Summary: Somethings not right
Review: A real page turner. A book that will raise a lot of questions in your mind. Tanya Black has taken a back seat to her husbands career goals long enough, especially when she feels that the good Rev.Black (her husband) is up to no good. She soon learns a lot about her husbands scadalous ways. Will she hang in their or will she summon the courage she needs to walk away? A must read and then pick up the sequel "To much of a good thing".

Summary: ENTERTAINING, EXCITING, AND CAPTIVATING!
Review: After reading this book, I went back and read the reviews. I totally disagree with the bad reviews of this book. I found that this book may not have captivated Curtis' reason for all of his lies and betrayal, but why does a man cheat we will never know. I thought that Kimberly brought to the forefront the issues surrounding the church and its pastors. We should not worship the man behind the pulpit but the spirit and son of God. I enjoyed this book from cover to cover as well as all of her books. It makes you think whether you are a man or women. Why do we make decisions to stay in bad relationships? Why do we let another person control us? Maybe the bad reviews were the result of some of the characters hitting to close to home. Thanks Kim for the happy ending!

Summary: A ok book, could of been better.
Review: I couldn't get into it because the plot was dragged and dragged intil you just say no more. I finished reading the book, on the advantage I finish a book in a day or two. But with this one I slowly got done with it. But I give a A+ for writing the book, because it's very hard to be an author.

Summary: Pastor Black Is A Mess
Review: I enjoyed this book. It was a little slow at times, but the more I read the more I enjoyed it. By the time I got towards the end of the book I didn't want to stop. The basis of the book is about Tanya trying to believe and wait on Pastor Black her husband to become the husband he should be. Pastor Black says one thing in the pulpit and does the opposite as soon as he says amen. The book is a trip. How long will Tanya wait on Pastor Black? Will his ways finally catch up to him? You'll have to read it. The book is really good!

Summary: Off the Hook!!!!
Review: I really enjoyed this book.Although this story is sad but true because it deals with how some of our ministers are today.Tanya Black is married to Curtis Black who is a preacher.He is cheating on her and begging the congregation for money...more money.It is all about Curtis,his women and material things.The more I read about Curtis the more I hated him but he was what made the book a page turner!!!Now Tanya on the other hand there were times when I actually wish I could jump into the book and slap some sense into Tanya for putting up with Curtis behavior.I wish she could have been a bit more aggressive.I understand she loved Curtis and wanted to try and work things out but come on now Curtis was always on the go.That should have told her he ain't trying to hear it.He wanted to do what he wanted end of story.She should have left a long time ago.He probaly figured she should be happy with the material things and let him be.Two wrongs don't make a right BUT I am glad she met James.If she didn't meet James she probaly would have still been with Curtis.I wish the author could have told us more about James.She should have been divorced Curtis but maybe she felt like there was still hope.I felt sorry for Alicia,their 9 year old daughter.I mean she just wanted to have a happy family.I think the main person who was hurt in the story was her.Adrienne who was one of the women that Curtis was seeing,he manipulated her.I mean it was about control with Curtis.He paid for her abortion and she was married to deacon Jackson.She really did love Curtis but she got hurt in the end too.Although the book dragged at the beginning it started getting good.Curtis got what was coming to him and I don't feel sorry for someone like that because he knew better.He was good at manipulating people and making them feel guilty.It was a good read.I will be reading "TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING" to see what else Curtis Black is up to!!!!!!!

Summary: Power, money and God...
Review: I truly enjoyed reading this book (quick read). And it is a true indication of how some of these "preachers" can lose sight of everything (i.e Jesse Jackson). I can understand everything that Tanya had to come to terms with and how difficult her decisions had to be. We can often offer advise to others about their relationships, but never can take our own advise, often trying to show how our situation is "a little" different. And when you are the "first lady" of the church, not only is your marriage considered the sacrament but representation of the entire church family. So no matter what happens Monday - Saturday on Sunday you still have to look like a happy church family. With the growing number of 'called' preachers, reverands, evangelists and Bishops, I'm certain there will be many Tanya's to come. Overall the book offers a great story with a strong spiritual background. And it also shows how our deep roots and upbringing in the church affects how we deal with our marital relationship, the decisions we make and why we sometimes endure so much.
