Product Description

Jasmine Larson Bush returns to her devious ways in this tale of two marriages -- each threatened by lies and betrayal.

She took marriage vows to be honest and true, but Jasmine's still hiding secrets to keep her husband, Minister Hosea Bush, by her side. When Hosea's ex-fiancée, Natasia, suddenly appears in New York, Jasmine knows it's not a coincidence. A former manstealer herself, Jasmine is very aware of Natasia's motives -- even if Hosea is not.

Complicating Jasmine's life is the secret she's kept from her baby's daddy. Luckily for her, Brian Lewis has problems of his own. His wife, Alexis, is convinced he's cheating on her -- but Brian's real betrayal is much worse. Revealing the truth to his wife could lead him back to the biggest mistake of his life...Jasmine.

Two marriages are in desperate jeopardy. Will Jasmine be able to scheme to save her own? Or will she have to choose between protecting her past and compromising her future? Even if Jasmine and Brian find the courage to stop the lies, it may be too little, too late....

And The Truth Shall Set You Free5
There are very few sequels that I really enjoy. There are even fewer three- peats that I enjoy, but author Victoria Christopher Murray pulled out all stops with Too Little,Too Late. Jasmine Larson Bush is back and is still trying to help God with all her schemes and lies. Only, this time Jasmine's schemes and lies not only affect her life with her husband, Hosea, but they follow her across the country and Brian, her baby daddy, becomes caught up in the mix. But, as always, God shows up and reminds her that He is in charge and does not need her help.

In June 2006, Jasmine and Hosea are living the good life. They have overcome the many obstacles that caused division in their marriage in the last book. As the couple head to the altar to renew their vows and start anew, Jasmine still has a few secrets she cannot quite tell her husband. When Hosea announces that the family will be moving to Los Angeles for three months, Jasmine is worried, but confident her secrets will be safe.

Also in June 2006, Alexis follow her husband to what she suspects is a secret rendevous. Can their marriage survive when Brian's secret come to light?

In August 2006, the couples meet, and not under the best of circumstances. Hosea and Jasmine agree to meet with Brian when Alexis happens upon the scene. What she sees sends her world spiraling out of control.

Will the lives of these two couples ever be the same? You have to read Too Little, Too Late and find out the answer. Be prepared because there are some jaw dropping moments that will have you screaming, gasping and laughing out loud. I loved how Victoria wrote this novel in three parts. Jasmine and Hosea's story, Brian and Alexis' story and then the story of Jasmine, Hosea, Brian and Alexis. Also, it is always a pleasure to read about Mae Francis, a wise woman with a past like Jasmine's, who has made a complete turnaround. I highly recommend this book.

You Made Your Bed, Now Lie In It!5
Jasmine is a wicked and immoral person who gets what she wants regardless of who she has to hurt. She has done many unpleasant things to people in the past and as a result now has many old secrets. Jasmine marries, Mr. Hosea Bush, a minister, who has accepted Jasmine's devilish ways. Hosea stuck with Jasmine through good and bad times and accepted the past as the past as they tried to maintain a healthy marriage together as a family. Jasmine's daughter, Jacqueline, was the main reason that Hosea stayed with Jasmine. When Natasha reappears in Hosea's life, all hell begins to break loose. She begins to intimidate Jasmine with her little skills and tactics to gain Hosea's love. Jasmine is no fool, though. Game always recognizes game!

Brian Lewis, the father of Jasmine's child's, has problems with his wife, Alexis. She thinks that he is being unfaithful to her. Brian is forced to prove to her otherwise, and that may entail digging up old secrets from the past.

"Too Little, Too Late" by Victoria Christopher Murray is an excellent read. It is one of the best sequels I've read! This book is definitely a page turner and I will be looking forward to more of Murray's books in the future. Keep up the good work!

The Truth Shall Set You Free5
In Too Little, Too Late, Victoria Christopher Murray brings back Jasmine Larson. She is living happily with her husband, Hosea Bush. That is until the secrets that she kept from him start to appear one after the other. Not only does Jasmine have secrets, but Hosea seems to have secrets of his own. His ex-fiance, Natasia, appears as a new edition to Hosea's show, Bring It On. They are scheduled to be in Los Angeles, for a three month project. Jasmine recognizes immediately that Natasia is a woman cut from the same cloth as she. Natasia is in it to win her man back. Jasmine does all she can to stop her from breaking up her marriage.

Meanwhile, Jasmine has to deal with the deceit that has her reluctant to return to Los Angeles and running into Brian Lewis, her former lover. Brian has his own issues with being a sex-addict and trying to save his marriage with his wife, Alexis. He thinks she can handle him sleeping around more than she can handle him having a baby with Jasmine Larson. Jasmine almost broke up the marriage of her best friend.

Can Hosea forgive Jasmine, yet again, for the lies? Will Natasia succeed at getting her man back? Will Alexis be able to handle that Brian is a sex-addict AND slept with her enemy?? Murray takes us into the lives of these two couples and airs ALL of their dirt. You did not have to read the other books, Temptation or A Sin and A Shame, in the life of Jasmine, to know what is going on to be TOTALLY invested in the characters. You do not know whether to root for Jasmine to win or to have her really pay for all of her deceit. But you will love every minute of this book! I could not put the book down. Murray combines true life drama with biblical principles. Too Little, Too Late is EXCELLENT!
