Most of us believe that we will finally feel satisfied and content with our lives when we get the good news we have been waiting for, find a healthy relationship, or achieve one of our personal goals. However, this rarely happens. Good fortune is often followed by negative emotions that overtake us and result in destructive behaviors.

Story5 out of 5 stars 8
Heaven Lyons is her name, and she used to be the sweetest girl. Heaven was raised in a two-parent household with two very religious parents, and her father was a well- known pastor in Miami, Florida. This young girl had perfect attendance through all her years of school, always brought home straight A’s, and was always student of the month. Heaven was the perfect child and never gave her parents any problems until she met Tony Isaac. Tony is dangerous for Heaven, but there is something about him that intrigues her.

Story5 out of 5 stars 95
The night of May 25, 2020 changed America. George Floyd, a 46-year-old Black man, was killed during an arrest in Minneapolis when a White cop suffocated him. The video of that night’s events went viral, sparking the largest protests in the nation’s history and the sort of social unrest we have not seen since the '60s. While Floyd’s death was certainly the catalyst (heightened by the fact that it occurred during a pandemic whose victims were disproportionately of color), it was in truth the fuse that lit an ever-filling powder keg.

With her curvy body, long jet black hair, and a face to rival any super model, Allyson Chase is every man’s fantasy, and she sees nothing wrong with sleeping her way to the top. When Byran Ward, a wealthy pastor, enters the scene, Allyson could not be more excited. Beyond his physical attraction to her, Byran has his own agenda. He’s vying to become the pastor of Cornerstone Baptist Church, a 10,000-member congregation that is sure to give him more of the prestige and notoriety he craves. He matches all of their qualifications except for one: he needs a wife.

Publisher's Summary
Sheridan S. Davis, author of Saved Sex, Pretty for a Dark-Skin Girl, and I’m Nobody’s Ruth is all too familiar with Chicago’s church scene. The city, mostly known for its heavily portrayed violence in media, is also the birthplace of Gospel music and has a rich history in God.
As a church girl herself, Sheridan decided to pen a fictional tale about the friendship between five church girls. Join Shyanne, Selena, Kyra, Miriam, and Lisa as they plow through the ups and downs of friendship. Their positions in the church do not exempt them from drama and disappointment. Through their lenses, you will see that the church girls are just like your girls!

This was a great book. The story was captivating, and not boring. A wonderful story about love, friendship and family that is centered around church.
