About this ebook
At long last, the Reverend Curtis Black appears to be on the straight and narrow. The all-too-human preacher is a bestselling author now, and he and his wife, Charlotte, are raising two adorable children. But the ever-suspicious Charlotte doesn't trust that Curtis has put his womanizing past behind him. While he's on the road promoting his latest book, she knows that there needs to be just one extra-devoted fan in his flock for him to stray.
Charlotte is no angel herself, and she's been keeping plenty of secrets from Curtis while he's been away. Still, Charlotte believes with all her heart that things will be better once Curtis is home again, although she should be careful what she wishes for since love may not be enough to untangle the web of lies she and Curtis have woven for themselves. And in the end, she'll have some tough decisions to make if she wants to salvage her marriage.

Reviews for Love and Lies
37 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Everyone has problems - maybe yours will work out. That could have been the motto for this book. In this novel, everyone not only has problems, they each have a problem in dealing with problems. Charlotte's unfaithful past comes back to haunt her in the guise of her 5-year-old daughter. Curtis finds out that what you do has consequences and that keeping your mistress a secret isn't always possible. Janine realizes that it is easier to acquire a boyfriend than it is to get rid of him, especially when he threatens violence. More than this happens in this engrossing tale of love and lies. Well written with fascinating characters, this audio version was enhanced by the wonderful performance of Tracey Leigh.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A thrilling Read! I thought "Love and Lies' was very interesting and well written. Kim Roby did a super effort in closing this series. There were a couple of plots that didn't seem to go anywhere, but I did like the way the new characters was brought in. I also liked the fact that the author didn't focus so much on Curtis. All and all, it was a thrilling read and I enjoyed the book very much.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is the fourth installment of the "Casting The First Stone" series centered around the devious Rev. Curtis Black, and still this was another good read from Roby. She knows how to keep the story flowing and writes plots to keep your attention.I found it interesting that she did not focus in on Curtis. With Curtis Black as a secondary character it made the series more enjoyable and it gives more of the other characters attention that could potentially broaden the direction for future novels relating to this series. An additional subplot involving her best friend, Janine and her relationship with her boyfriend, Antoine adds extra spice to this tale. Although not the Curtis-focused novel that I have become accustomed to in this series, there is still plenty of action to keep me interested and I was not disappointed with this book at all. I can't wait to read "Sin No More" due out in January 2008.
