She's had celebrity, isn't hurting for money, and is living peacefully single in Charlotte, North Carolina. Still, Sonya Richardson can't resist starring on a hit reality dating show to give America a taste of what a real black woman is like. And this former pro athlete is breaking all of &quot;Hunk Or Punk's&quot; rules, refusing to bling-up like a diva, and tackling whatever high-octane drama her suitors have in store. But one contestant is throwing Sonya off her game. He's surprisingly kind, way too easy to spill her secrets to--and giving her the kind of hope she hasn't felt in a long, long time. . .<br><br>Widowed former pastor John Bond knows he's the show's &quot;designated white guy,&quot; expected to fail every challenge and be gone in a month. He also knows he has to take risks to change his lonely life and find love again. The odds may be against him, but Sonya's honesty and resourcefulness are inspiring him to do whatever it takes to stay in the running, win her heart. . .and prove their dreams can be a reality.

A Good Man is a good find...

From the moment I read the first page, I was completely hooked. I've been reading Mr. Murray's works for a while and when I happened upon this gift, I couldn't resist diving right into it. I love the story of John and Sonya how they both crave the simple life but also crave someone to spend it with. John's story broke my heart but as I continued to read, I was glad that he was taking a step out on faith, hoping that he'd find what he was looking for. This story was filled with such sweet and tender moments, I almost forgot that I was reading an IR romance. With so many IR stories out there that focus on the sex more than the story behind the sex, A Good Man was a nice, refreshing departure. It's how real relationships are made and cultivated. This book was highly enjoyable and one of my favorites ( behind both Renee and Jay books and The Real Thing). Mr. Murray knows how to weave a beautiful story and does it so very well. Excellent work!
