Secrets in Texas: A Romance with Corrupt and Heavenly Love

Carrie Weaver's Secrets in Texas is a warm, tender romance laced with suspenseful situations. The plot grabs and makes this romance a fast paced read that can not be put down. The characters are multi-faceted and created with psychological depth. This romance explores idea of love both in its corrupted form and its heavenly form and how the two are sometimes confused. Matt Stone escaped the polygamous cult Zion's Gate as a child. Years later, when asked to return by authorities to uncover the secrets and growing threat of this dangerous group, he agrees to the undercover assignment in the hope of seeing the sister left behind. Detective Angel Harrison has been assigned to play the role of the subservient wife in this infiltration scheme. The problem is that she barely survived her first abusive marriage and today Angel is anything but subservient. Can she play her role well enough not to endanger their mission while not endangering her heart and her hard-fought independence? Carrie Weaver does an excellent job of revealing how Zion's Gate corrupts religion and individuals. The personalities and dilemmas of the hero and heroine intrigue and delight. Both Angel and Matt are lovable multi-dimensional characters. The character of Eleanor fascinates and demonstrates Carrie Weaver's skill with both characterization and the cult topic complete with nuances and undercurrents. Carrie Weaver builds her characters without a simplistic good/evil split. Secrets in Texas reveals how women even in the most repressive circumstances can demonstrate power and courage.
