ReShonda Tate Billingsley

You might remember ReShonda Tate Billingsleyas a local news reporter. Billingsley gave up the news game awhile back in order to write novels full time. It was a good move. She now has 18 titles to her name, many of them best-sellers and two in the works to become movies. Her latest release, The Devil Is a Lie, is sure to follow suit. Lieis the story of a Houston woman who wins $16 million in the Texas Lottery. That's surprise No. 1. Surprise No. 2 is her ex-husband showing up and saying the divorce was never finalized and he'd like half the winnings, thank you very much. 7 p.m. Houston Public Library, 500 McKinney.
