Publisher's summary

The Reverend Curtis Black faces shocking new revelations about his wife in the ninth installment of the award-winning series from New York Times bestselling author Kimberla Lawson Roby.

It's been months since Reverend Curtis learned that his wife Charlotte had affairs with two different men, and for now, he continues to be cordial and respectful to her. But he's also made it clear that once their son Matthew graduates high school, he will be filing for divorce.

Charlotte, on the other hand, continues to do everything possible to make amends in hopes of saving their marriage. Unfortunately, Curtis is ready to move on and is being propositioned by a woman who desperately wants to become the next Mrs. Curtis Black. When the situation heads down a path that is frighteningly shocking, could it be the final blow to this once blessed union?

Would you consider the audio edition of The Reverend's Wife to be better than the print version?

Any additional comments?

Kimberla Lawson Roby is such a classy, clean writer...her stories are very real and as audio books they come to life. I have listened to several of them...excellent choice in narrators...good work!

loved it!!

I can't wait to listen to the others awesome writer loved every min of it

Not her best

This book picks up from the previous book. It lacks umph, and WOW factor.

I guess the church members are not intuitive in this book. When did Charlotte become an alcoholic?

Maybe it was the narrator and not me, I don't know. This one gets 5 stars for snoozer!!!

I love all of her books

loved it God has truly blessed her with the gift of writing and story telling!

back to wife

This was the evolution of Charlotte. A tale of redemption, intercession and love.. Theme forgiveness.

Great series

Love it!

Love this book but I did not like the narrator.

Great story not so great performance

The story was great as always but the performance was not captivating at all.
