Advance Praise for Secrets:

"Each story reveals something different about the human heart and our constant (though, often veiled) desire for truth and virtue.  You’ll find yourself connected to and invested in the characters. With every turn of the page, the Holy Spirit will draw you more deeply into the love and mercy of God.”
~ Mark Hart, Life Teen

"This anthology of short stories for Catholic teenagers is a true literary treasure. It provides genres for every type of reader, each so well written that the reader is invited to fully escape into many different worlds and places. The short stories will take its readers to dystopian Europe, high school hallways, a city block in summer, and a soldier’s medical ward in 16th-century Italy, just to name a few. The characters are diverse, exciting, relatable; their adventures are accessible, mysterious and enthralling. But within these different settings, there is one uniting comfort: God is always there, whether revealed in a desperate prayer to a guardian angel, through pure romantic love, the presence of Christian charity, men and women religious, or within the sacraments. The hope that comes through Catholicism and Jesus prevails in each vignette, and yet there are still heavy doses of drama, suspense and tactful violence. So if your teens seem totally spaced out and properly engrossed, take courage knowing their love of reading and their love of the faith are being fed through these beautiful stories."

"Secrets" is dedicated to Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, a holy young man who died in Italy at age 24 and whose body was found perfectly incorrupt many decades later. As a patron saint of young adults and a heroic model of self-sacrifice in these days when charity has withered and grown cold, this book of stories for teens is humbly and lovingly dedicated to him.
