Publisher's summary

For 16 years, Kyla and Jefferson have enjoyed a seemingly perfect marriage. They share a wonderful daughter, a passionate love for each other, and a deep spirituality. But their happiness is shattered when Kyla finds Jefferson in bed with another woman - a woman who happens to be her childhood friend. If there’s any hope to repair their broken marriage, they will have to trust their faith like never before. Temptation is a moving story of contemporary people struggling through one of life’s most difficult obstacles - and trusting in God to steer the way. Narrator Caroline Clay captures all the emotions of loved ones fighting to preserve their sacred bond.

But GOD

A depiction of life’s trials and tribulations with real emotion that that relies on the surrender and the Word of GOD. Loved the ending.

It was ok...

I did like the book but nothing wowed me like other books do. It was all pretty predictable. I easily got distracted at different times in the book because it bored me. It did show a great example of how to handle things in a Godly way even though it can be a tough situation sometimes. Other than that it was an Ok book.

Marriage can be good

Would you consider the audio edition of Temptation to be better than the print version?

I did not get the print version but I imagine the audio would be better. The dialogue was really good so the audio version brings the characters to life.

Would you be willing to try another book from Victoria Christopher Murray? Why or why not?

I would read more stories by this author. The characters were relatable and simply human. Murray describes each character's emotions well and draws you in to them. You sympathize with all of them equally.

What aspect of Caroline Clay’s performance would you have changed?

Clay's performance was fantastic. Her ability to convey three different men's voice was incredible.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were several moving moments in the piece.

Good theme. Performance was outstanding .

The theme was good and necessary. I found it a bit hard to relate to the gullibility of the main character, Kyla. This subject should definitely be discussed in the church community. I would recommend this book. The narrator was amazing!

Jasmine's personality really took a twist

I liked the book, but I need the backstory on what happened between Jasmine and Kenny. I know in the first book Roman was her "internal" issue, but did Kenny find out about that? Like I need the backstory that leads up to the divorce and Jasmine's disposition towards Kyla. Because in this book she was a totally different person. I mean she was cutthroat, deceitful, And just plain nasty.
