"Tantalizing tale of one more secret from Jasmine, the one that just might be too much for Hosea"

Fresh Fiction Review

Lady Jasmine
Victoria Christopher Murray

Reviewed by Patricia Woodside
Posted August 30, 2009

Multicultural Romance

Jasmine Cox Larsen Bush believes she's told all the secrets she could possibly reveal to her husband, Pastor Hosea Bush. She had to in order to save her marriage. But now, as Pastor Bush, is thrust into a new, unexpected role as the senior pastor, catapulting Jasmine into the role of First Lady, it seems there's one more secret to tell. Except, Jasmine will do anything to keep this last secret—the one that's certain to bring down her wedded bliss—just that, a secret. Victoria Christopher Murray has spun yet another tantalizing tale about Jasmine and her struggles to be the woman God wants her to be, even as she fights against her many enemies, including oft times, herself. Is there nothing Jasmine won't do? With this last secret, it seems there isn't. Especially not if it means giving up the mantle of First Lady, a perch from which she's determined to make people give her the respect she deserves. What makes Jasmine such an endearing character of Christian fiction is her kernel of desire to live in a manner that's pleasing to God, in spite of herself. Even as she seeks to deepen her relationship with Him, she learns that pleasing God takes more than one trip to the wellspring of life. Just as all Christians must, Jasmine must live with the consequences of past behavior while learning to walk in God's grace and mercy, accepting that although her sins are forgiven by Him, they may not all be forgotten by her fellow men and women.

SUMMARY

With her own lies, she nearly destroyed her marriage to Pastor Hosea Bush. Why, Jasmine was forced to reveal every secret she'd ever kept from her husband, right down to her real age, weight, and shoe size! She thought she had told Hosea everything. But when Jasmine is blackmailed with a terrible truth from her past that she "forgot" to tell Hosea, more than just her marriage is in jeopardy. Surprisingly, her first instinct is to tell the truth. Jasmine knows, however, that this is one part of her life that can never be exposed. Determined to keep the life she fought so hard to save, Jasmine is willing to commit any sin -- even murder -- to leave her past behind her. No one can know the truth about the First Lady of City of Lights at Riverside Church. No one can know that beneath the veneer of a redeemed Christian wife, there lies a sinner -- especially not her trusting husband.
