How can she love the king of kings without forsaking her Lord of lords?<br><br>Kasia grew up in a poor Jewish home with more siblings than luxuries. But<br>when a chance encounter forces her to the palace of Xerxes, she becomes a<br>concubine to the richest man in the world. She alone, of all Xerxes&#39; wives,<br>loves the man beneath the crown. She alone, of all his wives, holds the<br>heart of the king of kings.<br><br>Traveling with Xerxes through Europe as he mounts a war against Greece,<br>Kasia knows enemies surround her, but they&#39;re not the Spartans or<br>Athenians. The threat lies with those close to the king who hate her<br>people. She determines to put her trust in Jehovah&ndash;even if it costs her her<br>marriage.<br><br>Years of prayers are answered when Kasia&#39;s childhood friend arrives at the<br>palace after the war, but even as she determines to see Esther crowned in<br>place of the bloodthirsty former queen, she knows the true battle is far<br>from over. How far will her enemies go to see her undone?<br><br>Combining the biblical account of Esther with Herodotus&#39;s Histories, Jewel<br>of Persia is the story of a love that nearly destroys an empire . . . and<br>the friendship that saves a nation.
