Book Description

November 24, 2009
Faith Morgan is struggling with her faith. Years of poor communication and neglect leave her doubting that God will ever fix her marriage. When a coworker accuses her husband, Jonah, of the unthinkable, Faith begins to wonder if she really knows him at all, and if it's truly in God's will for them to stay married.

Pediatric cardiologist Jonah Morgan is obsessed with one thing: his work. A childhood incident cemented his desire to heal children at any cost, even his family, but now he finds himself at a crossroads in his life. Will he continue to allow the past to haunt him, or find healing and peace in a God he shut out long ago?

In her debut novel, Secrets and Lies, Rhonda McKnight delivers unforgettable characters and page-turning drama about a couple whose troubled marriage is pushed to its limits amidst secrets, lies, and an enemy set on revenge.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Page Turner, December 3, 2009
This review is from: Secrets and Lies (Paperback)
It's been awhile since I've enjoyed reading a book this much. Not only were the characters believable, their personal struggles were ones many people can relate to--busy schedules, the need to succeed in the business world, balancing family and work life, feeling appreciated, doubt, family secrets, and keeping a family and marriage together. As each page submerged me more into Faith and Jonah's story I found myself rooting for them and wanting them to figure out a way to work things out. Ms. McKnight did an excellent job of tackling the subject of sexual harassment from the angle of the accuser and the accused. Great storytelling!

5.0 out of 5 stars Staying True to Yourself, November 30, 2009
This review is from: Secrets and Lies (Paperback)
Faith and Jonah Morgan would be considered the ideal couple. Jonah is a well-known pediatric cardiologist and Faith is a stay-at-home mom. After 10 years of marriage, Faith has a feeling that something is terribly wrong. Secrets and Lies by Rhonda McKnight take readers on an emotional ride of trust, faith and love.

Jonah is determined that his family will not have to struggle in the same manner he did as a child. Faith wonders why Jonah has become so distant. She thinks he is having an affair. In trying to uncover the reason, she uncovers family secrets and she begins to wonder about her marriage. After she confronts him, Jonah is accused of sexual harassment. Faith must decide whether she has enough faith and love in her husband to stand by him or walk away.

McKnight has written a very moving story. From the beginning, the reader becomes engrossed in the lives of the Morgan family. The reader can feel the pain, confusion and the lost of faith that Faith had for her husband. From a professional point of view, the legal battles, investigation and allegations of harassment were powerful and realistic. I applaud Ms. McKnight for having written a wonderful story. The story will generate wonderful dialog for any book club.
