"SECRETS AND LIES by Marilyn Clay is a terrific book. Four young women come from England on a Bride Ship to marry colonists and help settle the New World. Strangers to one another, each girl brings a secret. After surviving the trip across the sea, they find life in the Jamestown colony is not what they dreamed. SECRETS AND LIES is like stepping through a doorway into history. Ms. Clay has done an incredible amount of research into the period, how it would look and smell and feel if you were truly in 1620s Jamestown. The romances are sweet and touching and made me sigh in pure happiness. SECRETS AND LIES is the kind of book you want to get lost in and are sad when it's over. Thoroughly recommended."- J S May

"SECRETS AND LIES by Marilyn Clay is a book I won with no obligation to give a review. But I must. I've been to Jamestown, researched the early settlers and walked that same plot of ground. This story is so real . . . all my knowledge fit with the people, scenes and events. The story depicts the hardships of the people of the times when they embark to a new land full of unexpected reward and grave disappointment. Sallie Mae is one of the strongest characters and deserves her ending. Prudence surprised me with what she did in a moment of weakness. Faith’s life was changed by the actions of her sister. The culmination of her deeds also surprised me and showed what can happen as we are affected by the actions of those we hold dear. This is historical fiction – some of the best I’ve read. I am thrilled! Marilyn Clay is an author to follow. 5 Stars. Highly recommended." - Mary Deal

"Stay alert, because this plot is sure to hold your attention until the very last page." - Once Upon A Romance

"Both the premise and plot of SECRETS AND LIES is unusual and intriguing. You won't want to put this historical suspense novel down! Highly recommended and suitable for young adult readers." - The Book Lady

"Rich with historical detail, fast-paced and brimming with unexpected twists and turns, SECRETS AND LIES will keep readers guessing until the final page. As in the author's previous Colonial American novel DECEPTIONS, the Jamestown colony springs to life, and in SECRETS AND LIES the shipboard experiences of the four young ladies evoke heartbreaking images. Once again, Marilyn Clay has skillfully crafted a riveting and compelling story!" -John Martinson
