Essence #1 best-selling author Michele Andrea Bowen pens saucy African-American stories with Christian themes. Holy Ghost Corner is an inspiring story about one woman's hopes for a blessed future with the right man as she struggles with her own religious principles. Theresa Hopson is the successful owner of one of the hottest new stores in Durham, North Carolina: Miss Thang's Holy Ghost Corner and Church Women's Boutique. But success isn't enough without someone to share it with. Theresa needs a God-fearing, intelligent, hard-working and loving man. Unfortunately, the pickings are slim. Reverend Parvell Sykes is the assistant pastor at Theresa's church, but behind his public persona, he's greedy and conniving. The only other single, successful man in town is attractive Lamont Green, who hasn't seen the inside of a church in years. But God works in mysterious ways, and Theresa must trust Him in order to find true happiness. Bowen's Church Folk (F0081) is also available from Recorded Books.
