Shreveport-Bossier City, LA (1888PressRelease)
January 05, 2009 - Inspirational fiction author Monica Carter returns this month with another installment of her gripping true-to-life family dramas. Carter, whose work shows families dealing with crises in realistic but ultimately inspirational ways, shows that Christian fiction doesn't have to be boring, preachy or stiff. In fact, her characters face everyday issues -- in typical, imperfect human fashion.
Scandalous Truth is no different. It is the story of one family's struggle to face its past. Nikki is a housewife who has put her career on hold to take care of her family. She doesn't mind -- well, not too much - but sacrifices seem as if they are beginning to mount as her husband starts working longer and longer hours and sometimes she feels just a little bit like she is the only one having to give up anything.
But that's not all. The idyllic life Nikki has so carefully built is shattered when her husband runs for political office and suddenly the past she left far behind when she became a Christian resurfaces... So what if a wife has a secret or two in her past? Shouldn't love cover all? The answer will determine if this family can withstand its scandalous truth. And will make you think about your own.
Scandalous Truth has real-life drama, interesting twists and turns, all written in a conversational style. Scandalous Truth helps families look at their own issues in a slightly different light. It's easy to say what we should do, but what do we actually do when it counts?
Carter also is the bestselling author of Sacrifice the One.
