Jake Hogan, millionaire businessman and Pennington success story, knocked Sarah out - well, almost. But he was gentleman enough to escort her home, and so began an enthralling affair.
Though she was incredibly attracted to Jake, Sarah struggled to keep him at arm's length. To his eyes, she was the proud, pretty single mother of a young girl, and she was determined it should continue to appear that way. Getting physically involved with Jake would force her to share her secret - that she'd never been made love to by any man — and would hurt the daughter she so adored...
Sarahs Secret (Pennington #17) Reviews
-
Sarah's secret is that her daughter is her sister.
Jake's secret is that he has an identical twin.
You'd think this soap opera would make for a riveting read but it was just boring. 😕
Does feature CG's charming English village including that lovely pub by a water stream that her characters are forever dining al fresco in. 😝
I will remember this one for the scene where hero shares a couple of asparagus and sausage appetizers with heroine and gets turned on by all that intimate plate sharing. 😁😁😁 -
Wow that was underwhelming
An older book and it was very slow and boring. Make was a nice hero and the heroine was sweet but it was just not there for some reason. Key in the angst for mistaken identity and it still didn't make it any better. I used to love these when I was as young. Times definitely change and this book was very dated. And slow... Did I mention that? -
This is an old review for me. I read this book a year or so ago and for some reason I never marked it off on my goodreads. This is about a woman meeting a man accidentally and them eventually falling in love but the woman is afraid of actually being with him because she has a daughter, whom is not her biological daughter. The woman is actually a virgin and if it gets out and she makes love, she could potentially lose her daughter.
It was a decent read but I didn't find anything that really pulled me into the story in all honesty. I was hoping for more. If we are talking about how it's written, well it wasn't the best I've read but it certainly wasn't the worse. I found the plot kind of stupid to be honest, like I understand that the story was a HUGE cover up but in todays society, that actually doesn't mean much. -
I don't like when the author keeps the Deep Dark Secret (that the pov character would absolutely ponder at some point in the story) a secret from the reader until the character reveals the info to another character. That extra layer of obscurity requires writing around the issue in ways that almost never are good for a story. Anyway, the secret was exactly what I thought it would be, and not particularly interesting. I do appreciate that this guy was genuinely a good-hearted person and not full of hideous misogynistic ideas about women. The woman was fine, the kid sounded the right age.

The book title is somewhat deceiving. Sarah did have a secret but it wasn't a very good one. I thought this would be better. My expectations were higher. It was long and mildly interesting. Not a book I would read again.
P.S. I read the English version, but couldn't find it on Goodreads. -
Silly premise but more readable than many romance novels with more character building. It felt as though the author completed writing about 50 pages before the ending so she had to stuff in a couple ridiculous crises.

Boring
I generally like Catherine George but this was way
to sweet, and weird. Her kid was really her sister. It was to boring I struggle to get through it. Definitely deleting this book from my library. -
3,5/5,0*

I read the English version, just couldn't find it on here.
