FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Real Family Feud is Played out in Essence Bestselling Author, Patricia Haley’s Latest Release, Chosen

ChosenATLANTA, (January 15, 2009) - Have you ever heard of family feud? Well, Chosen, by Patricia Haley is real family feud. A fierce battle ignites between two families after the father leaves his wife and children for a younger woman. The older, half-brother, Don, is ‘overlooked’ and the family ministry is passed on to the younger brother, Joel. His new rise to power is met with brutal hostility.

Based on the popular biblical kings, David and Solomon, Chosen, by Patricia Haley, shows how nasty a family battle can get, and how treacherous family members can be toward each other. The saying, ‘Familiarity breeds contempt’ is played out over and over again in this compelling novel. But, will the family business be worth the fight? Or, are the brothers fighting over more than their ministry?

Praise for Chosen:
"Patricia Haley has a gold mine with this series. If I was a hat wearer, it would definitely be off to her. All I can say to her right now is, You Go Girl!"

Patricia Haley
Patricia Haley, an award winning national bestselling author, earned the title of ‘trailblazer’ after achieving remarkable success with her first faith-based novel, Nobody's Perfect. She self- published her debut novel in 1998 and immediately sold nearly 20,000 copies in an industry where selling 5,000 copies is highly regarded. Her faith-based novel was the first of its kind to repeatedly make numerous national bestsellers lists, including #1 on the Essence® bestsellers list. Her other titles include: Blind Faith, Still Waters, Let Sleeping Dogs Lie, No Regrets, and the latest release, Chosen.

Originally from Rockford, IL, Patricia now lives in Pennsylvania with her husband, Jeffrey. With an engineering degree from Stanford University and an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago, readers are often surprised to hear that Patricia is writing faith-based fiction, given her technical and business background. Beyond her literary endeavors, she is a born-again believer in Christ Jesus and has a great love for the Lord, her beloved husband, her daughter, and her extended family. She is also a member of the Delta Sigma Theta Public Service Sorority, Inc., where she has previously served as Chaplain and a committee chairperson in the Valley Forge Alumnae Chapter. As she continues to work in various venues, her desire is that God will get the glory in all aspects of her life. Look for future works from this voice on the literary scene.
