About the Book:
After many years of
happiness, Moni Badmus's marriage is falling apart. Unwilling to lose her only
child, a self-proclaimed daddy’s girl, to her husband in a custody settlement
she goes along with his suggestion of an unconventional marriage intervention.
Will Moni’s fear of losing what she holds dear take her to dark places she
never imagined she would go? Sam Badmus has lost his thirst for the things of
God. For a while, his extramarital activities seemed to be a cure for his
unsatisfying home life. But soon his risky behavior exacts a steep price and
Sam has to turn to the God he left behind to save his family and maybe even his
life. Debo Ajala and his wife Adele are living the golden life or so it seems.
Debo is a respected church deacon and Adele, a mother to their four adorable
sons. Their lives couldn’t be better, that is until Adele’s feelings for
another member of their church surface. Adele’s confession unleashes a series
of events that Debo never expected. He escapes his troubled life by accepting a
pastoral position in a city on the other side of Canada, but soon his twisted
past catches up with him. In this emotionally charged tale of sacrifice,
temptation, and redemption, two couples learn sin has consequences and there is
no place they can hide from the presence of God.

Reviews
In Secret Places, Kay pens
a unique and redemptive tale about what happens when we bend our values to fit
our carnal desires. You will find yourself in a love hate relationship with
Moni and Sam as they try to pull themselves out of their web of deceit. It kept
me turning pages to find out what’s next. I can’t wait to see more from this
author. ~ Rhonda Bowen, author Get You Good & Under Covers
Secrets Places is an
amazing story of restoration and redemption. I was quickly pulled into Moni and
Sam and Debo’s story and Kay held me there until the very last line. She is an
anointed storyteller and a master at characterization. Readers will not soon
forget this book or God’s message of forgiveness between the pages. ~ Rhonda McKnight, author of An Inconvenient Friend & Romance Slam Jam Award winning novel, Unbreak My Heart.
“This is a quick, easy
read that packs a powerful punch. Author Vivian Kay has bravely shone a
spotlight on subject matter that is not usually covered in works of Christian
fiction and I applaud her for that, because the truth of the matter is, there
are people, Christians, dealing with similar situations who need to know and
understand there is deliverance and healing available for them. This book
clearly illustrated the dangers of letting the tiniest bit of sin creep into
your life and/or marriage, whether in thought or deed. It also nicely
illustrates the saving grace of God. At times, this book made me cringe, made
me angry, and left me in shock–and shouldn’t a good book evoke that type of
emotion? This reboot of the author’s debut novel is definitely worth the read.”
