Selling My Soul — Sherri Lewis

"Church Sex Scandal!" the front page of The Washington Times screamed. Barely off the plane from Africa for two minutes and some American sensationalism is there to greet her. Glad not to be in public relations anymore, Trina Michaels plans to ignore the headline. Until she recognizes the faces of the accused.

When she returns from her two-year mission trip in Mozambique, Trina realizes that other than longing to see her mother and her best friend, her heart aches to fly back to the place that now feels more like home than anywhere she's ever lived. And to the man who's stolen her heart.

Her dreams of returning to her beloved village are short-lived. Trina soon learns that her mother has been diagnosed with cancer and the cost of treatment is expensive. She's forced to return to her career in public relations and is assigned a damage control client--the bishop of a mega-church where an associate pastor and deacon were accused of sexually abusing young boys. One of the young boys has grown up to become her best friend's husband and a popular gospel recording artist. Representing Bishop Walker could cost Trina her most valued friendship, her reputation, and a future with her new love. As she plows deeper into the scandal and the bishop blackmails her to cover the church's secrets and lies, Trina realizes it could cost her soul.
