The Woman God Created You to Be: Finding Success Through Faith—Spiritually, Personally, and Professionally –Kimberla Lawson Roby

Kimberla Lawson Roby admits that for years, she wasn’t being the real woman God created her to be. Yes, she has always loved God and tried her best to honor Him, but what she eventually discovered was that building and maintaining her relationship with God–and making Him her top priority–was the key to finding joy in all areas of her life.

Now, in The Woman God Created You to Be, Kimberla has bravely–and transparently–written about her flaws, fears, and failures, as well as her faith, courage, and successes. From experiencing divorce to marrying her soulmate of twenty-nine years…from hopelessly searching for the perfect job to becoming a New York Times bestselling author…from suffering in silence with anxiety to concentrating on self-care…from struggling with the loss of her mom to finding strength, comfort, peace, and understanding.

Times like these –Morrisa Tuck

Rachel Parker’s picture-perfect existence as the First Lady of Third Day Missionary Baptist Church is about to be turned upside down. A murdered pastor, his hidden lover, and the family left behind brings a wife, a church, and a small-town, Southern community to its knees. They could use a little grace and mercy just to get to the other side. Pass the sweet tea!

The Power of Love–Chase Boykins

In “The Power of Love,” one highly successful and respected woman learns the hard way that “it” is no respecter of a person. It doesn’t care if you have money. It doesn’t care what career path you have chosen. It doesn’t care how beautiful you are. Abuse is like a deadly evil weed that lurks among beautiful blades of green grass waiting to choke the life out of you.

Nadine Jackson-Deville is a premier attorney who is married to the most powerful man in the city of Atlanta, Mayor Damon Deville. While they paint the portrait of a life many admire and envy, onlookers would be shocked if they knew the truth about this power couple. The Devilles wear many masks to keep family, friends, church members, business associates, and the citizens of Atlanta blind to the ugliness that lurks behind the security gates of their illustrious estate.

But the Bible is clear: “Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed or hidden that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops” (Luke 12: 2-3). So, how long can the charade last? Will the Devilles’ secrets be exposed? Or is this simply a trial designed for God to reveal his Glory? Source amazon

Queen of Exiles: A Novel – Vanessa Riley

“You may not know Marie-Louise Christophe but once you have met her, you won’t forget her. Vanessa Riley’s historical novel feels timely and relevant, commemorating a time when Black women were queens.” —Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Acclaimed historical novelist Vanessa Riley is back with another novel based on the life of an extraordinary Black woman from history: Haiti’s Queen Marie-Louise Christophe, who escaped a coup in Haiti to set up her own royal court in Italy during the Regency era, where she became a popular member of royal European society.
