Secrets, secrets are no fun!
Well, they aren’t until you find out that your favorite pastor is a polygamist!
It’s the gist of “Sister Wife Murder,” which teases spice, scandal, and a lot of danger!

Polygamy is a Hot Button Topic
Polygamy is on a lot of minds lately, as we see during entire franchises devoted to plural marriages and scandalous news bits.

And Lifetime never wastes time plunging into the nitty-gritty of it all (or providing us with an exclusive sneak peek)!

We have a delicious cast and an irresistible plot that’ll have us shoveling popcorn in our mouths and relishing all the drama — and murder.
Ripped from the Headlines
It’s another nail-biting Ripped from the Headlines film, but that’s part of the excitement, am I right?
Based on real events, Sister Wife Murder will center on a gorgeous woman seeking a deeper connection with God and a new church home.
Unfortunately, she may get more than she bargained for with that journey.
Dia Nash — who is every bit the spitting image of her multitalented mother, Niecy Nash — plays Chloe, who is barely embarking on her spiritual journey when she attends church for the first time one random Sunday.

Chloe doesn’t anticipate that the devilishly handsome pastor Caleb runs this particular House of the Lord.
It’s a delight to see the impossibly handsome Shadowhunters cast member Matthew Daddario playing a selfish pastor who proclaims that God told him he could be selfish and take on multiple wives.

Is Collecting Wives God-Approved?
We’re not one to question the Big Guy, but he probably has nothing to do with Caleb collecting wives like Pokemon.
Chloe develops a crush on Caleb and discovers that he’s been seeing another woman behind his wife’s back, or so she thinks.
She’ll quickly learn about Caleb’s lifestyle choices, which you can glimpse in our exclusive sneak peek.
After Chloe learns this secret after meeting his first wife, played by Hallmark alum Ashley Williams, and interacting with his second wife, Margo (Ashley Dulaney), it seems Chloe wants in on some of this action.
The Deadly Results
And, of course, by “action,” we mean a steamy love affair with the man of the soiled cloth, Caleb.
However, becoming part of this plural family may have some deadly results!
If the first look at Chloe and how she approaches Caleb in our sneak peek is any indicator, Chloe is spunky.
And that may bode well for her if she doesn’t want to become a victim!
But who should she be watching out for? It’s hard to say!

We can tell that Caleb is a charmer, and he doesn’t hesitate to bring up Biblical men who had partaken in polygamy.
It mollifies Chloe and challenges what she believes as a fledgling woman of faith.
