by\u00a0Camille Eide<\/a><\/p>\n

She can\u2019t afford to open her heart to them, to him. She can\u2019t risk letting her secrets out.<\/p>\n

All too soon, the townspeople realize she\u2019s not like them and treat her with the same disdain they give the Sisters of Mercy\u2014the nuns who help Thomas and the boys\u2014and Samuel, the quiet colored boy Thomas has taken in. With the Klan presence in the town growing ever stronger and the danger to this family increasing the longer she stays, Anna is torn between fleeing to keep them safe\u2026and staying to fight beside them.<\/p>\n

Jewel of Persia<\/a><\/h1>\n

by\u00a0Roseanna M. White<\/a><\/p>\n

How can she love the king of kings without forsaking her Lord of lords?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kasia grew up in a poor Jewish home with more siblings than luxuries. But when a chance encounter forces her to the palace of Xerxes, she becomes a concubine to the richest man in the world. She alone, of all Xerxes\u2019 wives, loves the man beneath the crown. She alone, of all his wives, holds the heart of the king of kings.<\/p>\n

Traveling with Xerxes through Europe as he mounts a war against Greece, Kasia knows enemies surround her, but they\u2019re not the Spartans or Athenians. The threat lies with those close to the king who hate her people. She determines to put her trust in Jehovah\u2013even if it costs her her marriage.<\/p>\n

Years of prayers are answered when Kasia\u2019s childhood friend arrives at the palace after the war, but even as she determines to see Esther crowned in place of the bloodthirsty former queen, she knows the true battle is far from over. How far will her enemies go to see her undone?<\/p>\n

Combining the biblical account of Esther with Herodotus\u2019s Histories, Jewel of Persia is the story of a love that nearly destroys an empire . . . and the friendship that saves a nation.
