Too Much of a Good Thing

ESSENCE BESTSELLER Less-than-pious preacher Curtis Black's philandering ways have already cost him one wife and a congregation. By now he should know better. But his attempts to resist temptation have been shockingly short-lived. Unfortunately for his trusting new flock and his second wife, Mariah, Curtis's irresistible looks, seductive charm, and charismatic personality are getting him into trouble again. Between trying to convince the deacon board to install an ATM in the back of the church and trying to keep his numerous love affairs out of the public eye-while neglecting an already dangerously unsteady relationship with his teenaged daughter, Alicia-Curtis has his roaming hands full. At the same time, Mariah is beginning to discover that a storm of lies and betrayal is brewing beneath the tranquil facade of their loving marriage. And with a little careful planning-sneaky and otherwise-the women in Curtis's life just may be able to help this randy man of the cloth reap the punishment he so richly deserves.Roby, Kimberla Lawson is the author of 'Too Much of a Good Thing', published 2005 under ISBN 9780060568504 and ISBN 006056850X.
