A brilliant read! Jane Fallon at her best. The plot and characters felt really fresh and it had all the hallmarks that makes a top Women's Fic read.

A brilliant book which I could not put down. Very early on I was thinking how clever I was for working it all out – what a fool I was! Believable characters, twists and turns and a highly satisfactory ending – what’s not to love?

This book really sums up the saying of 'who needs enemies when one has friends like this'. A very enjoyable, brilliant and well written novel. The twists and turns certainly keep the reader captivated right up until the end. The book takes office politics to another level, beginning with the low level bickering and sniping that is present in all office environments, it quickly escalates. The characters are well drawn and one can empathise with the central character totally especially when she does rash things which she immediately regrets and suffers guilt pangs. There is a touch of comedy throughout, especially couple Dee and Gavin who decide to bring amateur sleuthing to the story, just wonderful, but this also just brings the story down to earth making it so plausible and makes one look at how one interacts with so called friends. How it is easy to let slip little bits of information that could be used against one and a small drink can let loose tongues that give away more than they intend.

Loved it and would thoroughly recommend it

Not my usual genre but this book had me gripped throughout. Will be looking out for more of the same!

Holly has her dream job, on probation at first, but she's sure to succeed. Isn't she?
Well not if her so called best friend has her way. Roz wanted the job also, didn't tell Holly she was applying and hates it that she didn't get it. Her fantasy life becomes more and more implausible and you wonder that she takes anyone in with her stories.
A nasty chain of inter company emails apparently sent from Holly's computer, makes everyone suspicious and angry. Best friend Roz plays the innocent, even blaming another colleague.
Until things begin to unravel.
I have to say that I did suppect Hattie as she was an obvious person in the right place to access Holly's computer. The help that Holly finally gets from unexpected people in the company is comforting and the denouement is cleverly written.
I thought Holly was extremely forgiving!
Thanks to Net Galley , Penguin and Michael Joseph for this reveiw copy, which i enjpyed reading.

I love Jane Fallon and eagerly await each new book! Every one she writes seems to get better and better and Tell Me a Secret is no exception. I get totally involved with the characters and their predicaments. In this story the main character, Holly, is being dragged through the mud metaphorically and her name is being discredited with the intention of not having her temporary promotion confirmed. For some time she knows who is responsible for the events that portray her in a bad light but cannot work out how it is being done. There are some lovely characters who help track down the culprit and some good twists and turns along the way. It's a bit like a whodunnit without a murder! I liked the additional storyline of the relationship with her daughter as well. Once again the heroine is forgiving of her protagonist and you feel she could have been more severely punished for her crimes.
The real measure of a good book is when you are desperate to find out what happens but you don’t want the book to end. That’s exactly how I felt about this book. Loved it and can’t wait for the next one!

I've read three other titles by this author and enjoyed them all. This one was as good, if not better, (hence the five stars this time).

The premise is simple, the characters are extremely engaging and the pace flows nicely along. Don't expect anything too complex but it is a page turner. I'm sure some readers might find the antagonist a bit unbelievable but this still makes for a compelling story. I couldn't put the book down which is something of a rarity for me.
I think it's safe to say I've become a fan of Jane Fallon and I look forward to her next title.

Try this one, it's a lot more sophisticated in style and story telling than many others and if you are a fan of women's fiction that is not so much on the heavy side then I think you will enjoy this as much as I did.

I have read a couple Jane Fallon’s previous novels and this one is a cracker. It is a story about the difference between true and not so true friendships.

Holly has just been promoted and is delighted to be facing a new challenge. There are those at work who also applied for the position so she understands there will be issues to deal with. However, she doesn’t expect her best friend, Roz, at work to behave the way she is. This is the woman she has told all her secrets to.

Holly needs to rent out a room in her apartment, as she wants to help her daughter, who is pregnant, with her finances. She is under much stress and strange things begin to happen at work, which she seems to have no control over.

Her friend outside of work, Dee together with her husband, try to find out who is causing this and how.

Thank you to NetGalley, Penguin UK, Michael Joseph and Jane Fallon for my ARC in return for my honest review.

Brilliant read and highly recommended.

I read this book so quickly with no idea what was happening at all. Really strange and bizarre but brilliant. So addictive - you just need to read to the end as fast as you can to find out what's really going on.

Absolutely loved this book. Relatable characters, fast paced with twists didn’t see coming. Also love the fact the ending all ties up & all questions answered.

This is my first Jane Fallon book and I liked it, Holly has recently been promoted at work and discovers that someone is out to get her. A whole tangle of lies are uncovered along the way. This is a fast paced story with lots of good characters and I liked trying to work out who it was and what would happen next.

The work place is set on a TV show and Holly's team are the script writers and this added to the soap opera feel to the story.

A good read if you want something fast paced that has a satisfying ending.

When Holly gets promoted at work she can’t wait to get stuck in but someone has it in for her, making important paperwork go missing and mysterious emails being sent from her account that she knows she definitely did not send. Holly confides in her best work friend Roz who is supportive despite her glamourous busy life with her high flying husband.
Things take a turn when Holly finds out that Roz has been lying about her husband and actually lives in a run down flat in London not the millionaire mews house she claims.
Holly’s best friend Dee goes on an undercover mission to find out the truth about Roz.
A great book with a few twists that you will probably see coming but overall well written and a nice easy read.

I really enjoyed this book, found more believable as I had a colleague who was a compulsive liar and made up a whole life!! I loved Holly and how she decided to fight back with the help of her friends who were very amusing

Tell Me a Secret is set in the script department of a well established soap and focuses on the promotion of Holly, a single mother who put her career on hold to raise her daughter. Best friends with Roz, together they are a force to be reckoned with, and when Holly gets the promotion she’s been waiting for, Roz should be happy for her...but is she?
Tell me a Secret, is a light hearted tale of friendship, trust and rivalry and of course secrets.

Loved this book. A bit slow in the beginning for me, but then I couldn't put it down. Great observation of all the characters, I think I have worked with a few of them. I will be looking for another one by this author.

For whatever reason this book fell totally flat for me, I couldn't get on with how silly everything seemed. Unfortunately even for some light reading this just wasn't for me at all. There were a few interesting moments but for the most part I found the characters annoying.

What a book!! I absolutely loved it. I connected immediately with Holly and adored See. The story was amazing, I literally could not put it down. It had my heart racing a few times and although I guessed the twist it still had me doubting myself. It's the kind of book I'd definitely read again, and I'd 100% recommend it

Another gem from Jane Fallon, this book is a delight to read. It tells the story of single mother, Holly, who has to deal with something awful going on in her workplace - who is responsible? Who can she trust? Well written, easy to read, intriguing, it will resonate with readers regarding their own work situation to a greater or lesser degree in lots of cases. Just the right kind of easy-Reading bookmfor this time of year.

DNF. Unusual feedback from me but it moved so slowly and I just couldn’t care about the protagonist. I realised I just wasn’t that bothered about who was tormenting her.. it is probably an ok thriller, but not fir me

Holly has just landed the job of her dreams and everyone seems happy for her but are they? Who is jealous and prepared to stop at nothing. Who can she trust? Who didn't want her to get the job?
Everyone is under suspicion and what can she do?
