There is never a dull moment for Mount Zion Ministries' main ladies, but this time around, the ladies find themselves fighting to stay afloat amid the storm. Charles and Sullivan Webb's happy home life comes crashing down around them after Sullivan is critically injured in a car accident. Charles is faced with having to choose between saving the life of his pregnant wife or that of his unborn child. Lawson Banks had barely gotten used to the idea of being a stepmother to husband Garrett's love child when her teenage son, Namon, informs her that she is about to become a grandmother. Lawson struggled as a teen parent, and she will stop at nothing to make sure history doesn't repeat itself. Angel and Duke King pray that the third time is the charm for their turbulent romance. All seems well until a female employee accuses Duke of attempted sexual assault after an overnight business trip. Given his past, Angel is torn between standing by her man and taking the word of his accuser. After secretly eloping, Reginell and Mark Vinson are basking in wedded bliss, until Reginell is diagnosed with endometriosis. Not only does her subsequent hysterectomy terminate any chance of conceiving a child, but Reginell also suffers unforeseen consequences. After failing to get her own reality show off the ground, Kina manages to secure a lucrative book deal. Her publisher assigns Desdemona Price to be Kina's ghostwriter, and the two become fast friends—until Desdemona starts to insert herself into the lives of Kina's friends and it becomes apparent that she has a hidden agenda of her own. The ladies have always been able to rely on God and each other, but even those things that were once most familiar now seem foreign. For the first time, they begin to question if their friendships are more of a hindrance than a help, and if God is even listening.

For friends Lawson Kerry Banks, Sullivan Webb, Reginell Kerry, Kina Battle, and Angel King, life never offers a dull moment. Sisterly love morphs into an intense sibling rivalry between Lawson and her younger sister, Reginell. Reginell has always admired and looked up to her older sister, but she is met with disapproval because of her job as an exotic dancer. First Lady Sullivan Webb has struggled to get her life and her marriage back on track after her extramarital affair is exposed on the Internet. Sullivan believes that the solution to her marital problems may lie in giving Charles the one thing he doesn't have. Everything backfires when Sullivan takes matters out of the Lord's hands and into her own. Kina Battle thought her troubles were over once her abusive husband was dead and buried. What she didn't anticipate was a crushing bout of loneliness that her new job, her church, or her devotion to her son, Kenny, can't cure. She soon finds herself drawn to the last person she ever thought she'd be attracted to. Angel King has met the man of her dreams. Unfortunately, it's a little too late, because she is already engaged to someone else. The ladies have all overcome their share of obstacles, but nothing like the challenges they're currently facing. Friendship, love, and laughs won't be enough this time. Only God can save them now.

The most tumultuous period of my life was from November 2008-October 2009. Within a year's time, I went from being a happily married woman to a disillusioned wife, watching my marriage's slow hemorrhage, which led to its eventual death. By the end of fall 2009, I was no longer a wife. I was a divorcee and single parent. More importantly, I was a woman brave and crazy enough to step back into the dating arena after a 12-year hiatus in the hope of finding a love that's everlasting. Thus began the journey of 1,000 dates and just as many lessons about love and life, all documented in my personal journals that make up this book. Written with humor and often brutal honesty, Note to Self is realistic first-hand account of challenges professional women over age 30 face when re-entering the dating market, proving that even for authors, real life is often stranger than fiction!

Mt. Zion's first lady, Sullivan Webb, has left her philandering ways behind her, but lingering questions surrounding her daughter's paternity motivate Sullivan to seek out her own absentee father, Pastor Samuel Sullivan. What her search uncovers is years of lies, secrets, and betrayal that threaten to destroy the lives of almost everyone she loves. Kina Battle's newfound celebrity status as the winner of a popular weight-loss reality show goes to her head as quickly as she shed her unwanted pounds. Kina is prepared for the fame, endorsement deals, and celebrity appearances that come along with stardom. What she isn't prepared for is the harsh backlash when her secrets are exposed and the public starts to question whether she is the devout Christian that she's led everyone to believe she is. Lawson Kerry Banks could get over her husband's affair if the evidence wasn't staring at her through the eyes of his love child. Lawson's insecurities and inability to accept his child force Garrett to choose between the woman he loves and the child he's fathered. Life as the soon-to-be wife of high school football coach Mark Vinson lacks the excitement of Reginell Kerry's former life. It certainly lacks the financial security that pulling down $1000 a week as an exotic dancer afforded her. When the bills start to pile up, Reginell goes back to doing what she knows best, only this time it may cost her more than she's willing to pay. Angel King's broken heart finds a safe place to mend in the arms of high school classmate Jordan McKay. He respects her decision to abstain from sex until marriage, he loves the Lord, and he adores her. However, Jordan is harboring a dangerous secret that could destroy their relationship and leave Angel brokenhearted once again. Just when these ladies think they've gotten life figured out, fate steps in and throws a curve ball, adding fuel to the drama that seems to follow the ladies wherever they go.
