Her Secret Life

By: Tiffany L. Warren

Narrated by: Cherise Boothe

Scarred by poverty and life with a crackhead mother, Onika Lewis had a rough start. Still, thanks to her sharp mind, and hard work, she graduated with honors from a prestigious college. But her achievements weren't enough to earn her the elite status she craved. So she leveraged her gorgeous looks to become a rich man's trophy. And was eventually dumped for a younger model. Now Onika is unemployed, broke - and homeless. She's making a fresh start through a unique women's shelter, but when she meets Graham, a kind-hearted commuter with whom she has an instant connection, she can't bring herself to tell him her secret. Suddenly Onika has someone who cares about who she is beyond her looks. Graham's unselfish love gives her the kind of hope she's never had. But when Onika's wealthy ex wants her back, she plays one deception too many trying to have it all. Now present lies and past secrets are tearing her world apart. And Onika will need to educate herself once more - to learn what really matters, find faith, forgiveness - and build a life she truly deserves.

Really good book.

Really good book. Wish the ending was a little happier but still a good read and narration was decent

Really Good Until….

This book started off great. I was really enjoying the story l, until the end. It’s like the author was tired of the story and wanted it to be over. The narrator was great

Overall, it made me laugh, fuss, cry and smile.

The main character acted haughty and snobby but was in fact naive and kinda stupid for a long long long time. This almost seemed like 2 different books or storylines smashed together. I liked that it circled around God and faith. I wished that the circle was closed with her gaining her faith back. She experienced a very supernatural miracle and it was never explained but leaves the reader to puzzle it out.

You can NEVER hide from your past

Performance was good. A good storyline. A young girl looking to separate herself from her dysfunctional childhood. Thinking of what she thought would make her happy and God guiding her to what happiness truly is.

The Faith that others had for her and the power of her never stopping.

Review of Her Secret Life

Reading Her Secret Life was truly an experience. The book spoke to many types of beliefs, but at its core it delivered a powerful message of faith, perseverance, and never giving up. It reminded me that no matter what challenges we face, having the faith to keep pushing forward with God at the center makes all the difference.

One lesson that stood out to me was how the love of money can distract and even destroy—how chasing it too hard can cause you to lose not only your abilities but also your faith. This truth was woven into the story in a way that really made me stop and reflect on my own life.

To the author, I want to say: this was an amazing book, and it was a pleasure to read it. I would love to hear more, see more, and read more of your work. But beyond that, I would love the chance to meet with you and invite you to join me on my podcast, The JustBox. It would be a gift to talk about the book with you, and to learn what inspired you to write it—whether it was your own personal experiences, the lives of those around you, or something God placed on your heart to share.

Thank you for creating such a meaningful story.
