It's been almost two years since Michelle Williamson's boyfriend, Pierre Dupree, walked out on her to marry a minister's daughter. Since then, Michelle's friendship with her church buddy David has deepened into something sweet and special, but learning that Pierre has called off his wedding throws her into confusion. When Pierre wants Michelle back, she's forced to make a choice—one she may regret. Liz Coleman has two great blessings—her calling as a minister, and a saved man who truly loves her. But Liz's insecurity and jealousy are eating at her peace of mind and threatening her relationship. Sandy has found the strength to get her ex out of her life. But meeting a loving, spiritual man to replace him isn't easy, and soon her loneliness leads her to the one brother who should be off-limits…. With their hearts and souls on the line, Michelle, Liz and Sandy are learning that a good, saved man isn't always easy to find—but he's definitely worth waiting for…. |

HE'S SAVED... BUT IS HE FOR REAL? revisits Michelle, Liz and Sandy from He's Fine... But Is He Saved? It has been two years since Pierre dumped Michelle to marry another woman. She finds out he left her too when he tries to get back into her life. She is seeing a guy at church but her comparisons to Pierre are driving him away. Liz decides to quit her job to go full-time into the ministry. Her relationship with Matthew is hitting a snag due to her insecurities. And Sandy is still looking in all the wrong places for a man to love. The one she picks will cause all three friends to fall on their knees in prayer and stand on the Word of God.
The central theme of HE'S SAVED... BUT IS HE FOR REAL? is forgiveness and Brook presents several situations where the characters had to learn to trust God at His Word and forgive. She does an excellent job portraying how hard the struggle is for most. I would have like to see more development in Pierre and Sandy's characters. The ending leads me to believe we will see a future installment with these three. I'll be on the look-out for it.

One of the best books I have ever read!!! |
|
I did not read the first book but I can only tell you that this book was a page turner and will definitely not lose your attention. From start to finish as you read each chapter you are always wondering what will happen next?! If you read this book you will not regret it. This book is about friendships, relationships, forgiveness,waiting on God, second chances, and how God blesses us in spite of what we do. |

You Will Know Them... By Their Fruit |
Author Kimberley Brooks penned a fiction novel that speaks to all women when it comes to believing God for their mates.
Michelle Williams was able to pull herself together after her break up with Pierre Dupree, finding new love with David Parker, the praise team leader at her church. David wasn't built like Pierre, and neither was he as tall, but he was the saved woman's dream for a mate. However, when Pierre called off his marriage to the minister's daughter at the last minute, Michelle began to explore the remnants of the love she still had for Pierre.
It was not long before Michelle ran into Pierre and he took advantage of an opportunity he felt he deserved to get back into Michelle's life and marry her. In the meantime, Liz was called into full time ministry and another level in her spiritual life concerning forgiveness. Coming to learn who her father is and ultimately meeting him helped to take her to that level and find out some things about herself that made sense concerning the man in her life.
Sandy, Michelle's best friend, thoroughly tested her friendship with Michelle by ignoring the unwritten code concerning friends and old boyfriends, but she too had a lesson to learn as she sought forgiveness from God and her friend.
He's Saved... But Is He For Real is a read that prompts readers to pray and wait for God to lead in relationships before making decisions that can not only ruin relationships, but lives. Ladies, just because he's, in church and he's fine, and he appears saved, be patient and watch his `fruit.' That is, if you can't wait on God for an answer.
The theme for this book is forgiveness, something that is sometimes hard when you have been hurt to the core of your soul by someone you love and trust. I recommend this book to women who are waiting on God for their mates, and for anyone who has trouble with forgiveness.

Now This is a Sequel!!! |
Wow!!! Not a basic cheesy let tie all the end up in a bow sequel. Very Suspenseful. At time a tab bit of humor. All of them don't just up an get married, THE END. Love that!!!
But most of all I like the fact I could see the Holy Ghost working these characters over in a few different scenes of the book. Sandy in the Party, Michelle- Forgiveness Sermon, Liz- Her Sermon. That was so amazing!!! Real characters being "saved" and not "churched" or "very religious"
I hope Ms. Brooks makes one more on these characters. Just one more!!! |

Great Sequel |
|
I thought that Brooks did a great job with the sequel. I was totally engrossed from the very moment that I started reading. I completed reading this book in 3 days. I found myself reading into the wee hours of the night and waking up in the wee hours of the morning so that I could read it. If you liked the first one, you will love the second!! I am ready for the third. |
