“Kimberla Lawson Roby is a true writer, a storyteller at the top of her game.” —Eric Jerome Dickey Alicia Black is back! The pampered, privileged daughter of the irrepressible scoundrel Rev. Curtis Black and protagonist of Kimberla Lawson Roby’s New York Times bestseller The Best of Everything, Alicia makes her triumphant return in Be Careful What You Pray For.

Morrison delivers an emotional rollercoaster of a tale of four new friends chasing after their heart's desires, no matter the cost... For Jordan, Victoria, Kingston, and Chancelor, fast-paced Atlanta offers everything their hometowns couldn't. But career success is easy compared to the city's dating scene of users, losers, and gold diggers.

Maybe they'll even find excitement and real love... An accomplished lawyer, Jordan must look hard at potential suitors. But Terrence seems to be the man of her dreams, until accusations and her career threaten to come between them...Sixty-something real estate pro Victoria thinks young men equal the satisfaction that a good Christian woman like her deserves, but anything-goes sex makes her bet more than she can afford to lose...Basketball star Kingston has the perfect life and wife, but exploring what he really wants on the downlow is a game he may not win...And for marketing guru Chancelor, the Net is a paradise of prey, but the consequences could blow more than his schemes apart. Soon enough, all four friends' lives are in danger of being upended. And the results could rack up a price no one can pay.
