At long last, the Reverend Curtis Black appears to be
living the straight life. The all-too-human preacher is a
bestselling author now, and he and his wife, Charlotte, are
raising two adorable children. But the ever-suspicious
Charlotte doesn't trust that Curtis has put his womanizing
past behind him. While he's on the road promoting his
latest book, she knows that there just needs to be one
extra-devoted fan in his flock for him to stray.
Secrets and lies . . .
Still, Charlotte is no angel herself, and she's been
keeping plenty of secrets from Curtis while he's been away.
For one thing, their daughter, Marissa, is behaving
bizarrely, reminding Charlotte a bit too much of the man
with whom she had an affair five years ago—an affair Curtis
won't let her forget.
Then there are the disturbing visits from her so-called
brother-in-law, a man once involved with drugs and the law.
Curtis has forbidden the family to see him, but the guy
simply keeps turning up on Charlotte's doorstep no matter
how hard she tries to keep him away.
Charlotte believes with all her heart that things will be
better once Curtis comes home.
Love and lies . . .
But Charlotte should be careful what she wishes for. She
thinks love is enough to untangle the web of lies she and
Curtis have woven for themselves. What she doesn't know is
that when her husband finally returns, she'll have some
tough decisions to make if she wants to save her soul and
salvage her marriage.
