My Life

Hidden Secrets

By: L.J. Mitchell

Narrated by: Jason Damron, Emily Damron

A raw, unadulterated view into what it's like to come of age is what the literary world lacks. My Life: Hidden Secrets gives us that and more.

Joseph, Randle, Mark, and Liz are as different as they come, and yet somehow, their lives collide in college. No one knows that the boogeyman stole his innocence, and Joseph wants to keep it that way. Eventually, he confides in his mother something personal and disturbing, and she can only wonder what happened at the Vatican. Before Randle's birth, adultery ruled, and now, his fairy-tale life is in jeopardy. His father and his mentors boldly betray him, and the Islamic religion seduces him to escape in pursuit of what he calls real men.

The kissing bandit Mark flirts his way to rock star status and becomes the envy of every male who walks the halls of his high school. Will the born-again player's legion of soft lips lead him to his demise?

With approval from her parents, Liz embraces her first real relationship. A gourmet dinner and a clear glass of water later, she awakens to stained sheets and bruises on her body, but in no way does she let it end there. Coming of age is no easy feat, and all of them have that one special key to their closet that houses meaningful memories and hidden secrets.
