If you\u2019re looking for a dramatic tale about two scandalous females, then MY SECRETS YOUR LIES<\/em> <\/strong>will definitely fit the bill.<\/p>\n

This delicious novel, written by author N\u2019Tyse, is off the chain. It begins with Sand, a hustla willing to do anything to keep her lady Rene satisfied. Both hitting the streets as teens, out in the cruel world, the two became inseparable. Sand was attracted to Rene\u2019s natural good looks and banging body, while Rene was drawn into the security her stud offered. With a little ingenuity, they manage to hold each other down for the long haul.<\/p>\n

Everything changes one day for Rene, though. She feels stifled in her relationship and is tired of being treated differently for being gay. She begins seeing someone new (gasp, a man) behind Sand\u2019s back, spitting more lies than President Bush at a FEMA press conference. Yet, Rene is sure her life would be better with a man as her partner than a woman.<\/p>\n

Predictably, Rene soon learns that the grass isn\u2019t greener on the other side. Despite her issues with being gay, she realizes where her heart truly is \u2013 with Sand \u2013 although it might be too little, too late. Too much has happened between them to go back: infidelity, kidnapping, a baby. Will there be enough love to bring them together?<\/p>\n

N\u2019Tyse kept me mesmerized with the love affair between Sand and Rene. My Secrets<\/em>, while it has some exaggerated drama, is true to the life of some black lesbians. Urban lesbian novels are on the rise in the literary world, and N\u2019Tyse has created one of the better ones. It\u2019s a story I would recommend to both women in the life and straight folks who want to understand what the lifestyle is all about.<\/p>\n

You will undoubtedly be schooled.<\/p>\n
