Review of Secret Voices by Lynn Donovan

Secret Voices, by Lynn Donovan, is the third book in the Spirit of Destiny series.
Keisha Moore has heard voices in her head since she was a child. Instinctively, she knew people would call her crazy if she ever mentioned them. They remain a secret, a secret intertwined with her mother and father’s past. However, when the life of her fiancé, Clifford, is threatened, only the voices offer the help she desperately needs. Will anyone believe the voices are real?

Secret Voices is a Christian paranormal. Many Christians will be uncomfortable with the “voices” communicating with the main character. Others will realize this is paranormal/fantasy and is not to be taken literally. I read it as a paranormal and do not expect more realism than I would find in a book about vampires, zombies, or werewolves. So, the strange voices did not bother me.

However, an aspect that did disturb me was the characters’ attitudes toward abortion. It seemed as if some were advocating it, one so far as seeing it as God’s will (if I remember correctly). I’m not sure that was what Ms. Donovan was trying to convey. If she meant that we should forgive and forget the past, I wholeheartedly concur. Honestly, I do not think that the author is a proponent of abortion, although it may seem that way at first glance.
The characters were well developed. Clifford is not your normal male love interest, and his uniqueness was intriguing. Overall, I enjoyed Secret Voices.
