Church Boyz' Series - Book 1 (Rod of the Wicked), by H.H. Fowler

Imagine sharing the spotlight with a ruthless blackmailer, whose only intention, is to take all of which you’ve worked hard to achieve – your wealth, your fame, and your church of seven thousand members. For Pastor Leroy Paxton of Mount Moriah Baptist Church, this is no imagination. Five years ago, he committed a toxic sin and almost lost his life trying to cover it up. He now comes face to face with his past, which haunts him from the pulpit to his bedroom. And the only way out of this nightmare is to make a decision that could cost him everything.

Then imagine being mentored by one of the most revered men, Abraham Winder, whose stance on accountability and sexual purity is taught rigorously within the Mount Moriah mentoring program, only to discover your mentor is not what you expect. This is the reality for Dominic Housten, one of Abraham’s closet and trusted protégés, who accidentally stumbles upon a scene that left him frozen in disbelief. As Dominic struggles with betrayal, he confides in the pastor’s daughter – the only woman he’d secretly loved for years. The only problem with that is the pastor’s daughter is married to Phillip Benjamin, a deacon of the church and an extremely jealous man, who suspects Dominic’s intention runs deeper than just a casual friendship.

How To Meet A Man Without Trying: Exceptional Dating Advice For Women, by Suzanne Miles

This Will Be The Last Book On Dating You Ever Read

Let's be honest. Dating advice for women usually is not very good. Most of it lacks substance, and doesn't bring us any closer to meeting the kind of man we want in our life. To make matters worse, we stress out over not being able to meet a guy that we truly like, and in the back of our minds we fear that we will end up alone. It's time for this anxiety to end, and to finally take the simple steps needed to meet the kind of man you desire.

The Real Secret To Meeting The Man Of Your Dreams Is You

Traditional dating advice doesn't work because it lacks common sense. It also doesn't explain what really makes a man attracted to you. Meeting the man of your dreams is not about being pretty, sounding smart, or being flirtatious. It is about having common sense.
