Melody law is a Washington, DC local and glad mother of two. She presently dwells in radiant Southern California. Melody went to the University of the District of Columbia where she got a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. She is the co-founder of an organization, Urban Cowgirls, which provides education on horses and emotional therapy to women. Melody is an active member of California Partnership to End Domestic Violence (CPEDV), the American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA), and the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADC).
Melody’s debut book, Charlie’s Secret, is an inspirational story and is based on true events in the author’s life, which makes the book more spellbinding and intriguing. The characters, emotions and pain described in the book were believable. The female protagonist of the story ‘Charlie’ is married for past 25 years and guarding a terrible secret. She is married to monstrous and dangerous narcissist man who has trapped her with his lies and deceit. She is in an abusive marriage in which she not only bears domestic violence but also raise her children all alone. The story revolves around Charlie and how she escapes from her abusive husband.
Charlie’s Secret is an excruciating story which many readers would find relatable. Readers could relate with the violence, physical and mental abuse endured by Charlie. But hopefully the book encourages readers to how to toss out from a toxic relation and evolve self-love. It is a motivational story with many valuable lessons.

I was not impressed with this book at all. I only got half way thru it and had to quit. The story does not ring true and from what I read, things were not so bad that it wasn't even mentioned. I didn't want gory details, but when it is fluffed away it makes you wonder. I felt there could have been more depth to the characters and story line. I am sure there was abuse, but the story could of withstood some great editing.

Excellent Debut
This book was very thoughtfully written and left me with a feeling of hope. Melody Law has A real talent for storytelling. I am looking forward to future stories about the misadventures of the fabulous five!
