He promised her his heart. She promised him a son. But how long must they wait?
When Abram finally requests the hand of his beautiful half sister Sarai, she asks one thing--that he promise never to take another wife as long as she lives. Even Sarai's father thinks the demand is restrictive and agrees to the union only if she makes a promise in return--to give Abram a son and heir. Certain she can easily do that, Sarai agrees.
But as the years stretch on and Sarai's womb remains empty, she becomes desperate to fulfill her end of the bargain, lest Abram decide that he will not fulfill his. To what lengths will Sarai go in her quest to bear a son? And how long will Abram's patience last?
Combining in-depth research and vivid storytelling, Jill Eileen Smith brings to life the beautiful and inscrutable Sarai in this remarkable story of love, jealousy, and undaunted faith.
I LOVED THIS BOOK. I have always loved the story of Sarai, because I can relate to her. I often doubt God's timing in my life and try to do things my way. This story was a sweet new way to read about her life, and it added lovely details that I couldn't get enough of! Excellent book!
I received this book free for review from Revell Blog Tours. I was not required to post a positive review, simply an honest one.
