Excerpt from When
Perfection Fails
No one had the
perfect life even if they went to church. Serena’s mamma dragged her to church
when she was younger. All that shouting sure didn’t stop what happened to
Serena. Seemed like her life had become one big heartache after another. She
concentrated on what she was good at – getting the story.
“The truth shall
set you free.” Serena spoke as she closed out the church website. “Serena will
certainly bring you the truth, honey.”
An email
notification popped up in the right hand corner of Serena’s computer. She
glanced at the notification as it faded away. A name caught her attention. She
clicked over to see her full mailbox and opened the email. The FROM line was
from somebody named Lance Ryan.
“Two first names?
Really?” Serena sat up straight in her chair.
“Let’s see what Lance Ryan has to say.”
Ms.
Manchester,
I
thought you might want to know there is trouble brewing in your city. You may
be the best person to help bring justice. Would you be interested in meeting
for more information? I promise you
won’t be disappointed. You will thank me later.
Thank you later.
The boldness of this man with his two first names.
Serena smiled and
hit reply. She typed, “Mr. Lance Ryan. I look forward to meeting you. Name the
time and the place.”
She hit send. Who
knows? Lance Ryan might be the man she was looking for in her life. With that
she laughed and grabbed her bag. Desperation
does not suit you, girl.
About
the Book
Reverend Jonathan Freeman and his wife
Lenora are quickly becoming Charlotte’s “it” couple. All eyes are on them as
Jonathan is named pastor of a church following the death of his father and
Lenora has become a sought-after wedding planner. The Freeman's are media
darlings and a model couple; the picture of perfection. Or are they?
Behind the scenes, Jonathan struggles
with his role as pastor of a megachurch while Lenora grows increasingly and
uncharacteristically distant. A number of odd and tragic incidents push her
further away from the love of her life and the facade of perfection begins to
crack.
A carefully guarded secret catches up
with Lenora and it threatens her security as well as that of her family. Has an
imperfect past finally caught up with her? Will the ghost of someone she
thought long dead rise like Lazarus from the grave and destroy all she has
worked to preserve? Or will Lenora fight to protect the man she loves and the
beautiful life God has blessed her to have?
