SINGLE, PREGNANT and PREACHING Melvina L Carpenter

"Sex before marriage is wrong!" Emerald, the faithful church girl, and preacher's daughter heard this over the pulpit often. However, at two o'clock am, what she heard went in one ear and out of the other. She loved the Lord but she couldn't resist Tony, her dark chocolate fiancé of six foot seven inches tall. The thought of him made her melt! However, trouble comes when she finds out that she's pregnant just two weeks before her initial sermon. Emerald deals with the church condemning her, her family's disappointment in her and Tony's crushing words. Rayne is also in the picture. He's Emerald's friend of over four years. When he proclaims his love for her, Emerald faces a true battle between Tony and Rayne, along with her flesh and her spirit. Tony turns out to not be the person he says he is. Loving him could possibly cost all of them their lives!
