INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • A woman uncovers her deepest sexual fantasies in this sizzling novel of empowerment and self-discovery.

“[SECRET] will have you unleashing your inner goddess.”—Romantic Times

In S.E.C.R.E.T., there are . . . No judgements. No limits. No shame.

Cassie Robichaud’s life has been filled with regret and loneliness since the death of her husband. She waits tables at the run-down Café Rose in New Orleans, and every night she heads home to her solitary one-bedroom apartment. But when she discovers a notebook left behind by a mysterious woman at the café, Cassie’s world is forever changed.

The notebook’s stunningly explicit confessions shock and fascinate Cassie, and eventually lead her to S.E.C.R.E.T., an underground society dedicated to helping women realize their wildest, most intimate sexual fantasies. Cassie soon immerses herself in an electrifying journey through a series of rapturous fantasies with gorgeous men who awaken and satisfy her like never before. As she is set free from her inhibitions, she discovers a new confidence that transforms her, giving her the courage to live passionately.

Equal parts enticing, liberating, and emotionally powerful, SECRET is a world where sexual fantasy becomes reality.

Critic reviews

Praise for L. Marie Adeline's S.E.C.R.E.T. trilogy

“[Adeline] takes the ‘casual’ out of ‘casual sex’ and infuses even scenes where you know the characters won't see each other again with an emotional authenticity as well as physical chemistry.”—USA Today

“Enough heat to satisfy even the most voracious of erotica devotees, and the female-empowerment angle might encourage hesitant-but-curious readers to challenge their own inhibitions and give erotica a try.”BookPage

“Smoothly written. . . . Sexy.”Kirkus Reivews

“[S.E.C.R.E.T.] will have you unleashing your own inner goddess.”Romantic Times

“[A] compelling novel.”National Post
Original Premise • Tasteful Scenes • Excellent Voice Work • Empowering Concept • Interesting Fantasy

The story was decently written, and the premise original enough that it kept me reading until the end. I don't really understand the heroine's attachment to Will, but different strokes . . . did you see what I did there? ;-)

Not bad - I'm considering reading the sequel

Shocking as it was, this book never billed abuse or assault as romance, unlike the vast majority of erotic romance novels. It was unique, sexy, and beautiful. I will read everything this author has written.

What erotic romance should be

a great tool to get women to stop and think about accepting themselves and asking for what they want and knowing that they should be able to do these things and not feel ashamed for doing so.

opening up minds and thoughts

Very interesting concept - women helping other women to become powerful. I enjoyed listening as Cassie (main character) grew more confident and built friendships with new friends and co-workers. However, I found the method - experiencing sexual fantasies with strangers - to be a cold & contrived path to personal growth. Not my cup of tea...

Empowerment through Meaningless Sex

This book is about women who are lacking in self-confidence especially where their sexuality is concerned, and how, through the exclusive S.E.C.R.E.T. organization, they have the ability to pick 9 sexual fantasies and live them out to learn the lessons that will help them realize their full potential as women, and more importantly, as human beings.
Quite a trip. Tastefully done.

Interesting fantasy!
