A Great Read For Anyone To Enjoy!, October 19, 2009
This review is from: Holy Seduction (Peace In The Storm Publishing Presents) (Paperback)
First Lady of Oakdale Baptist Church Denise Tate has a lifestyle women would envy. She has a beautiful home in the suburbs. Her husband, Senior Pastor of Oakdale Baptist, makes sure his wife is satisfied. And to top if off, Denise has an overflowing bank account. So, why would a woman like this be unhappy and sneaking around behind her husband's back?
Senior Pastor Randy Tate is completely clueless as to what his beautiful "devoted" wife has been doing. While he's doing God's work, his wife is doing the work of the devil. There's a saying "What's done in the dark. will come to the light." Soon, First Lady Denise will find out that you cannot always have your cake and eat it too. Sometimes, you might choke.
With her husband unaware of all the sins she was committing, Denise was determined that her past and present would not be known to her husband. She will go to great lengths to make sure that Pastor Tate does not find out anything. That's until Tyrone decides that it's time that the Pastor should know what his First Lady has been doing. Now, when an unexpected situation comes up, will Denise tell her husband everything or just pray that the storm will pass?
Holy Seduction puts you in the mind of some congregations that praises Jesus from 10:30-12:30 (church hours). Once the people hit the street, it's business as usual, and we're not talking about God's business. This novel will make you laugh, cry, shout, and praise God. While reading this book, you can possibly familiarize yourself with some of the characters. They may remind you of people in your family, friends, or even in your church. There were a few errors here and there, but not enough to criticize. Holy Seduction was a great read.

Everything In The Church Ain't Saved, September 21, 2009
This review is from: Holy Seduction (Peace In The Storm Publishing Presents) (Paperback)
The first lady of Oakdale Baptist Church, Denise Tate, has everything an ordinary woman could pray for. Even with her beautiful home, fancy candy apple red Mercedes, and her strong, loving, Christian husband-she is unsatisfied. Contrary to her actions, Denise entered her marriage with Pastor Randy Tate with high expectations and good intentions; after all she maintained her virginity for her husband. Holding on to Randy's protective and gracious promises of fulfilled material desires and eternal love, she had been eager to give him her all. When Denise's best friend Terri notices her boredom early in her marriage, she offers what any good friend would--a night on the town. A sweet and innocent evening amongst friends soon turns Denise's life in a direction she has not planned, but finds herself living it and loving it.
Living with decisions she made that night, Denise juggles a few men besides her husband with careful precision and grace. She soon finds herself in a situation that threatens to reveal her long-time indiscretions and end her marriage forever. Will Denise shape up and fall under the loving grace of God in time enough to save her marriage, or will the revelation of her scandal be too much to gain the forgiveness of her husband?
Jessica A. Robinson's HOLY SEDUCTION is captivating from page one. The characters and issues are believable and realistic. As you flip through the pages of this novel you will find yourself doing everything from gritting your teeth in anticipation of what stunt Denise is going to pull next to feeling sorry for her in what she might have just gotten herself into. HOLY SEDUCTION is an entertaining and enlightening read about the good, as well as the shady going-ons in the church.
