I’m so excited about this book and about this series because it’s so different from your usual Christian fiction. I keep telling myself that I need to write ‘typical’ Christian fiction and stop being so on the edge/different, but I can’t seem to help myself. I honestly lose all passion for writing when I try to censor myself or write in a certain ‘more acceptable way’. In the end I always circle back to being me. I’m glad I’ve found a community of readers who like my ‘different’ books.
I like to keep it real and this series is going to be very real. I’m building up to something pretty big with these books. Bombshells are coming; huge revelations that will test the limits of the main characters.
But before we get there, Chloe needs to grow a backbone and Colby needs to take a stand with his bosses. That’s what City of Angels is all about.
From The Back Cover
How do you choose between dangerous freedom and peaceful slavery?
Chloe: Imagine the worst thing that could happen to you. And then multiply it by ten!
Somehow, my family has found out about Colby, and the shame of what I did is unbearable.
Mom orders me to return home and she puts me through bootcamp: all-night prayer meetings, bible lectures from Nana, the works.
Now, I no longer trust myself.
Can the girl who made such a horrendous mistake just last week really be hearing from God this week?
And would God really tell her to go to LA to participate in a reality TV show?
Mom and Nana think not.
Colby will be in the show. We’ll be locked in a mansion for a month with a bunch of other people. I’ll be out in the world all on my own with nobody to keep me in check.
I should stick to the safety of what I’ve always known. Maybe I should even marry the pastor dude that my family wants me to marry. But I think I’m going to listen to these stirrings in my soul.
I risk embarrassing myself and angering the people who love me.
But it’s possible that this could be the beginning of an exciting adventure with God.
Colby: What I fear most is exactly what I need.
I didn’t expect that one week with Chloe to mean so much. Neither did I expect her rejection to hurt this bad.
What she discovered about me is just the tip of the iceberg. She has no idea just how crazy things really are.
But things are going to change.
The dread of my family finding out what I do has kept me in captivity this long.
I’m done hiding.
It’s time to break free.
If Chloe and Colby can just make it to LA, everything might change.
I’m getting really excited as I near the end of the Lincolns’ series, because once each brother has his book I’m going back to the Crystal series. I can’t wait to write new Crystal books 🙂
Soo…have a fabulous weekend, guys. Do lots of reading and have lots of fun 🙂
