Grace Miller wanted a quiet new life.
A new church. A fresh start. A place where her past mistakes could finally stop haunting her.

New Dawn Evangelical Church seemed perfect, until the pastor noticed her.

Pastor Daniel Cole is charismatic, gentle, adored by the congregation. He is also far too interested in Grace from the moment she arrives. He calls her his “chosen helper,” pulls her into private meetings, burdens her with confidential notes, and tells her God has “plans” for her. The attention feels flattering, until it becomes dangerous.

Whispers start. Messages arrive from unknown numbers. A photo of Daniel at a hotel with a young woman. A confession card that hits too close to home. A flash drive slipped into Grace’s Bible containing footage that should never exist inside a church.

And then someone breaks into her apartment.

As secrets unravel, Grace discovers Daniel has a long pattern of grooming vulnerable women under the guise of spiritual care, and the church hierarchy will do anything to protect him. Evidence vanishes. Security footage is wiped. Victims are silenced. Even Daniel’s wife begs Grace to stay quiet “for the good of the ministry.”

But when another woman comes forward, Grace refuses to be another silent casualty. With the help of Ethan, Daniel’s guilt-ridden nephew, she risks everything to expose the truth. Daniel grows more desperate, more reckless, and more convinced that Grace is the one temptation he cannot let go.

When the explosive confrontation at Renew is streamed onto the sanctuary screens for the entire church to see, Daniel’s world shatters. And so does Grace’s.

Now the congregation is divided. Leadership crumbles. Families fracture. And Grace must rebuild her life in the rubble. She is determined that no one else will be taken in by a man who claimed divine authority while preying on the vulnerable.

The Pastor’s Favorite is a fast, twisty, emotionally charged thriller about spiritual deception and religious power.
