Two lovers torn apart. A world on the brink of divine revolution.
In first-century Samaria, where traditions run deep and tensions run deeper, Mara's heart belongs to Samuel—but her father has other plans. When he promises her hand to the cruel son of a High Priest, Mara dreams of love crumble. But fate has a darker twist in store: her betrothed's mysterious death forces Samuel to flee for his life, leaving Mara behind in a world growing more dangerous by the day.Their love story unfolds against the explosive backdrop of history's most pivotal moment. Through the opulent courts of King Herod to the scheming chambers of Pontius Pilate, Mara and Samuel navigate a landscape where politics, religion, and power collide with devastating consequences.
But there's another figure rising in Judea—a mysterious teacher from Nazareth whose radical message is setting hearts ablaze and threatening the very foundations of society. As Mara and Samuel's paths intersect with destiny, they find themselves pulled into events that will not only transform their lives but will be remembered for millennia to come.
Perfect for fans of "The Red Tent," "The Chosen," and Francine Rivers' "Mark of the Lion" series, this masterfully crafted tale weaves together forbidden love, political intrigue, and spiritual awakening.
Walk the ancient streets. Feel the passion and peril of a love that defied all odds. And witness the moment when divine intervention changed everything.
