Author Vanessa Davis Griggs

From Vanessa Davis Griggs comes the second book in her Blessed Trinity Trilogy. Part Terry McMillan, part Jan Karon, Griggs delivers the story of a congregation hoping for heaven--while dealing with life right here on earth...

When Pastor George Landris, the dreadlock-wearing minister of the new mega-church, Followers of Jesus Faith Worship Center, urges his congregation to approach the altar and cast off their strongholds--also known as their weaknesses--it's the start of intense soul-searching for many.

From a married couple's twin addictions to gambling and gluttony, to a female member's adulterous affair, a computer expert's obsession with cyber-porn and a therapist's workaholism, the Pastor's church family is about to open the proverbial floodgates. And that's just the beginning. There's also the woman whose battle with mental illness hides a buried trauma, and the religious devotee who's so busy fearing the devil she's forgotten what faith is really about. The plot only thickens when the Pastor's wife lightens his load by helping him counsel--and finds herself at the center of a decades-long deception.

Insightful, witty, and always poignant, Vanessa Davis Griggs delivers another compelling novel, taking readers behind the scenes of mega-churches, and showing the amazing power that redemption and faith can have on people's lives.

Author Eric Pete

The players are controlling businessman Tanner Coleman, Tanner's staid trophy wife Bianca, and Bianca's wild and liberated sister, Pumpkin. But it's the arrival of a fourth player, Henry-a man with secret ties to Tanner who will do anything to make his own violent fantasies come true-that will take things in a truly twisted direction.

Author Nikki Turner

After Nikki Turner read The Coldest Winter Ever by Sistah Souljah she was dismayed that there weren't other books like it. "I wanted to write the kinds of books I wanted to read," said the bestselling author, whose 2002 debut novel, A Hustler's Wife, would go on to sell more than a few 100,000 copies.

But becoming a novelist wasn't an easy transition for Nikki. A gentleman she was dating at the time had given her a computer as a Valentine's Day gift but when they broke up he took the computer with him - as well as the first half of Nikki's novel. She purchased another computer but her creative process had lost its steam. Her favorite uncle asked her how the book was coming along at a family cookout. When she mentioned that she bought a new computer but hadn't even taken it out the box her uncle said he would set it up for her if she promised to finish her book. He came the next day to set it up and 37 days later Nikki completed A Hustler's Wife. "The novel just came to me," Nikki said. "I started from scratch and didn't even want to go back to my earlier try. When I wrote A Hustler's Wife everything else - except for my kids - became a distant priority. And when I finished writing it, I was a very different person."
