Heaven Right Here [Paperback]

Lutishia Lovely (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 22, 2011

When it comes to being fruitful and multiplying, the members of Kingdom Citizens Christian Center are on it--and no one tells their sexy, scandalous stories like Lutishia Lovely. . .

When Stacy Gray meets friends for lunch, the last thing she expects to be served is legal papers suing her for custody of her son, Darius Jr. As far as Stacy's concerned, when Darius Sr. chose to be with his male lover, he lost his chance at fatherhood. But when an unexpected crisis strikes, and an obsessed fan threatens more than Darius's music career, the battling parents may have to grow up. . .

Cy and Hope Taylor are struggling to conceive, so when Hope sees her former nemesis, Millicent, talking on television about life as a wife and new mother, jealousy rears its ugly head. Then Cy rekindles his friendship with Millicent and needless to say, Hope is definitely more peeved than pleased. As baby mama drama shakes up the saints, everyone better pray for mercy. . .

"The scintillating brew of sex, faith and sharp humor will have Lovely's fans breathless for more." --Publishers Weekly on A Preacher's Passion

More About the Author

Lutishia Lovely is an award-winning author of sixteen novels, six of which are romance titles written under her alter-ego pseudo, Zuri Day. In addition to her wildly popular Hallelujah Love Series, Ms. Lovely has a hot new trilogy called "The Business" about a soul food dynasty where delicious drama and sizzling scandal is always on the menu!

Prior to becoming a full-time author, Lutishia enjoyed many different careers. They all, however, had one thing in common - they all were linked into a "world of words". From administrative assistant to radio personality to actor to managing editor and senior writer for a holistic magazine,words have always been the magic that made Lutishia's world go 'round. Probably one of the spins that would most surprise readers is the fact that Lutishia was a rapper! That's right, for a short stint in the 90s, Lutishia was billed as "The Rhaptress" (a combination of a rapper and an actress), and toured with other singers and musicians throughout southern CA. She's happy now to beat out a rhythm on her keyboard...songs in the key of "writer" that she hopes will inspire and entertain!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ms. Lovely is the hottest thing on the shelf right now., July 29, 2009

By

This review is from: Heaven Right Here (Paperback)

There is no competition when it comes to literature in this genre. Ms.Lovely wins hands down with the "Hallelujah Love" series. You can expect no less in Heaven Right Here, the fourth installment of the series. Once again Ms. Lovely depicts real Christians that love God and deal with life at the same time. Ms. Lovely doesn't right about self righteous characters that readers can't relate to. Instead she allows readers to see something in each character that they can relate too. She shows the fact the you can love God, love life, but steal have to deal with life and situations that might be judged as unchristian. There's baby mama drama, insecurities, and self discovery. Things we all have to deal with in life. If you love God and love good reading then I suggest you grab Sex in the Santuary and continue from there...See you at the end of Heaven Right Here. Ms. Lovely I look forward to Rev. Feel Good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perhaps too much Heaven right here?, January 13, 2010

By 

Denny "Den" (London,UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Heaven Right Here (Paperback)

The drama of church folks continues in the fourth series of the Hallelujah love books. They each stand alone but for this one it helps to read all the other books first. Darius/Stacy/Bo are back with their baby momma, homosexuality, denial issues. Frieda, the honorary non Christian in the series continues to look for sex in all the wrong places but does not yet know it. This book reveals the hurt behind her frisky attitude. Hope and Cy, two years married and trying for a baby, is Hope too obsessed with this venture, can she relax and just wait on the Lord or will she let jealousy of Millicent, her nemesis who is happily married with her own son get in the way? As much as I love this series it seems to give the impression that a woman is not happy unless she is an educated professional, wears designer clothes, lives in a nice home and is happily married. Perhaps that is the problem with church folks too busy being middle class and wealthy? No one outside this circle features in the series at all unless they are a crazy stalker as in A Preachers Passion.

4.0 out of 5 stars What Goes Around, Comes Around, October 23, 2009

This review is from: Heaven Right Here (Paperback)

Heaven Right Here is Lutishia Lovely's next installment in the Kingdom Citizens' Christian Center series. Everyone is at war. Stacy is glowing after giving birth to Darius Jr. and she cannot imagine her life without him. She still does not understand how his father could just walk away from her and she wages war against him and his partner. Hope battles with her inner demands as she watches her husband, Cy, befriend the husband of her nemesis, Millicent. Frieda finds a new man who knows how to rock her world. She later learns that maybe there is more to a relationship than sex.

Lovely brings a lot of drama, sex, and scandal with Heaven Right Here. Once again, I found portions of the story slow moving, predictable and some very funny. Many of the old characters, Pastor Montgomery and his wife, Vivian, and Tai and King Brooke, make appearances that added to the fun. Fans of Lovely will definitely enjoy this story.
