# Title Published Author Buy on Amazon
1 Temptation 1997 Victoria Christopher Murray Buy
2 The Aftermath 2017 Victoria Christopher Murray Buy

Victoria Christopher Murray published Temptation in 1997 as her debut novel, introducing readers to Jasmine Cox Larson Bush. Twenty years later, The Aftermath (2017) brought Jasmine’s story to a close. Together, these two books frame the beginning and end of a character arc that spans the entire Jasmine series.

For readers already familiar with Murray’s work, the Temptation grouping highlights just how much ground the author covered between her first book and the series conclusion. Both novels deal with choices, consequences, and the possibility of change, but the Jasmine who appears in The Aftermath is a very different person from the one readers met in 1997.
