Praise for The Secret Watch

“WOW - In her first effort as a published author, Lisa Robbin Young stepped up to plate and hit it outta' the park. A 'can't-put-this-book-down' story combined with success wisdom of the ages. Could there be anything better? For those who love both reading and learning about success... probably not. My only problem with the story is that it had to end. I actually found myself reading slower just to make it last longer.
- Bob Burg, coauthor of The Go-Giver & author of Endless Referrals, www.burg.com
