In love with the same face that haunts me…

The falling leaves of autumn are like the deceit in my family lineage. Closing the door on the infinite cold—winter blossoms into the spring of new beginnings. In the next season of my life, I’m mending the pieces back together. Opening myself up, I even begin to date, which is a big step for me.

About to start college, I bump into someone from my complicated past, and my heart is torn. The dilemma I struggle with: Do I let other people’s opinion define who I am? I must decide if I’ll push through the ridicule and pave my own path. Could the face that’s scorned me be the key to my resolve? I’ll never know if I take the easy way out.

I’ve unlocked my darkest secret only to have it return to torment me. As the thorns of his obsession encompass me, I discover I’m part of a twisted ploy. If I don’t figure a way out of this predicament, then the life I’ve known may cease to exist.

BLOG TOUR & GIVEAWAY ~ Scorn of Secrets by B. Truly

Scorn of Secrets
B. Truly
Publication date: April 27th 2021
Genres: Coming of Age, Romance, Young Adult

I must keep it locked away—the memory of my darkest secret….

When the rising tides of my life peak, I’m left struggling with the currents of the storm. The first dilemma is my dad’s gambling debt. Mama bounces back quickly from the ramifications it causes. She proves this by getting a new man. Her Rico Suave is just the tip of the iceberg—she moves us across state to live with him and his two sons.

My outgoing, older sister fits right in—she’s the total opposite of me. I am Madison Guillory, the shy, quiet type. Taught to make the best of even the worst situations, I contemplate giving my new family a chance.

Living with my future stepbrothers is interesting, to say the least. They’re like night and day. I have more in common with the laid-back brother, and we become instant friends. I’m adjusting to Taylor High, and the arrogant brother is even starting to grow on me. Maybe everything will work out after all.

My life finally seems to be falling into place until a dreadful night shatters my dreams. My world is flipped upside down because of the consequences I must now bear.

The memories of that night lurk in the shadows to torment me. If I think of what happened, I’ll succumb to my fear. His face has scorned me. No one will believe me if I confess, not even my own sister. I hold the key to my darkest secret, desperate to keep it locked away.

Chapter 6

​Dariel comes over to visit. She helps me pack the remainder of my room. The beige walls are bare, and my closet is empty. Our plane leaves in three days. Moving to Texas is like a time bomb ticking. The explosion will be the catastrophic change of my life. 

Dari blows out her breath. “I still can’t believe you’re moving to Houston.”

“That makes two of us.”

“This sucks. What will I do without you?”

“We can text and call each other every day.”

“Yeah, but it won’t be the same. You’re holding up fairly well, considering. This is a drastic change.”

“Looks can be deceiving. I wish I could crawl under the bed and never come out.”

“How weird do you think it will be moving in with his two teenage sons?”

“Very. I’ve thought about asking Gigi to live with her.”

“You should ask her.”

“I don’t want to be a burden. I’ll just have to tough it out in Houston.”

“I don’t understand your mom. Your dad recently died, and she’s moved on so quickly.”

“I’ve been trying to figure it out myself, and I’ve come up blank.” I shrug. “It doesn’t matter. Her mind is made up.”

“How long has your mom known this guy—like three days?”

I snort. “You might as well say that.”

“It’s kinda scandalous for her to have another man at record speed after being married for so long.”

“It’s like Mama thinks she’s a damsel in distress and he’s her knight in shining armor. He’s swept her off her feet.”

Dari raises her eyebrows. “He’s loaded?”

“That’s what I’m getting from what she’s told us. Mama bought Tanya and me new bedroom suites from an expensive store online. She flat out told us she was broke, so there’s no way she could’ve paid for it.”

“You think she’s using him for his money?”

“Maybe … I mean, he’s nice looking and they seem into each other. It’s just too soon to be shacking up.”

“So, basically, he’s loaded and easy on the eyes. Sorry to say this, but your mom seems like the damsel in distress type.”

“I wish there were another way. I’m really going to miss you, Dari.”

“I’m gonna miss my best friend, too.”

Dari’s right. She’s more than my cousin, we’re besties.

Her cell phone pings, and she reads the text. “My mom says she’s on her way.”
