Secrets from the Diaries of Tabitha Lenox Welcome to Harmony...

Secrets from the Diaries of Tabitha Lenox Welcome to Harmony... A dreamy New England Coastal town, filled with cobblestone streets, charming colonial homes ... and tumultuous secrets that threaten to tear its families apart. Only Tabitha Lenox knows the intimate details of all their stories. Most of Harmony thinks Tabitha is a "harmless eccentric." But she‘s really an irrepressible sorceress of darkness who‘s been causing the town cauldrons of trouble even before Prudence Standish accused her of witchcraft in 1693 (and Tabitha certainly hasn‘t forgotten!). Based on her secret diaries, Hidden Passions turns back the clock more than twenty years to expose the deepest, darkest secrets of the town‘s most upstanding men and women. Shocking secrets. Sizzling secrets. Shattering secrets. They‘re all here...and more. Enter Harmony, but be very careful if you should encounter a mysterious woman carrying a doll. As she‘s done with Harmony townsfolk for hundreds of years, she may very well look into your heart to see what you truly desire and grant it...for a terribly high price.

I was gifted this book for Christmas, and as you can tell by the "finished" date, I breezed through it. As a fan of the now-cancelled soap, this book brought back loads of memories for me. It was pretty awesome to see the back stories of all the major couples--minus Theresa and Ethan that is--and how they came to the point they were at when the series began. I have to say I sobbed when Ivy and Sam ended. As much as I love Sam and Grace together, Ivy and Sam never really had a fighting chance with
I was gifted this book for Christmas, and as you can tell by the "finished" date, I breezed through it. As a fan of the now-cancelled soap, this book brought back loads of memories for me. It was pretty awesome to see the back stories of all the major couples--minus Theresa and Ethan that is--and how they came to the point they were at when the series began. I have to say I sobbed when Ivy and Sam ended. As much as I love Sam and Grace together, Ivy and Sam never really had a fighting chance with the way things were in Ivy's family. I'd really like to see the author go back and do an alternate universe version of Sam and Ivy, and of Julian and Eve, how things might have been if Ivy hadn't given in so readily and if Julian had fought harder for Eve and their child. I would love to have seen more of the Katherine/Alistair/Rachel saga played out--as the storylines here differed greatly from the soap. More of Sheridan and Luis's past lives would've been nice also. Finally, we saw how Grace got to Sam, and how their romance played out, but I was always curious as to who Faith allowed to romance her, and how Charity lost her father. All in all, it was a great book, well worth the investment. Anyone who was a fan of the soap while it aired should read this, and anyone who is looking to get into the soap (can it be found on youtube?) should definitely read this first.

This book is based on the FABULOUS soap opera PASSIONS. It was written back in the day when the soap was actually good. Remember when Tabitha and Timmy ruled the show and hell was in the closet? Ah, memories...

If you were a fan of the cancelled soap Passions this is a must read. I was obsessed with the show when it was good and when they book came out I had to read it wasn't disappointed at all. I would say Tabitha should write a sequel but when the show stopped being watchable I stopped watching, and tried to keep up but soon didn't care so really I don't know I would read the sequel as I have not watched the end of the show

If you were a fan of Passions, the now canceled soap opera, this book was written to tell the story the show never told. Through Tabitha, you learn about the original main character's early years. I read this 12 years ago and forgot to add it to Goodreads. It's an easy read and fun romp through the town of Harmony. RIP to all my soaps.

Passions! First of all, if you seriously want to like this book, you have to love Tabitha and her imagination (or facts really?!). A great prequel, I guess it helps understand a lot of things which are somehow implicit in the opera. Also, it has a bit of an - America in the 70s flair - and what's not to like about that? Read only if you loved Passions (at least the first two seasons).

A must have for fans of the soap opera Passions. This book serves as sort of a prequel to the main characters that make up the bulk of the storylines.

I didn't realize until I started reading it there had been a soap based on the book...the "lasting power" of the show should have been an indicator of the quality of the book. I am finding myself consistantly disappointed by some of the things I've read recently. It's as if my expectations are unrealistically higher than they should be. I'm being underwhelmed. This has been no exception. The stories of the Cranes, Winthrops, Bennetts, Eve & TC are reasonably well developed but what holds them to

I am finding myself consistantly disappointed by some of the things I've read recently. It's as if my expectations are unrealistically higher than they should be. I'm being underwhelmed. This has been no exception. The stories of the Cranes, Winthrops, Bennetts, Eve & TC are reasonably well developed but what holds them together, Tabitha, is a little anemic. The character of Timmy is a nothing but "empty calories". There are meaningless threads thrown in that have superficial ties to the main story but found myself asking "What was the point?". It makes me wonder sometimes a)How much time is being spent on story developement? b)Are these books being cranked out like a puppy mill? c)How quailified are the editors? It makes me appreciate the true gems.

I got this book when it first came out because I was obsessed with the show at the time. It was written by the character, Tabitha, (actually written by Alice Alfonsi) with the forward written by Timmy. The book tells secrets and back stories of the characters of Harmony. I don't think I would like this book so much if I read it today.

I don't know if this is still any good, considering how closely tied it was to the storylines on Passions that were current when it was published. I haven't read the newer editions, which have updated stories. The writing is actually not so great, but it's purposely trashy, just as you would expect from a soap opera inspired romance novel.

I was a huge fan of the soap Passions and even followed it to the 101 when it was cancelled on basic tv. The book was a disappointment to me. While I found what was written to be very good and informative, I was expecting more. However it was still a good book.

This book uncovers the convoluted backstories of the four main families of Harmony, as told by Tabitha. The Julian/Eve affair alone is gold. It's sad to remember how good a show Passions once was. Sigh.

I haven't read this book since it came out but I came across it unpacking a few forgotten boxes. I remember at the time, I loved it. But since "Passions" has long been cancelled and I don't remember much of that world...I don't want to re-read it and find fault with it.

This book was crazier then the show. Although, I did love how they showed Luis and Sheridan's love story unfold over multiple generations. I may have to read it again. I miss the show.

It was a great book to find out background of the Characters of the soap opera Passions. However, some of the stuff in this book is not jiving with the actual soap now. Sent to a bookcrosser
