Mom's Choice Award-winning author Jill Ammon Vanderwood presents her fourth book in The Path You Choose series, where the reader is the main character and will be encouraged to make choices at regular intervals.

Keeping Secrets begins with the main character having a slumber party at her home. She asks her guests to be sworn to secrecy as each friend reveals their deepest secrets.

This book explores what you can do if one friend is a witness to a crime; another is depressed or suicidal; one girl's parents are going through a divorce; someone is addicted to drugs, and another friend has experienced sexual abuse. Your secret could be that you struggle to bring up your grades in school.

All the girls are nervous when it's their turn to tell their secret. However, one friend, Kaylee, gets up and runs from the house, saying she will never tell. Her action leads her friends to guess what her secret might be.

Is a promise a promise, no matter what? Are there some secrets that you cannot keep?
