About
First Second Coming is an award-winning supernatural romantic suspense novel in which Earth's variously named god retires. In 2027, after 2,000+ years of service, he is replaced by a new Supreme Being – a planetary turnaround specialist who must decide whether to include mankind in his plan to restore the world's luster. This new deity introduces himself to the world through an unexpected appearance on the Ram Forrester Hour talk show.
Ram and co-host Brendali Santamaria, an atheist and devout Catholic respectively, are shocked. Viewers worldwide are too, when God informs them that a 60-day conference will take place in Los Angeles to determine the fate of humanity. To prove homo-sapiens are capable of helping this God implement his plan, religious violence must be eliminated forever before the conference ends. Failure means extinction.
Soon after God designates Ram and Bren as the conference's only authorized media reporters, love blooms. The harried couple must attend by day, do their show at night and outwit a fanatical group hell bent on killing them for promoting a false god. As conflicts intensify within the conference, the chances of mankind's survival dissolve. The relationship Ram and Bren build with the new God puts the burden of saving humanity, and their romance, in their hands.
