The Book The Secret Reviews

I bet you’ve heard the story about the secretary falling head over heels for her boss; that’s me, but what happens when you have unforgettable with someone without knowing he is your boss? That’s me; I got invited to a party that ended up being a birthday party with a dungeon theme, weird, I know, tell me about it, but I finally let my hair down and enjoyed exploring my sexuality with the most intense men I have ever met. My boss, Richard Ashford, Mr. Billionaire CEO himself, he is intense, dominating, cocky, and arrogant, but he makes me feel like the most important woman in the world. Behind closed doors, he is the most fantastic lover. I wish the world could see him the same way I do. I am not ready for dating after everything I have been through. But he is. He wants to show Manhattan’s elite that I am his, but I don’t want to be in the spotlight. I like being anonymous. His life is covered by every newspaper and magazine. That’s what happens when you own most of New York’s media companies.

Lumaki si Celestine Navarro sa bahay na kailanman ay hindi naging tahanan. Sa ilalim ng pang-aapi ng kanyang madrasta na si Margarita at ng maldita niyang stepsister na si Veronica, natutunan niyang maging matatag, tahimik, pero palaban. Isang araw, bigla siyang pinapirma sa isang arranged marriage contract—isang kasal na hindi niya maintindihan. Wala siyang ideya kung sino ang lalaki sa papel, at tanging sinabi lang ng abogado ay: “Mas gusto niyang manatiling pribado. Pero simula ngayon, nasa ilalim ka ng kanyang proteksyon.” Ang lalaking iyon ay si Adrian Cruz—isang malamig, makapangyarihang Bilyonaryo at CEO sa isang malaking kumpanya na sanay makuha ang gusto niya. Sa harap ng mundo, isa siyang taong walang emosyon at walang kahinaan. Ngunit sa likod ng kanyang katahimikan, may lihim siyang dahilan: minsan niyang nasaksihan kung paanong hinamak si Celestine ng sarili nitong pamilya. At mula noon, hindi na siya mapalagay. Tahimik niyang inayos ang kasunduan ng kasal—isang paraan para masiguro na walang sinumang makakasakit kay Celestine muli. Habang patuloy siyang binabastos at minamaliit ng mga Navarro, patago namang nakamasid sa kanya ang lalaking handang ipaglaban siya… kahit hindi pa niya kilala. Hanggang isang gabi, nakatanggap siya ng mensahe mula sa hindi kilalang numero: “Hindi mo na kailangang harapin sila mag-isa.” —A.C. Hindi niya alam, ang lalaking iyon ay ang mismong asawa niyang hindi pa niya nakikita—ang lalaking tahimik pero mapanganib magmahal. At kapag dumating ang araw na mabunyag ang katotohanan, malalaman ng lahat… na ang babaeng minamaliit nila ay asawa ng pinakamakapangyarihang lalaki sa lungsod.

But the last thing I expected was to be thrown in the deep end, fighting for everything I loved." Emiliana was moving on from what she lost, her safety, security, and the love. But what happens when her bodyguard comes back and shows her that the life her family had protected her from, is the life she fits into?
