Publisher's summary

The congregation at the Freedom Temple Church of God in Christ doesn't know what to think when their pastor, Bishop Lance Howell, returns from a vacation in Jamaica with a wife in tow. As if Lady Elect Arykah Miles' false eyelashes, scarlet red fingernails, and fishnet stockings aren't flashy enough, the blond wigs and sky-high stilettos she wears send Mother Gussie Hughes and Mother Pansie Bowak into panic mode. The mothers of the church don't take too kindly to the fact that Pastor Howell chose to marry outside of the congregation. One look at Lady Arykah and the mothers know that she isn't likely to be controlled. Arykah proves that to be true when she refuses to tone down her attire. Determined to oust Lady Elect Arykah Miles, the mothers put a plan in motion to show Arykah how much she isn't liked or wanted. An all-out war ensues, and the church mothers are willing to try some pretty devious antics to get rid of Arykah. What they don't know is that Arykah is from the streets, and she fought hard to get to where she is. She's ready to prove to the whole congregation that, like it or not, she's here to stay.

Intriguing Main Character

This book was so compelling that I did not want to put it down. Lady Arykah's,confidence and self esteem will encourage all women to embrace the fact that they are fearfully and wonderfully made by the hands of God Almighty. I can't wait to read the next book in this series. This book will definitely shed light in dark places that some find difficult to discuss with others.

Awesome From Start to Finish!

The story is a must read for those who love realistic Christian fiction. The narrator's performance was stellar as she did a great job bringing the characters to life. I would love a part two to this story!

First Lady

This book was recommended by audible.. It was one of my best audible reads ever. I enjoyed the story and the church characters were sadly true to life. Arykah was removing barriers to the .Most High. Great Story!! Entertaining!

I absolutely loved this book!

If you could sum up Lady Elect in three words, what would they be?

So original, exciting, and thought provoking.

What did you like best about this story?

What I liked most was the degree of love that the bishop had for his wife and the level of friendship between Arykah and her best friend.

Which scene was your favorite?

My favorite scene was when the bishop's ex girlfriend sat in the first lady's seat.

If you could rename Lady Elect, what would you call it?

I can't think of anything better than "Lady Elect".

Any additional comments?

This story was well written. There were no holes, the writer followed through with every point. I was so caught up in the story, it was like I was watching a movie.

Haters gonna hate

I enjoyed listening to this audible book. The characters were brought to life throughout the story. Some parts of the storyline was over the top but I loved the stiletto party & the red carpet photoshoot. The reader could be heard swallowing sometimes which was a little annoying but other than that, it was a good read.
