Book Description

April 1, 2009
The Truth She's Always Hidden. . .

Autumn Evans has a career she loves, a wedding to plan, and a secret that could destroy both. Even though her job--working with underprivileged kids at a Compton school--is deeply fulfilling, Autumn feels something is missing from her life. Her fiancé Matthew, a successful and ambitious surgeon, expects Autumn to assume the role of perfect partner, but lately she feels her sense of control slipping away. . .

May Be The Only Thing To Set Her Free. . .

When a crisis hits and Autumn is physically injured, she returns to her childhood home to heal. There, she slowly begins to question everything she's come to accept about herself, her family, and her man, especially as she watches her mother and sister deal with their own relationship dilemmas. But soon Autumn realizes that she needs to make a choice, between fighting for what she once wanted, or claiming a life that's new and untested. . .

3.0 out of 5 stars Finding Me, May 3, 2009
By 
The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Back to Basics (Paperback)
Life is wonderful for Autumn Evans. She's a fifth grade teacher for underprivileged children and engaged to a successful surgeon. However, Autumn is leading a secret life as a sex addict and this could destroy everything she dearly loves. She tries to gain control of her addiction on her own, but she's losing the battle.

One horrible night, Autumn is attacked and beaten within inches of her life. After being released from the hospital, she returns to her parents' home to recuperate and finds their marriage is headed for disaster because of her mother's secrets and constant meddling. Her sister, Lacy invites Autumn to stay with her for a while, but she is battling her own relationship issues with her husband.

Autumn begins to put the pieces of her life back together after her secret is revealed. She realizes there are things she has to accept about herself and makes a choice of fighting for what she once had or start a fresh new life.

BACK TO BASICS is a story of love, hope, family, degradation and redemption. The storyline is interesting and a topic people don't hear or read much about. The author did a good job with the flow of the book as I finished reading it in one day. However, I would like to have seen more character development and a detailed beginning of Autumn's sexual addiction and recovery. This is my first time reading a book by Phillips, and I'm looking forward to reading more of her books.
