Secret Brother is Book 3 of The Diary series. Corrine and Garland are finally wed, but she's so self-absorbed that she doesn't even notice that Garland is controlling her and that enormous house has more secrets than you can imagine. As Garland eventually has her around just to look pretty, she begins having difficulty controlling their son's tandrums, she becomes jealous of Dora. It seems that everyone knows about these secrets except Corrine.

After the death of VC Andrews, I thought that no one could replace her or have a writing style similar to hers. But Secret Brother was a very happy surprise. I was drawn in from the very beginning, this was a fantastic novel. It is a wonderful addition to the Flowers In The Attic series. ( )

I don't understand some of the comments on here. This was a good stand alone book, but it needs another book after it to give more information on the Count and his life after he grows up. I still have more questions, but I don't think it was as bad as everyone made it out to be. I think he left it open to write another book, but the reviews are so bad I am not surprised he didn't write another one. I wish he would. Maybe the Count could meet with Kristen and they could both talk about what they know. Maybe it would help them out together. ( )
