That Kiss from Heaven Fell on My Heart C. Nicole Treadwell

Nicole Treadwell is a law clerk to an ambitious judge while her unraveling personal life threatens to dash any sanity that remains. She loses hope, flirting with the idea of her demise as a still, small voice pushes her onto a path few dare to discuss openly.

Timothy Grue is a hotshot attorney. Confident and handsome, he has the world on a string, including a ?black book? that ?runneth over.?

Paths collide over an actor who chooses long-time friend ?Grue? to represent him in a lawsuit. Nicole?s boss is picked to hear the same lawsuit. Her job potentially at risk, Nicole calls Tim for a clandestine meeting, hoping that he?ll greenlight a ?harmless? solution.

Estranged, their history unleashes the unthinkable. Past secrets and deceit ensnare them to invade the present.

Race, too, muddies the water. Nicole is black. Tim is white. Their friendship dictates that anything worth keeping is tried by a faith that asks the question: What do you believe? Nicole rediscovers her faith. Timothy dismisses it. For that, both pay a high price.

A prickly commingling of secular and sacred, the road from hell to higher ground asks only if redemption can ever come too late.
