Can their epic search for true love survive a father's fury?

The daughter of King Saul, Michal lives a life of privilege--but one that is haunted by her father's unpredictable moods and competition from her beautiful older sister. As a girl, Michal quickly falls for the handsome young harpist David. But soon after their romance begins, David must flee for his life, leaving Michal at her father's mercy in the prison that is King Saul's palace.

Will Michal ever be reunited with David? Or is she doomed to remain separated from him forever?

Against the backdrop of opulent palace life, raging war, and daring desert escapes, Jill Eileen Smith takes you on an emotional journey as Michal deals with love, loss, and personal transformation as the first wife of King David.

Jill Eileen Smith has more than twenty years of writing experience, and her writing has gathered 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.

For all who like a light novel to take away on holiday and like to think about the ‘story behind the story’ this is an enjoyable book. It is not a classic, but does look at the life of David from the point of view of Michal, Saul’s daughter. Of course most of the story is conjecture – although the author is careful to include the main parts of David’s life as found in the Old Testament – and looks at how Michal and Saul reacted to David in the events. It is easy to read and if you have some holiday away time it wouldn’t go amiss in your bag. Probably more a book to appeal to ladies – but I wouldn’t want to stop men reading it as well!

A heart-rending view into the daily life of Princess Michal, daughter of King Aaul and first wife of David. This is a time of war, passion and drama, and the author has clearly done her research

A great story of redemption and restoration of the heart. After I was finished reading, I had to force myself back to the 21st century. A wonderful retelling of King David's first wife, Michal. I can't wait for the second book. Great job on researching and writing this well crafted novel.
