On the surface, Sloane has the perfect life—an adoring husband, a precocious daughter, and enough financial security to be a stay-at-home mom. Still, she can’t help but feel as though something—or someone—is missing....
Hillary has a successful career and a solid marriage. The only problem is her inability to conceive. And there’s a very specific reason why....
As the wild-child daughter of old family money, Georgina has never had to accept responsibility for anything. So when she realizes an unexpected life change could tie her down forever, she does exactly what she’s always done: escape.
When these three women unite for a three-week-long summer vacation in beautiful Lake George, New York, even with the idyllic location as their backdrop, the tensions begin to mount. And they quickly discover that no secret can be kept forever.... (Synopsis courtesy of Amazon.)
It’s unfortunate that in today’s age many women keep things they are struggling with a secret. The longer we keep secrets, the more likely they will fester inside, and secrets always have a way of coming out. Perhaps it’s because women are ashamed of them? Or don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings? Either way, they only hurt themselves in the long run. Each of the three main characters--Georgina, Sloane and Hillary--has a secret. These secrets are what shapes and defines each of their personalities.
I liked how one of their story lines didn’t end wrapped up in a beautiful bow. It made it realistic in this manner.
Those Secrets We Keep is a story about friendships, how precious they can be, and how if we don’t nurture them, they can be lost in an instant. A quick-paced, perfect beach read.

If I told a secret, then it wouldn't be a secret anymore. My favorite beauty product would be lipgloss. I can't stand to not have any one.
Gotta have lipstick!
I have a really big secret that my family will be really excited about but I can't share it just yet! I also love lipgloss!
I am a lipgloss and/or lipstick fanatic! And these lips won't let the secret out!!! :)
I never read Gone With The Wind. I have been reading avidly since I was about 5. As a child, I knew my librarian better than I knew my parents. I probably had a book stashed under my wedding dress. What's even worse is that I own the book. It is sitting on my shelf even as we speak. I don't know why. I hear the gasps from here.

Sorry, it wouldn't be a secret if I spilled here. My daughter uses make-up for performances. I would love to give her some great products. I just use moisturizers and lipstick or balm.
