Knock-offs
It doesn't get any better than this for trust fund baby Caroline Y. Isaacs, known to the viewing public as Linney from Top Of Da Charts. She's one of the hottest vee-jays in video music television. Luxury cars, beautiful people, tourists and expensive stores are just a slice of the limelight.
Top Of Da Charts is under pressure to keep their show PUMPING for the summer. While working on various scenarios, Mari Colando, an intern, wafts in with fresh ideas and is considered an immediate plus to the team, or is she?
Scheming, plotting, risking everything to dish the latest gossip, Linney is having the time of her life traveling cross country in a tricked out RV with her crew. Though she does get semi-lonely, she may have found a few caption catching distractions of her own.
Every Woman's Got A Secret starts off with an obvious girl fight and reverses for readers hitchhiking in search of the details that caused the unraveling of a friendship in the workplace. I liked, but did not love it and felt as if this secret was predictable and flawed. Stalking, rumors, gossip, hidden agendas, mystery, deception, hidden cameras along with cameo roles of Sasha Borianni as well as Tiffany Johnson sums up Every Woman's Got A Secret. Where is the Brenda L. Thomas who wrote THREESOME or appeared in FOUR DEGREES OF HEAT? That chick had action, drama and suspense! This as of late Brenda has barely been able to capture my attention.

Every woman's got a secret by Brenda L. Thomas was very entertaining.
Caroline Issac was the head woman in charge and needed to boost her ratings. This is when this lady Mari(intern)comes with this great ideal to take the show on the road. Mari wins Caroline over with this great ideal and from there Mari puts Caroline through the ringer.
This book was very well written with the great development of the characters and the scenes. Along with the twists and the turns that made it very unpredicatable.

The Road Trip
Linney is a typical black 24 year old female spoiled in her ways with more than she can handle. She thought she had it all and had the perfect life. Her man, Julius, is handsome, smart, and most important, wealthy.
Linney is the host of a hot hip-hop show "Off Da Charts" where she engages in meeting hot new stars and rating the hottest music videos. In need of a spark for ratings and to make more money for her company, she hires Mari, her intern for the summer, to bring new ideas and assist her throughout the summer. For promotional purposes, Linney decides to take her show on the road for the summer. She then sees and does things that she never imagined. Will she be able to maintain her reputation for her viewers? We know every woman's got a secret, but will Linney's secrets be revealed during this road trip?
I give Brenda three stars for this book. I think it could have been a little bit more exciting in addition to some twists to spice up the end. I will continue to read Brenda's books, because she has the ability to create some awesome books. "Threesome," "Fourplay," and "The Velvet Rope" were great!
