KEEPING SECRETS IN SEATTLE is the story of Violet Murphy.  She is best friends with Gabe Parker.  They have been best friends since they were kids.  They tell each other everything, no secrets.  Imagine her surprise one Christmas Eve when Gabe  announces he is getting married to his girlfriend Alicia.  He never mentioned it to Violet.  In fact, they had just broken up a few weeks before.  Vi is so sick over this announcement, she rushes out of the Parker's home so no one can see her pain.  She is hiding the fact that she has been in love with him since she met him.  

After weeks of brewing and sulking, Vi's room mates make her get up and go out. It is time to get over Gabe and let the past go.  While she is it she meets Landon, a hot carpenter who is very taken with Vi.  Vi is torn between her feelings for Gabe and the new feelings she is having for Landon.  Even though Gabe is engaged to be married to Alicia, Vi almost feels like she is cheating on him and their friendship.  Landon is perfect for Vi but she just can't let go of Gabe.  Also, while she is getting to know Alicia,  she finds out some very troubling things about her.  Now what should she do? Should she tell her best friend about what she knows or just let it go.  She decides to ignore it and move forward with Landon.  Well, Gabe doesn't like the new Vi, and this is where things get very interesting.

KEEPING SECRETS IN SEATTLE is an awesome romantic story.  It is also very funny with the bantering between Gabe and Vi.  They know each others thoughts before they even say them.  I was hooked on their story from page one and was so wrapped up in their relationship.  Once you pick up this book you will not be able to put it down. This was my first Brooke Moss book, but now I'm on a quest to find the rest. Great job Brooke. KEEPING SECRETS IN SEATTLE is one of my favorites for 2013!
