He was everything she despised.
She was everything he needed.
Orphaned and exiled, Esther is desperate for a quiet life with her adoptive father, Mordecai. When she refuses to compete with Persia's eager virgins to become King Xerxes' next wife, she's forced into the harem to gratify his outrageous whim. There she discovers a depth of humanity, but fears it may only be part of the snare. Esther wants to trust the harem master whom her father scorns, but their rivalry threatens to jeopardize her. Who is Xerxes at heart: poetic philosopher or brutal savage? When Esther's people are threatened with genocide, will she arouse his zeal for justice, or ignite his lust for war?
*EUNUCH'S DAUGHTER *reveals the Esther you've never read before, the one you'll never forget.
What readers are saying:
-I'm not reading this... I'm living it.
-As I've read, I've giggled, laughed, felt sorrow and anguish for Esther and Mordecai, and I've had tears rolling down my face 2 or 3 times. I've felt a deep concern and suspense. I've even blushed once.
-Reads like historical fantasy.
-This story has been an emotional journey. Amazing
-I'm loving the book so much.
- As good as any historical fiction I've ever read.
-Fantastic ending!
-A pleasure to read.
