Better Late Than Never

By: Kimberla Lawson Roby

Narrated by: Peter Jay Fernandez

In this stunning conclusion to the bestselling Reverend Curtis Black series, Curtis's secret past returns in an unwelcome--but ultimately healing--visit.

Rev. Curtis Black is no stranger to scandal. Throughout the decades, he has done much in the public eye, both good and evil. But what most people don't realize is that Curtis has been hiding a horrific childhood that has affected him in countless, unspeakable ways.

His buried past resurfaces when his estranged sister becomes alarmingly ill and his youngest child, twelve-year-old Curtina, becomes the kind of problem daughter whom he never imagined she could be. This is only the beginning.

The horror of Curtis's childhood secrets, as well as Curtina's wild and rebellious behavior, takes a critical toll on Curtis and the entire Black family. All the public scandals they've experienced over the years now seem like child's play compared to the turmoil they are facing in private. Who could have known that the deepest wounds would come from within?

The end is finally here

I have read every book in the Curtis Black series and it has finally ended!! It is bittersweet. There were some great messages in this book and it was ok. It did not have too much drama like the previous ones but I still liked it. I finished in one day.

Excellent

I have read all of Kimberla Lawson Roby's books. I have enjoyed most of them. However, this one is one of her best. Ms. Roby is at the top of her game. I hated for it to end. I wish this was not the conclusion of the Curtis Black series. I'm going to miss him!

Wow sets

I waited a while to listen to this book because I knew that Curtis Black would be taking his final bow
I was not disappointed at all every scenario I can empathize it was as if it was happening to me and I was dealing with those everyday life issues. Bravo
