For Scharisse Freeman, success comes at a cost but is it a price she's willing to pay? From the multi-prize winning author of THE SECRET LIVES OF CHURCH LADIES (stories), the decadent delicious and daring debut of the year.

'I have no intention of sticking to the script...'
Meet Scharisse Freeman, the Beyoncé of the megachurch world: bold, unapologetic, ambitious, very much her own woman.
For the same reasons, she has always been a pariah among the other preacher's wives (aka First Ladies). From the moment she ditched her humble roots and married a megachurch pastor fifteen years her senior, she's been labelled too brash by the First Ladies and too holy by her estranged childhood friend, Petra. Schar doesn't have a lot of allies, but that hasn't stopped her from building an empire spanning from books to branded products, and living a comfortable life her mother could only have dreamed of.
On the eve of her 40th birthday, Schar gets the validation she's always dreamed of: a coveted invitation to participate in one of the biggest dates in the megachurch world - the First Lady USA pageant. But as the competition nears, a scandal breaks and her carefully curated life threatens to implode...
