awesome. The narrator JD Hart is just outstanding by how he brings the story to life

It was good

I did like this story. I think Fredo should have told Mia his secret, but besides that, it was a good story. The narrator was okay to listen to.
