Editorial Review:
Living with the daily torment of desperately trying to forget her fathers incestuous nightly visits to her bedroom, and a brutal attack she suffered at the hands of her best friends brother, Attorney at Law, Esteria Arie Shaw believed she had finally laid to rest past sins committed against her as a child. However, when her teenaged daughter is killed in a tragic car accident, Esterias life begins to virtually spiral out of control. She goes from believing she had conquered her past and humble beginnings, marrying the man of her dreams and acquiring a life of wealth and splendor, to risking it all through her quest for vengeance against the man she holds directly responsible for her daughters recent death. Moreover, an unwilling participant in the travesty against Esteria, her lifelong friend and business partner Stephanie Denise Boudreaux, born into a life of wealth and privilege, devotes her life to trying to make up for her part in the sins committed against Esteria by her brother. However, as Esteria descends downward Stephanie falls with her, into a life full of death, depression, and compulsive behaviors that threaten their relationship, their law firm, and their very own sanity. As the skeletons begin to tumble from their closets, inflicting more pain and disaster on everyone around them, both women find that they must honestly open up their hearts and souls to each other if they are to have a fighting chance for survival.

Rating:  - A Hot Mess
I am not sure how to describe the debut novel of Letitia Anderson, Sins of the Past. Multiple characters and multiple storylines made it difficult to keep up with all the antics in the lives of attorney at law, Esteria Arie Shaw, and her partner and cousin, Stephanie Denise Boudreaux. These women were involved in everything from sharing men and hiring hit men to falling for men on a whim. The wildest or most inane storyline involved Keith. Keith had been involved in a relationship with Esteria. ... Read More
Rating:  - (RAW Rating: 3.5) - A world too small
SINS OF THE PAST takes readers on an emotional roller coaster ride with two young women who are best friends, who share a law practice and more importantly who share a past.
Esteria believed she had finally lain to rest the stifling memories of her father's incestuous attacks and the brutal rape by her best friend's brother, which produced a daughter. Stephanie always felt responsible for the sins committed against Esteria, by her brother, and is constantly trying to make amends for it. ... Read More

You can't put it down
This is one of the best books I have read this year, and I read a lot. It hooked me from the beginning to the end. 'Sins of the Past,' will keep you wanting to know more and more that you couldn't put it down. I did not finish reading the first chapter when I call my sister who loves to read like me and told her to go get it. Just like me she could not put it down and finished it in two days. I hate to say it but I had to go to the end of the book in the middle. I just could ... Read More
Rating: - never a dull moment
I give this book five stars and a thumbs up. There was never a lule in the book. I read this book twice. It had one event after another that made me wonder what else could happen. It carried me through every emotion and, has the steamy love sences as a plus. I think that it takes a great writier to write about some of the deep subjects in this book and, a brave person to do the hard work that a self published writier has to do.
Rating: - JUST FAB-U-LOUS
I don't know what book you read "self published crud"!, this book was awesome!!! Do not be fooled by the negative comments!! this book was a definite page turner!!!!
