Never Got Over
A broken family, in need of healing and restoration.
The Jacob family is still reeling from an unexpected revelation and murder that changed the course of their beloved Aunt Cass’ life years ago. However, little do they realize the secrets didn’t stop on that tragic afternoon.
Zyah, a baby in Christ is still figuring life out after the love of her life was arrested and sentenced to prison five years prior. Her aunt is insistent she should be the new first lady of New Light Baptist Church, trying every tactic in the book to persuade her that Reverend Apollo Jackson should be her new love interest. Zyah has her doubts and for good reason.
Reverend Apollo Jackson believes Zyah Jacobs is the answer to his prayer, but is it God’s voice who’s really directing his life or some hidden insecurity that continues to propel him in the wrong direction when it comes to choosing the leading lady in his life.
Then there’s Monie Jacobs, Zyah’s little sister who’s suffered the most from her family’s tragic outcome and little does her family know, they’re only aware of half the story. Monie hits rock bottom unexpectedly and is rescued by the last person the Jacob family would have ever expected to save her.
And Cass has some of her own issues to work out after experiencing her own tragedy and she truly tests the loved ones who’ve surrounded her and supported her through her ordeal. Will this latest test of faith make her to realize the error of her ways so she can live true to the Christian principles she claims she stands on? And will the secrets her sister, Joyce, will drop on the family in the most unexpected way cause this family to implode?
When all seems lost, God steps in only in a way he can and we learn through tests of faith, God can truly work anything out as long as we’re willing to surrender to His will and not our own. Will this story end with redemption, joy and glory? See how things work out for everyone in this first installment of the New Light Series, Never Got Over.

Loved it
I absolutely loved this book. There were so many secrets in this family but I loved how they always tried to work things out. They championed for each other despite the many conflicts. They learned to forgive and let go of judgemental ways. The love stories within the book were touching. I really wanted Zyah and the pastor to get together but Zyah ultimately made the right choice. And Pastor Apollo' s dilemma proved that even ministers have to stay in prayer and wait on God. Great read; I can't wait to start the next installment.

Loved this story
This book was so good! I also love that it was unpredictable. Four women who have to work on their issues in their personal lives as well as with each other. I love the trueness of the Pastors feelings on finding love and finding out that who God had for him and what he wanted was two different things. I cannot wait to read the next installment.

👍👍👍👍
Very good read. It was shocking to hear about all of the skeletons that came out of the closet but it was good that they did because it seemed to have brought the family back together. I was glad to see that Monie got some help! Ready to read the next book in this series ☺
