Steely Gray By: Vanessa Davis Griggs

Book Description.....

"Twenty-five-year old Lilly Gray has loved to write since she was in elementary school. Her first book was published by a Christian publisher when she turned twenty-one. With a growing number of awards and accolades to show for her efforts, the single and very beautiful “dark chocolate” (as her preacher father always calls her) Lilly appears to be on track as a force to be reckoned with. Maybe that’s why an up and coming author has decided to target her as her number one rival. Whatever is going on, it’s obvious that this twenty-five year-old author who pens erotica and simply goes by the name Ebony has beef with Lilly. And Ebony is having no problems with letting the world know just how far she’ll go to take Lilly on.

Making any and all public appearances wearing various Mardi Gras’ masks and glitzy over-the-top wardrobe as well as other costumes (now a signature trademark to her overall mystique), no one (other than possibly Ebony’s publishing house and any family and friends who might know her true identity) has actually ever seen Ebony’s face.

It’s getting personal between the two, although neither author will ever seem to allow herself to be caught in the same room with the other. A strikingly handsome (an equally up and coming) twenty-eight-year-old reporter named Remington Caldwell is intrigued with both these alluring women—one a good girl and the other one bad. One seemingly an angel sent from Heaven, while the other (at times) appearing to be deployed with an assignment straight from the pits of the devil himself.

The closer Remington gets to both women, the more he discovers who, underneath it all, they truly are. One thing for certain: the two of them give a whole new meaning to the scripture referring to iron sharpening iron and steel sharpening steel. So when Remington discovers the real truth, will his love for the one he finds himself most drawn to cause him to keep the secret? Or will he break the news to his own growing base of fans? More importantly, if he does disclose it, will the truth destroy the life and the careers of both these now hugely successful authors in the process? God only knows . . . "

"Steely Gray" by Vanessa Davis Griggs

What I loved about this novel....

If you are wanting a beautifully written Christian Read ... "Steely Gray" is all of just that!  This author really keeps you turning the pages because there is some much going on with twist and turn in every chapter that will keep your attention.  I loved how this author presents a scripture that will tie in the upcoming chapter.  "Steely Gray" is one of those Christian reads that  the reader will find very 'captivating, thought provoking, encouraging and so very inspiring'  end  in the end the reader is given a awesome well written read.   This was definitely a read that what is done in the dark will come to the light...in one form or another.   The characters were for the most part well developed, well portrayed, and  believable all giving the reader a outstanding good read.  Since this isn't my first read by this author, I will only say it won't be my last.  Thank you author for giving the your readers an inspirational story that will give you something to think about long after the read.   It was so wonderful with Pastor George Landris and his wife Johnnie Mae from the Blessed Trinity Series being part of the wonderful read.  Thank you to the author for such great a edifying novels that are a blessing to all.
