Paige Donahue has always lived in her sister Camille's shadow. As children, Camille had the grades, the friends, and their parents' love, while Paige was left with hand-me-downs and criticism. Now, as adults, Camille lives an idyllic life with her husband, Pierce, and her two perfect children in a beautiful home, while Paige is stuck in a small condo with bills she can't afford to pay. But no more. With seeds of doubt planted in both Camille's and Pierce's minds, Paige's plan to steal her brother-in-law starts to work. But when he reveals his decision to make his marriage work, a desperate Paige moves from envy to madness. What results from her dangerous scheme is something no one could have imagined.

Story
Denise and Derrek Shaw are the perfect American couple. Happily married for 15 years, they have a wonderful daughter, Mackenzie, successful careers, and a beautiful house in a posh Chicago suburb. They are attractive, respected...and hiding a shocking secret: a dangerous addiction to drugs. It started innocently enough. Denise occasionally used prescription drugs to help her deal with the long hours and demanding nature of her job. Derrek, also under pressure at work, began using cocaine socially with some of his colleagues. They can quit whenever they want to. At least, that's what Denise would like to believe....

Unbelievable plot from the very beginning
Would you try another book from Kimberla Lawson Roby and/or Micaila Millburn?
Probably not. The storyline was pretty unbelievable from the beginning, so it was hard to really get into. I was really disappointed by the religious angle inserted at the end of the story. If this is the author's MO, I definitely won't listen to them again.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
After listening to the book, no.

Jaw dropping!!!
What made the experience of listening to Secret Obsession the most enjoyable?
I always wanted to see what Paige was going to do next.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Paige because she was so obsessed with her sister's husband that she would do anything to have him.
Have you listened to any of Micaila Millburn’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No not yet.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes I was sad because Paige was ruining her sisters life but I felt sorry for her because she just wanted someone to love her.
Any additional comments?
This was a very good book. I think that the narrator did a very good job telling the story. I want to read other stories that she has narrated.

Delusional
I don’t understand how the younger sister thought she was going to ride off in the sunset with her sister’s husband. I also felt like the older sister was to forgiving. It was also repetitive. How many times did I need to hear how Paige was jealous & hater Camille? Maybe, I’ll listen to it again, but I must say, I didn’t like it.

At first I was excited about this book because she is one of my favorite authors. Unfortunately, as the book progressed, it became boring and predictable. Overall, I recommend this read to others

Best out of many
I've read plenty of books by this author and she has really outdone herself. I love how redeemable Pierce is and it reminds me that Christ really does still create MEN with hearts after His own. Even Camilla's love endures for them both. Gives me hope & reminds me that the goodness God gives is unbreakable & how much I love my husband.
