Never Tell Your Secrets is the branded hidden message N'Tyse envelopes within her stimulating fiction tales.

Now 27, N'Tyse's obsession with the pen is better described as the "intimate release" for her imagination where she finds gratifying pleasure cooking up her steamy reads of adult entertainment.
In 2007, N'Tyse ambitiously penned her freshmen novel, 'My Secrets Your Lies'. Upon the release of her first book, N'Tyse discovered that her hobby-writing was no longer just a niche to satisfy that writing crave, but a true talent where her underlying passion awaited.
