Beautiful Rachel can't wait for her older half-sister Leah to wed and move out of the household. Unknown to either of them, Jacob is making his way to their home, trying to escape a past laced with deceit and find the future God has promised him. What will treachery make of their lives?
Beautiful Rachel wants nothing more than for her older half sister Leah to wed and move out of their household. Maybe then she would not feel so scrutinized, so managed, so judged. Plain Leah wishes her father Laban would find a good man for her, someone who would love her alone and make her his only bride. Unbeknownst to either of them, Jacob is making his way to their home, trying to escape a past laced with deceit and find the future God has promised him.
But the past comes back to haunt Jacob when he finds himself on the receiving end of treachery and the victim of a cruel bait and switch. The man who wanted only one woman will end up with sisters who have never gotten along and now must spend the rest of their lives sharing a husband. In the power struggles that follow, only one woman will triumph . . . or will she?
Combining meticulous research with her own imaginings, Jill Eileen Smith not only tells one of the most famous love stories of all time but will manage to surprise even those who think they know the story inside and out.

I can't decide whether I liked this book or not. From a literary and biblical viewpoint, it was incredibly well written with, clearly, lots of research going into all the details written about and well-developed characters. I didn't particularly enjoy the story, with the sisters at each others throats for most of the story and their husband and everyone else caught in the middle, though that fault doesn't lie with the author since it is taken straight from the Bible. Despite what the title suggests, the story is written from both Rachel and Leah's points of view. I'd recommend it if you're wanting to delve deeper into the lives and world of the two sisters but if you're looking for a feel-good story, I'd recommend looking somewhere else.
