  The Reverend’s Wife

  “[Roby] knows how to give readers what they want.”

  —Essence

  “4 stars! There’s nothing like a healthy dose of drama to keep readers on their toes. Underneath the deception, gossip, and bad decisions lies a storyline that any reader will be able to relate to. The author paints an interesting story with an accurate view of what goes on within the family behind the pulpit.”

  —RT Book Reviews

  “Definitely a page-turner with new and crazy characters. I love how Roby gives each of the Blacks an opportunity for their own story… If you are in love with these characters, you will love this book. And even if you have never read a book in this series, you will enjoy this one.”

  —APOOOBooks.com

  “5 stars! The Blacks are back and better than ever… THE REVEREND’S WIFE has a storyline that flows effortlessly and the characters pop with so much life and realism, you can’t help but become involved… Roby has done it again, and it’s even better than the last time!… a guaranteed page-turner with enough drama and surprises to keep you hooked till the jaw-dropping ending.”

  —AAMBookClub.com

  And for Love, Honor, and Betray

  “For those thousands of fans, who can’t get enough of the ‘good’ reverend and his wives, this is a book that should not be missed.”

  —Philly.com

  “Lively, action packed, and full of sassy sensuality, Roby once again has created a story that grabs the reader’s attention and holds it until the very end.”

  —Las Vegas Review-Journal

  “An entertaining read… remains true to Roby’s style of creatively telling a story.”

  —New York Amsterdam News

  “Like her previous fiction, LOVE, HONOR, AND BETRAY provides an unflinching examination of the human condition while keeping the reader engaged and entertained at the same time.”

  —Examiner.com

  “Much of Kimberla Lawson Roby’s bestselling success is due to her irresistibly complex character Rev. Curtis Black. In LOVE, HONOR, AND BETRAY, her fifteenth book and eighth about the self-justifying, greedy, womanizing minister, she tackles one of the most challenging situations facing the explosion of blended families today.”

  —Heart & Soul

  “Full of drama and splashed with plenty of suspense and love triangles.”
