About This Book
Flirtin' with Jesus is the first book of The Ascension Trilogy. Conrad LaGrone, a middle aged divorc, is one step from homelessness. Plagued from a life of bad choices, he meets the dynamic and loving Bonnie Adair who holds out a ray of hope to him, that he might set his life on the right path. However, Detective Dietzel, a dirty cop, Barry Brantley, a sinister crime boss, and the Reverend Isaiah "Bubba" Brizelle, a dubious evangelical preacher, have designs to derail Conrad from obtaining his new lease on life.
The story is peppered with sex and violence, as well as "sacred" institutions fraught with corruption, which the reader may find unsettling, though equally amusing. The reader is riveted to the character of Conrad LaGrone, at times commiserating with his failings, and at other times, cheering him on to success.
