LONGING

by Rochelle Renee

Preacher Mitch Kelly has been a prominent figure in the community for many years. With a weekly TV sermon and a string of bestselling books, life is good for the happily married reverend. At home in idyllic Lindsay Falls, the only major news is the birth of the Jones’ baby or Mrs. McGuire’s prize-winning jam at the Spring Fair. Till one day carefree beauty Rhea Collins moves to town, and all hell breaks loose. As a songwriter/animal rights activist, she creates an uproar when she opposes the church’s annual holiday fashion show, fur included. The 100-year ladies’ social event is a cherished tradition, so rival newcomers are frowned upon – especially those of the tree-hugging variety. Rhea’s exploits create chaos in the tightly-knit community. Mitch vies to keep order among the people by chastising Rhea. But when he arrives at the lakeside Victorian home to confront her, he finds instead a passionate awakening that leaves him blindsided. Soon, he is forced to deal with forbidden yearnings that threaten his holy image. The inferno between them creates a heat so profound that hell hath no fury…like a preacher’s longing.
