Really amazing story about what love can do with us. I like how characters are so real and so vivid, you drown in their story. Natasha is so strong woman and I admire by her. She decided to save her lover despise the fact that they are parted the life gave her to be with another man and forget all her sorrow. But she chooses the love!
Elsa Joseph's novels keep the pages turning.! The plot lines are fantastic, the characters seem real and believable and the writing is rich with description. The Best Kept Secret is a novel with mystery, thriller and romantic elements.
Elsa Joseph is a smart writer. I definitely enjoyed reading her books :)
Elsa Joseph does great work depicting the conflict Natasha is feeling over the two loves in her life. Her writing is original and well worth the read.
Refreshing to read a novel written in Third Person. Natasha is someone you can root for. As for London, what a gorgeous landscape to set
your story in. Been there, so the descriptions bring back fond memories. Good pacing, smart dialogue.

The Tenth Caller Michael Bronte
He’d been the shock-jock extraordinaire, but it had been quite the fall. Blackballed and forgotten, he was doomed to the graveyard shift on a godforsaken AM station where the highest rated program was the tornado report.
At night, however, the mega-signal of the Midwest can be heard for a thousand miles, and in the wee hours the depressed and depraved gather on Gulliver’s broadcast doorstep to confide in his wisdom. Some call it a cult following; others call it a radio freak parade. Gulliver takes the tenth call, but the caller isn’t interested in the chicken dinner prize. He’s into murder, and the killing goes back decades. The questions are: who is he, and how is he always the tenth call?

MURDER IN MOSCOW: THE OBLAST COURT TRIAL
A handyman shoots and kills teenager stealing apples from his orchard in 1958.
He says it was an accident. Convicted, he’d normally get three years in prison.
He’s charged with murder from ‘base motives” with “evil intent.”
That charge carries 10 years.
But the judge has another punishment in mind.
What’s going on here? That’s a moral, not a legal charge.
Is it an over-zealous judge or a Kremlin-ordered Stalinist show trial?
Does the prosecutor want to get a career victory?
Is it jurisprudential collusion or madness?
The accused could get the death penalty in this deadly game.

Surrender (a preview) Chris Baum
A hairy bachelor (Bigfoot) decides to set off on a dangerous quest to find his long lost kin. He knows the journey will be fraught with danger because he knows he and his family are on the endangered list—a constant struggle to survive. But like an adage he once read in a book, “nothing ventured, nothing gained,” he is steadfast to not give up on his goal. Fortunately, and unexpectedly, he gets some assistance from two animals, one of whom is far bigger in his faith than his physical size. PoBo encounters many obstacles along the way, and his own faith is tested repeatedly as time runs out to fulfill his quest. What he at first thinks is the true meaning of his journey becomes redefined.
When we’re broken and we realize we are not in complete control, it's time to SURRENDER.

The Brothers Michael Bronte
It was their thirtieth reunion at John Adams College and the brothers of Zeta Chi had come in from all over for the momentous event. When one of the brothers was found dead and the authorities refused to investigate due to lack of any evidence indicating foul play, the brothers said, “If you won’t investigate, we will.” Who knew it would turn into a murder investigation involving international terrorists, the CIA, the police, and our own U.S. Treasury anticrime unit called FinCEN.
