Secrets of the Apple by Paula HiattMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A slow, drama filled, romantic story of two lives coming together. Paula Hiatt is a true poet, meaning she put words to motion in this novel and produced a really great story. Secrets of the Apple transcends two races and two cultures. It is like that perfect cup of coffee, separately the ingredients are subpar but mixed together in a precise timely fashion it makes the perfect blend; the perfect cup. This novel follows the business adventures of Ryoki esteemed, wealthy and attractive business man and Kate, the attractive American assistant. The two backgrounds are deeply intertwined from youth but can they overcome their differences culturally?
Hiatt plays the story out in a series of events that span multiple countries and languages. It is a breath of fresh air to read basically the adventures of Kate and see Ryoki not take life and those around him so seriously. He is a young successful man and Kate might be the right person to loosen him up. Both characters have shared their respective bad relationships that have harden them and stopped them from truly loving another. Hiatt places the reader on a rollercoaster ride of adventures and emotions in this novel.
Secrets of the Apple is a quick romantic read and easy to follow. Hiatt definitely produced a good book and I cannot wait to read more of her work.
