Jesse Fox was a field reporter, an investigator, for the local news station; he was a playboy who played his game loose and without commitment. Penelope Lane, daughter of Benjamin Lane, a councillor, worked in the administrative department of the same station. Their BIG boss, Bernard King, requested that Penny arrange a “Christmas in July” program which would run for a week and then end in a station-wide ski trip.

Penny was quiet, unadorned with makeup or jewelry, and crazy about Jesse. This was a perfect opportunity for her to get his attention by becoming his Secret Santa. The ups and downs of this on-going relationship is the basis for this wonderful, light-hearted Christmas story. Would Jesse ever find out who his Secret Santa was? Would he ever notice her, the poor little rich girl who had never dressed for attention!

Can You Keep A Secret? is a cute story which is hard to put down; Ms. Rose Middleton has presented a love story which steps out of the box and offers ups and downs in a relationship without creating too much heartache. Both Jesse and Penny have background problems which do not promote instant attraction between the two. Jesse has been known to “love them and leave them” while Penny hasn’t had too much experience with men because of her shy demeanor.

The story is a wonderful holiday pick-me-up! If I tell anymore of the story, it will spoil the surprise. I can assure you that you will be pleased to read this book!
