Avoiding Temptation

A sexy angsty second chance romance from USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde… Two years after walking out on Jack’s wedding, Lexi is finally in a good place. Her career has taken off. Her relationship is solid. Her life in Atlanta is everything she thought she wanted. Then Ramsey proposes. And Jack confides that he and Bekah are getting a divorce. Lexi begins to question everything she thought she knew about what she wanted. She has to choose her own path. That just might mean deciding, once and for all, where her heart truly lies.

I hit on her first. Realized she was my best friend Finn's little sister second. And got a bloody nose third - compliments of Finn after he watched me nearly score with the new underclassman. After all I did have a reputation on campus, word on the street was that a girl could orgasm within one minute just watching me eat Lucky Charms. You can't make this stuff up - even though it was at least four minutes and included outside circumstances. Ahem, I digress. Point is, not only did I earn the attention of the worst sort of girl for me - my best friend's only sibling - but now she's out to seduce me. Me! One of the most famous Pleasure Ponies of them all! I can't shower - she follows me to the bathroom. Literally. I can't sleep - Lucky me, she lives in the same dorm. And I can't focus on anything except for her taunting eyes every single time something goes her way. I want her, but I don't want her to know I want her, and I definitely don't want to die before graduation, which is looking more and more likely considering we can't keep our hands off each other. Something's gotta give, and I have an inkling I should probably start writing my eulogy now because that something is probably going to be me.

Although temptation is a common and well-acknowledged part of the human experience, few realize the truth behind temptation and fewer still know how to defeat it. Tempted and Tried will not reassure Christians by claiming that temptation is less powerful or less prevalent than it is; instead, it will prepare believers for battle by telling the truth about the cosmic war that is raging. Moore shows that the temptation of every Christian is part of a broader conspiracy against God, a conspiracy that confronts everyone who shares the flesh of Jesus through human birth and especially confronts those who share the Spirit of Christ through the new birth of redemption. Moore walks readers through the Devil’s ancient strategies for temptation revealed in Jesus’ wilderness testing. Moore considers how those strategies might appear in a contemporary context and points readers to a way of escape. Tempted and Tried will remind Christians that temptation must be understood in terms of warfare, encouraging them with the truth that victory has already been secured through the triumph of Christ.
