Christiannewswire.co.uk – 17 October 2008 - One of the most challenging issues people face on a daily basis is dealing with temptation. In our everyday lives, we are constantly bombarded with all kinds of things competing for our attention. What do you do when the temptations of this world stare you in the face? How do you overcome temptation especially when the things that tempt you are the very things you want the most?
temptation novel by michelle daleyIn Temptation (AuthorHouse), first time author Michelle Daley takes readers on a journey of self discovery, hope and faith as she tells the story of two ordinary people faced with a series of challenging situations that leads them to question everything they have ever believed in. This debut novel tells the importance of having strong moral and spiritual values in a world where standing for something, sometimes places you on the fringe of society.

Meet Chantelle Simpson, a beautiful and talented young woman who seems to have everything going for her, until a series of tragedies threatens the very core of who she is. It is a wise friend’s nudging that encourages Chantelle to begin to rebuild her life and face up to some not-so-pretty home truths. But will Chantelle be ready to embrace a change even if it means letting go of what she believes? Can she overcome adversity and temptation or will she surrender to life’s storms?

Leyton Thomas has it all - looks, charisma, a successful career and the hottest girls on his arm but his whole outlook changes when tragedy hits his life. He finds himself on a journey to discover real fulfilment but it is no easy ride; temptation lurks around every corner, frustrating his attempts to become a better man.

Temptation is a gripping novel that shows how God’s love can provide the answers to life’s many questions.

"It’s always difficult to see a way out when you’re faced with difficult situations," says Daley. "It’s always easy to think that things can’t get better, but it can. Things can get better and I want people who read this book to know that. I want them to take away hope from this book. I want people to know that there’s a better way of life and I want people who have never really thought about The One, to consider Him.

"The One is of course God, the creator of all things – the reason why we are here. He is the only one who can drag us out of despair and disgrace. The only one we can turn to for salvation and fulfilment in this life and the only one who can be our all in all."

Temptation is a Christian novel for youthful Christians who are searching for a good faith-based novel to read. It is also aimed at young people who are not saved and is a good tool for Christians who want to introduce their friends to Christ in a non-threatening way.
