Secrets & Lies is an in-depth emotional journey
into the private lives of four central characters that unfolds as a provocative
multi-cultural modern romance with a twist.
Secrets, as they are, rarely devastate the national
population as a whole. They are more often limited to the individual going on
about their lives. That is what this story is about, a group of not-so-ordinary
people, all from very different backgrounds, whose secrets and lies leaves a
trail of honest deception waiting to upset the rituals of their daily
existence.
Kennedy Jordan is a handsome young man with a secret
past and a challenging future that keeps him in the balance between having what
he wants versus what others expect of him.
Camilla Vargas is a beautiful ambitious young woman
with big dreams of success that she has planned to obtain by any means
possible, and vows to not let anything keep her from it.
Ulanda Jefferson is a hip outspoken fashionista with a
fiery attitude. Armored with sharp-wit and an uncensored tongue, she is more
than just a force to be reckoned with.
Bren Searcy is a grown-up lost in transition,
(literally from male to female). There is almost nothing she wouldn’t bear to
hang onto the happiness she has finally found.
In the end, for everyone involved, even the elements of
true confessions gets lost in translation as the explicit details of who they
are brings the group together in a surprising, yet necessary finale that could
change the course of their lives forever…
For
those who have already read Secrets & Lies, author Tracy James Jones has
also published a sequel: Secrets & Lies 2 - A Family Matter.
The
story is also being marketed for film.
The
novel Torn: Sixty Days of Calaboose is a fictional memoir, and a contemporary
psychological drama.
“It is said that a mind is a terrible
thing to waste…
For some, it is also a very terrifying
thing to lose…”
What
could possibly go wrong for a sensitive effeminate male unexpectedly
incarcerated in a room full of unpredictable strangers? For Adrian Bailey, it
was just about everything, and in the midst of fear, lies, prejudice, and
madness, he finds more…
Under
false pretenses, Adrian Bailey finds himself arrested and locked up in the
local county jail for the first time in his life. Despite all the horror
stories he had read or heard of concerning life behind bars, nothing was like
the actual experience. Not only was he utterly devastated and confused over the
situation he was unjustly thrown into, but also lost at the mercy of whatever
actions that could or would be made against him, including prejudice from
someone of his own race. As the madness of his experiences take control, Adrian
fears his only recourse is to succumb to whatever means necessary to survive.
The
traumatic events that occur thereafter would surpass everything Adrian thought
he ever knew about real life. And then he finds what he never expected: an
intense three-way interracial love affair that would test every remaining fiber
of his mental stability and then some. Worst of all, there wasn’t one thing he
could do to stop it. Not one damn thing at all…

ReplyDeleteIntriguing and interesting blog, Tracy. SECRETS AND LIES sounds like a wonderful book. When you say it's being marketed for film exactly what does that mean? We are all putting them out there and I've had some "nibbles" from film companies, but I don't actively market it. I'd love to know what you mean by that. Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Robert, for presenting Tracy in such a fine manner. Best of luck with all your writing, my dear Tracy.
