Bathsheba by Jill Eileen Smith

MY THOUGHTS:

I love these fictional accounts based on people from the Bible and Jill Eileen Smith is a master of writing these. I was not disappointed with Bathsheba. It was a great read that was full of details about the culture of the people of this time. I devoured it in just a few hours. If you enjoy the Bible and are interested about the people in it, you will definitely want to read this book. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Can love triumph over treachery? Bathsheba is a woman who longs for love. With her husband away fighting the king's wars, she battles encroaching loneliness--which makes it all too easy to succumb to the advances of King David. Will one night of unbridled passion destroy everything she holds dear? Can she find forgiveness at the feet of the Almighty? Or has her sin separated her from God forever? With a historian's sharp eye for detail and a novelist's creative spirit, Jill Eileen Smith brings to life the passionate and emotional story of David's most famous--and infamous--wife. You will never read the story of David and Bathsheba the same way again. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jill Eileen Smith has more than twenty years of writing experience, and her writing has garnered acclaim in several contests. Her research into the lives of David's wives has taken her from the Bible to Israel, and she particularly enjoys learning how women lived in Old Testament times. Jill is the author of the bestselling Michal and Abigail and lives with her family in southeast Michigan. To purchase this book, visit here. Blessings!
