The Secrets We Keep
The Baptiste sisters, Chante, Darla, and Whitney, all have their own lives to live, but there’s one secret that the three have been keeping from everyone since the night their father disappeared. Can the three keep their secret hidden, or will they be exposed for the crime they committed?
Chante
the oldest of the Baptiste sisters. She was considered the mother figure and has protected Darla and Whitney since their mother passed away ten years ago. While she has a family of her own, she is always bailing out her sisters, which puts a strain on her marriage to DeMarcus. But what could potentially tear her marriage apart is the secret she’s been harboring from DeMarcus. She figures it’s time to tell him, but she knows it’ll cause a rift with her sisters. Will she be able to keep her marriage together while protecting her sisters?
Darla
Darla is the middle sister but has always been the rebellious one. She doesn’t listen to anyone, which always puts her in crazy situations. When her sisters think she has things under control and is living a normal life, she surprises them by doing something stupid. She also changes the men in her life, which has been frowned upon by her sisters, especially Chante. When she gets into a freak accident with a handsome stranger, she sees him as a potential new man in her life, but he could be more than what she bargained for. Will this be another incident that her sisters will have to bail her out of, or will she be able to handle what’s in store for her?
Whitney
Whitney is the youngest sister and always had a good head on her shoulders. She promised her mom that she would achieve the goals set out for her, so she intends to make do with it by becoming Marcy’s newest mayor. She’s also planning her wedding to her college sweetheart, Garrett. But someone in her camp could also be her worst enemy, who will do anything to see her, along with her sisters, falter. Could Whitney not only be able to save her reputation, as well as her sisters, or will their secret be the talk of the town?
Chante, Darla, and Whitney have a lot going for them, but it could all be taken away at a dime. When old wounds begin to reopen, the Baptiste sisters will need each other to get through the issues they will face in their personal lives and with each other.

"The Secrets We Keep" by Sheena Binkley
My Thoughts:
Three sisters, or was it four? 'The Secrets We Keep' was one read you may want to take advantage of. This author gives the reader something to think about long after the read. The real question in this story is whether the secrets are kept because no one knows how to keep a secret, and that's where the problem started. Will the story get figured out by the end? Keep up because so much is happening; you will not want to miss any of this! Will these sisters finally be able to get this mess solved? This is where you must pick up this good read to see how it gets resolved. The only thing left to say is if you want to keep it a secret...don't tell anyone!
