I really enjoyed reading this book. I love the character development for both the main characters, and I love how Tessa interpreted Cyrus’s character and story!

A great read!
Another great Tesssa Afshar book! Well written and well researched biblical fiction. Good character development and weaving in of actual historical people from the Bible.
So easy to read. Couldn’t put it down.

Great Read!
I really enjoyed this book. What great characters. I was fully invested, immersed in the story. I looked forward to picking the book up each time and found time to squeeze more reading in. Full of interesting, competent but flawed characters. I really enjoyed the relationships between them all.
