Publisher's Summary

She was the fruit of a forbidden tree, but nothing in this world was going to stop me from tasting her.  

My name is Dylan Murphy, and I work for the rich and powerful of an exclusive Manhattan building. Graham Morgan was my first boss, but soon after I was working with some of the most famous entrepreneurs, business moguls, and movie stars in the city. They trusted me because I always followed the cardinal rules: 

Never betray secrets. And never, under any circumstance, get personally involved. I'd never dreamed of violating my professional mantra. Not until she walked past me.  

The look we exchanged that night set my body on fire, and I knew right then and there that no matter the consequences, she was going to be mine. But she was one of them - off limits and out of my league, but she was the kind of woman who I was willing to risk everything for. I keep other people's secrets for a living, but the biggest secret of all might be my own.

Dylan and Penelope

I enjoyed everything about this book. Lance Greenfield and Muffy Newtown are fantastic narrators, they truly brought Penelope and Dylan to life. This book was intriguing, suspenseful, and entertaining. Loved it!

5 Stars!!! The best so far from the Hero Club!

Wow! If you loved Stuck Up Suit by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward then you'll love Secret Keeper by Christopher Harlan. The writing and story line was perfection the narrators did an amazing job with Dillon and Penelope. There was lots of Graham Morgan and Soraya and the entire story just made sense it was as if Vi and Penelope wrote this themselves...Amazing!!!! this was my first novel by Christopher Harlan and I gotta say I will definitely be reading more of his work. This was a great story beginning to end. Must read!

An amazing book in the world of one of my favs!

So a couple of the other ladies on this blog have been telling me for a while I NEED to read Christopher Harlan. And I've been wanting to. But so many books, so little time, right? Then this popped up on Audible and I was like an author I've been wanting to read, a romance in cocky hero world... heck to the yes! And omg I get the obsession! I loved every minute of this book. And it wasn't just because he had characters from one of my favorite books Stuck Up Suit in it. This is my first romance book I've read written by a man and I have to say I think Christopher Harlan is the king. I was hooked on the book from page one until the end. I was even a little bummed it was over. The steamy scenes in this book.. probably the best I've read. No lie. This book is about Dylan who is works for the rich as their whatever you need man. He thinks of himself as a secret keeper. He meets Penelope and there is an instant attraction. But she's engaged. He doesn't forget about her. And he is there for her when her world crumbles. Dylan falls for her hard but he might be soon to be working for her ex who wants her back and will do all in his power to make sure she is his again. Get ready to swoon for Dylan. Ultimate good guy hero. These narrators brought these characters to life. I felt like I knew them! This is a must read/listen. And now I need to read everything else by this author.

Great story

Loved the connection the characters have. Dylan is one smart man . He is a complicated compassionate man. Penelope is a down to earth compassionate woman. Loved all the twist in this story.

Intriguing story filled with twists and turns!

Listening to the first several chapters of this book is like watching a tapestry being woven. I really wasn't sure were Christopher was exactly going as far as making this a romance book. Then as the chapters weaved together, the threads started taking shape and the romance picture became clearer. This book is filled with intrigue, greed, secrets, honest and dishonest business owners, good friends and family members, and love. There will also be some passionate and explosive love scenes. Dylan has worked for the rich and powerful. As this story progressives we watch as his goal and priorities change. I see the most character development in Dylan. Penelope's character also develops but her main concern has been for a family member. I like how Christopher even let's us gain more insight into Graham, Dylan's mentor and extremely successful businessman. This story will take many twists and turns. There will be many times when you will hold your breath and fear for Dylan and Penelope. This is a complex story that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Muffy and Lance are new narrators to me. They did an outstanding job of portraying the emotions and personalities of these characters. They gave the characters distinctive voices thereby bringing them to life. With their voices and the author's words, I was able visualize the story and the tapestry was now complete. I highly recommend this Audible book for you listening pleasure. Kudos to the author and to the narrators.

Secret Keeper

This is my first Cocky World read and I’m excited. Dylan is the personal assistant of Graham (from Stuck Up Suit). He’s from Queens, tatted, former military and great a reading people. He is instantly attracted to Penelope but unfortunately she is engaged to Chandler (who just may become his future boss). However things change quickly when’s she leaves Chandler and one of Dylan’s “tasks” to see if he gets the new job is to talk to Penelope to try to get her back with the jerk, Chandler. - I won’t get into more plot wise (because there is a lot more going on and I don’t want to spoil anything) but it was interesting and not like anything I’ve read before. They were perfect for each other in many ways and it was an entertaining storyline. I’m looking forward to more from this author and also more in the Cocky world.

Secret Keeper

This book was full of suspense, action, sexiness, feelings. It had it all. I loved this book and was so sad when it ended. I wanted to hear more of their story. Dylan and Penelope fit so well!

Lance Greenfield and Muffy Newtown were perfect narrators for this story. They were really able to bring t to life.

Thanks for giving us such a great story Christopher Harlan!

Enjoyed the story and narration

This was the first Christopher Harlan novel for me, and I found it through the Cocky Hero Club universe. It was intriguing, interesting, engaging and I felt invested in the characters throughout.

An enjoyable read/listen. The narration by Muffy Newtown and Lance Greenfield was as expected. These are two seasoned narrators that always bring life to the romance characters that they take on.

Cute story

I thought this story was really cute. I thought I recognized some of the characters but did not realize who they were till I read the other reviews! I love seeing characters from other books in new ones! The characters were likable and funny. I usually like the insta love stories but I felt like I wanted a little more build up from this one. It felt like they went from 0-basically a couple that’s been together a long time. I think it could have been nice to have a slightly slower burn for them. Overall though it was great! 💕💕💕 I definitely want to check out more by this author!

Twist and turn

So it was fun to see characters from stuck up suit book again I miss Graham. This story has some definitely twists and turns and you weren't sure which way it was going and at one point I was mad I wanted to tell at it. It was absolutely entertaining. The narrator's did a excellent of job, you really believe they were the characters.
