Do family, faith-and fame-go together? In this captivating novel from award-winning author Tiffany L. Warren, two brothers reach for the stars, but are they prepared for a fall?
They're handsome, smart, and musically gifted. Brothers Camden and Blaine Wilson have put their talents together and founded a gospel group. The quieter one, Camden, is the songwriter, while charismatic Blaine is the performer. At first, their Reverend father is against the idea-until Blaine, his favorite, wows the congregation with his performance at a church revival. Sure enough, once the Reverend witnesses their effect on the crowd he wants them there every Sunday. But he may have set the stage for trouble ...

Soon, a slew of rumors and a shocking betrayal threaten to destroy the group-and the brothers' relationship. But one event is going to rock their world forever. Do they have enough faith, forgiveness, and brotherly love left to find harmony once more? ...

Warren (The Replacement Wife) enthralls readers from the first page in this gritty tale of faith, forgiveness, and reconciliation. The gospel group formed by twin brothers Camden and Blaine Wilson earns attention from music moguls—and the wrath of the twins’ pastor father, whose iron rule over his megachurch extends to anything that might detract from his family image or personal financial success. Camden moves away from his family, the group, and his longtime girlfriend, Dawn, to pursue his dreams. Blaine is pleased to be appointed to pastor of the second church in the Wilson brand, but unhappy that his womanizing lifestyle is restricted. When Dawn hears rumors that Camden is gay, Blaine intimately comforts her, and she becomes pregnant; Camden is ap­­palled by the dual betrayal. After years of estrangement, the time is ripe for apologies and forgiveness. Well-rounded characters and vivid action make for an authentic, powerful read that lingers after the last page is turned.
