This has been my favorite read of this series. Tags is a great hero who treats Victoria with respect and is nothing like Capone. Victoria is one messed up woman. I felt bad for her once we found out what kind of person her ex was .
Tags and the rest of the MC members respected Victoria . I hated that the cut-sluts got to her. They got all new girls to put a stop to the snide underhandedness. Perhaps they need to get rid of those girls altogether?
I loved seeing the tattoo shop that Tags ran. I was a bit confused because Wrath and Kyler worked there in the last book but now they have Millie and Trevor. Not sure why they switch workers but okay.
I am chomping at the bit to find out more about Victoria's brothers , Torch and Pyro. We know something is going on with Pyro but it hasn't been revealed as to what his situation is. Then Torch has a little thing with the baker . I wondering if that is our couple in the next book or will the author completely switch it up.
Victoria's journey is long and hard. She goes through hell to get her HEA. I was glad to see that she grew as a person and Tags allowed her the space to do that. I would have liked her to have become his Ol' Lady in this book but perhaps that will come in a later book.
This book has a lot of stuff going on in it and it kept me hooked from the first page to the last. I can't wait to read more . The way Satan went to bat for Victoria and the way Raine helped her made me love them more. I can't wait to see what is in their future as well.

If a book isn't on Kindle Unlimited, I really think twice about whether or not to purchase. You just don't know what you'll receive. However, I had read the first two books, and I kind of wanted to know what else was going to happen. Our Secrets should really be Victoria's story of not only forgiveness and self-love but also of finding her own inner strength. I am not sure how she's still standing in the end after all the action and suspense that's thrown her way.
In Our Secrets, Victoria can't hide from the people who know her best. There are plenty of secrets that she's keeping, and between Tags and her brothers, they're not going to remain buried much longer. As each one is unraveled and dealt with, it just seems like there's a never break in the action. If Victoria was real, she'd have a terrible case of whiplash, but she handles it with grace and humility. The only thing I truly didn't like about this book was that there's not a definite ending to their story. You know that they're going to live happily ever after, but the last chapter sets up the next couple.
Pyro and Torch outshine Tags in his own book. Tags is everything a book boyfriend should be, a bad biker with a soft spot for the women he loves. However, it's Victoria's brothers that shine from the background. Pyro's tragic story has been hinted at throughout the series, but we get one extra detail towards the end. It's maddening that there's so many clues, but they can't be put together. Torch is just the gentle giant trying not to scare his lady love. The next couple isn't really specified, but I have to know what's going to happen next.

Secrets Can Hurt
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2020
Tags had down the forbidden, he'd hooked up with not only one but two of his club brothers' little sister. What started out as just sex, got serious for both of them. But Victoria was hiding things from her brothers and Tags. Something that was killing her and about to have her hit rock bottom. I loved that Tags was trying to let her come to her own realizations, but a tiny piece of me wishes he'd pushed her sooner. Thankfully, she does go through h*ll and comes out recovering on the other side. With him and her brothers at her side. Which is good because Scott, her ex, is in need of someone to put him down. The trials and the added pain she goes through was very emotional to read. I haven't had the chance to read the first two books in this series yet. But I will. Overall, this was a good book. If I would change anything I might want to see more on their relationship over the months they were secretly hooking up. Just to see how they got to the point of where the story started. (If it was detailed in an earlier book, I didn't know it) I received this as an ARC in return for an honest review.

This is my 1st book by Erin and let me tell you she had me hooked from the very 1st page. I love a good MC book and I could not put this down. I went through many emotions reading this. I laughed, cried and got mad but what drew me in was that it touched home to myself and I’m sure many people out there.
My heart broke for Victoria and fell in love with Tags. Victoria came from an abusive, controlling ex that caused a downward spiral for her to turn to alcohol to cope. Finally realizing she needed help she turned to her brothers and Tags. Victoria turned her life around, however at every turn she just couldn’t catch a break from her ex. Tags is every girl’s dream man, never giving up on Victoria. He supported her every step of the way, faced her brothers admitting his feelings and protected her from her ex.
I highly recommend this book. I read this as a standalone but I am definitely going back to read the 1st two in this series. I'm also looking forward to Torch’s story. He is such an incredible big brother.

This book brought out a mixture of feelings in me. It felt like the characters couldn't decide whether or not they wanted to be together, at times, which made me want to slap them but other times I was crying for Victoria. I felt for her, and everything she went through. After she came clean to them about what had been going on in her life, I was glad that she had Tags and her brothers by her side.
Our Secrets had a lot of action, betrayal, and suspense that kept me turning the pages. I was very surprised to find that this book had very little sex in it. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like books that are all sex and no story, but I felt there were a couple of places that could have used a sex scene just to show their relationship’s progression..
Overall it was a really good read. Although the book can be read as a stand alone I strongly suggest you read the others in the series first.

Tags and Victoria
This is such an emotional and heartbreaking story. From the moment I started reading my tears began to fall. Victoria has lost so much. She doesn’t even know where she starts let alone where she ends, from losing herself to having a miscarriage and then her kidnapping and getting beat up by her ex. Such a tragic storyline, but like in every book that this author has written, there’s so much love and compassion when she falls for a MC club member. Tags is so determined to find his happily ever after and soon he finds that Victoria is the one that has his heart in her hand But like everything else there is challenges that he’s going to have to breakthrough because Victoria has so many challenges to face. So excited to read the next book in this series.

Be prepared for an emotional roller coaster ride when you read this book. Victoria's life isn't an easy one and she holds a lot of things to herself and doesn't want to burden anyone. The fear that what she has been through could affect more people than just herself is very real. My heart aches for her and the demons she holds on to. Tags are a good match for her and push her where she needs it. I did like the fact that even though he can be somewhat of a butthead, he has a good heart. The fact he steps up for her just as he does for those around him is pretty awesome. I'm not a mega-fan of the way it ended, but I know that there is going to be something much bigger that has to be coming in the next book. I loved this book and can't wait for the next one!

This book will have you hooked from the start. Tags fell for his brothers little sister, he knows what she is keeping a secret and wants to help. Victoria takes to drinking to forget the pain and loss she suffered from her ex. When her brothers learn her secrets they like the man she loves help her heal. Yet unknown Victoria's ex has other plans. Its Tags and his brothers who will step up and show not just her ex but a new enemy to the club you never mess with one if their own.

This story takes you on a rollercoaster. The lows the Victoria goes through made my heart shatter. What she endured was so tragic. I love that Tags is the pillar of strength but still shows his feelings. Victoria and Tags together form this incredible bond. I am now on the edge of my seat waiting for Torch and Becky’s story and to see what transpires with the Cartel!
November 25, 2020
For me, I really enjoyed this book, it must have been considering I read it in one go, it's action packed as Victoria's ex is stalking her and goes on to kidnap her leaving Tags and the guys to try and get her back, she has a rough road to travel and not all the questions are answered.

Tags & Vic
Holy smokes this book is gut wrenching and action packs. My heart broke for Vic and all she has endured. Seeing Tags break down tore at my heart strings. Torch, Pyro and Vic have been through so much as a family I can't wait to see them have more good in their lives. I can't wait to see what happens next!

This is Victoria and Tags story that will take you on a rollercoaster ride from start to finish. It's full of drama, action and suspense that will hook you from the first page. This was first book from this author and I really enjoyed the story. I'm going to have to go and read the other books in the series. Can't wait to see what's next in the series.

Inconsistencies
The story line is good but the inconsistencies in the story is bad. There is one part where she says she had only been with her ex and the hero but then says later that she slept around a lot. Also once says she was on birth control then later says she's not. Story to all over the place.

I absolutely loved this book.
The story was very well written and
hooked me from page one. I have to
say it does end on sort of a cliffhanger.
The couple had amazing chemistry.
I would recommend this book to others.

Hard to put down
How much does one woman have to endure? Alot apparently, Victoria doesn’t catch a break. But her man Tags catches her each time. I would love to see happiness with an easier life for them as the series continues. Its hard not to fall in love with tags.

No cheating. Which is great, and unusual for this author. All I can say is poor Victoria, what she suffered through was horrendous but I love how she got the help she needed and got better, I love how patient Tug is with her.

The only problem is that there is no reading order and I think this is somewhere in the middle so I'm a little confused. But I loved the book and want to read the others

I started this at work and couldn’t put it down. So mad this was a cliff hanger but so worth it.

3.5 stars
I had to think long and hard about this review.
While, on the whole, the story was really good, and the characters were well developed, there were issues that I couldn't overlook that meant I could not give it more stars.
There were continuity issues and spelling errors that took away from the enjoyment for me. Plus, some of the issues the heroine had to deal with (ie club bunnies) had apparently already been dealt with in a previous book. It seemed a shame to therefore see it used in yet another book.
I'm not going to let these issues stop me from reading the rest of the series, because like I said at the beginning, the story, on the whole was really good.

Absolutely Loved this Book
I was pulled into this book right from the beginning, staying there until I had read every single word that was written. I even had my mini movie playing along in my head.
Twists, turns and surprises await you within the pages of this story, some of the surprises are large, while others aren't. Some you may see coming where as others you won't. Some may pull on your heart strings and others may hit you square in the face, regardless of how the surprises are found, each and every single one of them holds equal importance. None of them will disappoint you.
The emotions that the characters go through in the story can be felt. I actually went through the emotions along with the characters. I did find that a time or two I really wanted to smack a couple of the characters, but they redeemed themselves in the end.
Erin Osborne has done a fantastic job with this book, I highly recommend her as an author and this series, I would recommend that you read it from book one, so you understand the characters better and their position within the the mc. You will also get a better understanding on how the mc works.
