Carl Weber takes readers back to church in his latest drama-filled novel, the much-anticipated sequel to the New York Times bestseller, The Choir Director.
It's been three years since Aaron Mackie succeeded in helping his friend and mentor, Bishop T.K. Wilson, dig his ministry out of financial ruin. Aaron is also responsible for re-energizing the almost defunct choir into something special. His success has drawn national attention, and he's on the verge of signing a huge recording contract. With his life in order, Aaron decides the time is right to propose to Tia Gregory, the church secretary who caught his eye and inspired him to shed his Tiger Woods-like tendencies to become a one-woman man. The stage is set for what might be the wedding of the year, but quickly becomes the disaster of the year when Aaron is left at the altar without explanation.
Now, during his own hour of need, Aaron turns to the bishop for help. Unfortunately, the line he asks T. K. to cross will force the bishop to choose between faith and friendship, or as he puts it, "between heaven and hell." As the investigation into Tia's disappearance continues, the two men are challenged in ways they never imagined.

      In this sequel to his wildly popular The Choir Director (2011), Weber returns to First Jamaican Ministries in Queens for the wedding of famous choir director Aaron Mackie and church secretary Tia, but bride leaves groom at the altar after Tia sees one of the men who raped her years ago. Tia can think only of revenge, while Aaron and Bishop T. K. Wilson fall prey to a scheming agent, who is part of a larger plot against Aaron. Meanwhile, the flirtatious Desiree is hired as the new church secretary, and readers know immediately she is up to something with Aaron. The over-the-top antics of all the characters keep high drama at the church going strong, even if the various entanglements stretch belief. Weber turns some stereotypes on their heads (even bad-girl Desiree has layers) in this roller coaster of a churchy romance. The surprise ending twists everything further and sets up the next installment. Fans of ReShonda Tate Billingsley may enjoy this series.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)
