Summary: Contemporary Christian Fiction
Review: In your Christian walk, there will be many TEMPTATIONs! It is important to remember that God is always by your side to guide you along the way. When you do stumble and fall, HIS WORD and prayer will help you to get back on your feet to continue your journey with the Lord.

Applause for Victoria Christopher Murray for a job well done. She was able to show the strong love in a strong Christian marriage (Kyla and Jefferson Blake united as one with God's blessing). She was able to show how strong Christians can also fall victim to the TEMPTATIONs of Satan and the steps to take to help Christians recover from these painful falls. What I enjoyed most about this novel was that Victoria Christopher Murray showed the importance of a TRUE Christian friend (Alexis Ward - God's angel), because during our times of weakness the Lord knows that sometimes we just can't seem to muster up enough strength to recover from our fall on our own. Consequently, HE will send HIS angels to watch our back and lend us a helping hand!

Excellent Novel!

Summary: Unconditional Love.....
Review: Temptation by Victoria Christopher Murray is an inspirational romance novel about forgiveness, building broken relationships and spiritual restoration. Meet Kyle and Jefferson who've been married for 16 years; they're the perfect couple until Jasmine(Kyle's good friend) decides otherwise. Will the bond that Kyle and Jefferson share be enough to keep them during the trials& tribulations that are rumbling on the horizon? Read Temptation to find out. Victoria Christopher Murray gives us realistic situations and characters in this debut novel/rewrite. At times the storyline appears trite and redundant, however, it's a believable storyline and one that's applicable to real life. In real life, we tend to rehash situations over and over until they make sense to us or become bearable. I liked the inclusion of spiritual references/bible verses which were interspersed and included in applicable sections and flowed smoothly in the body of this fictional novel. Temptation is a book that most will enjoy as it protrays black love in a marital setting that's based on a strong foundation. A marriage full of love, faith and hope in spite of deceit, betrayal and infidelity. Check out Temptation today for your own enjoyment and edification.

Summary: Short of God's Glory
Review: Ms. Murray writes a fascinating account of the way all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. Sometimes we become comfortable in our marriages and do not see the temptations that surround us. We must constantly work to include God in our relationships with our friends and with our spouses. It only takes one moment to ruin a loving relationship, but it takes many hours of prayer to resurrect it.

This story of Christian fiction rings so true to life. We have all been warned about attractive single friends, tempted husbands, and God-fearing wives, but Ms. Murray brings these characters to life in a page-turning way. Her knowlege and use of scriptures relevant to the events portrayed is commendable. I am grateful for this Christian author and for her witness.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EXCELLENT!
Review: This book is simply wonderful. Although it is touted as a Christian fiction it is a great read, filled with intrigue, wonder and the Spirit of God. Even for those who are non-believer's this book is EXCELLENT! I highly recommend this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Keeping it real about "the walk"
Review: I must admit when I was first given this book as a gift, I'd heard a lot about it; mainly that it was a "Christian novel" and that it was a good read. But being disappointed by some many other Christian novels I approached it with skepticism. Most Christian novelists either deify all of their god-fearing characters and give no credit to the characters in the novels who are lost, or they make it seem that we as Christians, have no problems. Both approaches, I believe are wrong. Thankfully, Mrs. Murray did neither. It is rare that I can identify with every character in a novel, even one out to do wrong like Jasmine, but in Temptation, it was very easy. Usually in novels, no one ever tells the "bad guy" that God loves them too, they are left to wander through the rest of the book like sheep led to slaughter, not the case in Temptation. It is refreshing to see in any form of entertainment Christians standing their ground and the lost seeking help. Accolades for Temptation.

Rating: 5 stars
