Synopsis

Carl Weber is the New York Times best-selling author of such fan favorites as So You Call Yourself a Man (CF175). The First Lady is the tale of a preacher's wife who learns she's dying and vows to find her husband another woman. There is no shortage of ladies who want her man, but will she be able to find a suitable replacement among the conniving church women? "Weber keeps the pacing brisk and loads the narrative with enough surprise turns to keep readers guessing to the end."-Publishers Weekly
