Real Secrets
Set in Atlanta, GA Real Secrets is the story of Tamara Roman, a professional dancer in the exotic night club “Secrets.” Tamara has built her life around alcohol and promiscuity to escape the realities of her choices. As a single mother and long-time girlfriend to her son’s father, Darren, her loyalties to dancing and family life are tearing her apart. When an explosive encounter between her and Darren turns violent she must decide if she will continue in an abusive relationship or escape further into the world of stripping.
Real Secrets exposes old prejudices and secrets of the past, which threaten to overwhelm a family who have been pillars of the community and tear down relationships built on lies and lust. Addressing the stigma and pain of domestic violence, the lure of a promiscuous world, and the beauty and hurt stemming from interracial relationships, Real Secrets is a tale of love, survival, and the success of rising above one’s limitations and overcoming the horrors of abuse. And while the characters are tortured by the skeletons in their closet, this book demonstrates how freeing it can be to deal with those hidden secrets. It shows how successful you can be if you pursue your goals and dreams regardless of what path you take in life.
