The Secrets He Kept by Wendy Miller is a suspenseful romance that starts with Meadow's husband's death. Meadow thought their marriage was good, but after his death she discovers that he had many secrets. Secrets like unexplained charges on his credit card, a woman’s name in his little black book and, most intriguing of all, a secret bank account. So Meadow turns to her husband's business partner, Stetson, for help. Together they search for clues about the mysterious circumstances. The more they uncover, the more they are forced to see that they could be in serious danger. It also forces them to look at the way they feel about each other, which has been warming up ever since they started spending more time together. While their attraction is heating up, the danger around them is heating up, too. Can they solve the mystery in time? Or will Meadow end up with the same fate as her now dead husband?

The Secrets He Kept is a nice mystery that revolves around a premise most people would never want to experience -- learning some terrible news about a spouse after they have passed away. But those secrets are what make Wendy Miller's story interesting and keep the reader turning the pages. We want to know what happened to Meadow's husband and why he kept a secret bank account. These secrets drove the story in a nice way and the romance was a good addition to the plot. Good job!
