“What’s Done In the Dark” by Avah LaReaux

SECRETS ARE MADE AND KEPT IN THE DARK

On the outside, Marcus and Lynette Clayton appear to be happy. A former NFL player, Marcus has turned to broadcasting to support his wife and two beautiful children. And, although Marcus and Lynette have strayed in the past, they have made the commitment to their family and are making it work. Or, are they?

When Marcus finds out about his son from one of his hook ups, Lynette is thrown into a tail spin. Hurt, she finds comfort in the arms of her lover, Eric. So, what happens when Lynette finds out she’s pregnant, and she doesn’t think it’s her husband’s baby? Only Marcus can learn to forgive and forget. Will he?

This is the first book in the Lost and Found series, and Avah LaReaux does an excellent job relating the interactions of the people in a southern city. The emotions and feelings of the characters are real and raw, making them relatable to the readers.

This quick read is interesting and straight forward. Readers will be wondering what decisions the characters will make, and how that will affect their lives. In the end, it will make readers think before they do anything in the dark. – 4 Stars – Reviewed by Leigh O’Donovan, Authors on the Rise Book Reviews
