Publisher's summary

Best friends Charlotte and Janine have serious problems with their love lives. Charlotte's husband, the flashy preacher Curtis Black, may keep her living in luxury, but his book tours and evangelism mean he's never home. Charlotte's sure he's cheating and even hires a PI to follow him, but she's been known to have indiscretions herself. Her 12-year-old, Matthew, is another man's son, and she suspects troubled five-year-old, Marissa, whom she swore was Curtis' child, might be the result of a tryst with a schizophrenic.

Charlotte's friend Janine, a college professor, also is worried that her boyfriend, Antonio, is cheating on her, as well as getting heavily into drug dealing. She kicks him out, but Antonio won't take no for an answer.

Love, Lies, & Second Chances

I loved it! I am a big fan of the Reverend Black Series!! This book had a lot of twists. I was never bored. Love & Lies kept me on my toes. I also enjoyed the dynamic of Janine and Charlotte's friendship. Loved how the Blacks became better parents in the wake of tragedy after losing their precious daughter Marissa! This is a must Listen!!

Awesome -Narration.

The narrator was very good. Could get into each of the characters, since she did every voice differently. The story line was very interesting. It was very sad in some parts. Overall, great book in audible!

throughly enjoyed

I got so deep in this book that I got mad at Janine for allowing Antonio to walk all over her. Kimberla really knows how to pull me in. A great read.
