Standing in the massive shadow of his famous father, young king
Solomon wavers between fear and bravado, wisdom and folly. In the
uncertain world of alliances and treachery, Solomon longs for peace
and a love that is true and pure--a love that can be his
cornerstone.
A shepherdess in the northern city of Shunem, Arielah remembers the
first time she laid eyes on Solomon in Jerusalem when she was just
seven years old. Since then she has known that it was her destiny
to become his bride. When her father, a leader of their tribe,
secures a promise from King Solomon to marry Arielah as a treaty
bride to help unite the kingdom, it seems her dreams may come true.
But how can this simple shepherdess live as part of Solomon's
harem? Can Solomon set aside his distractions to give himself
completely to just one woman? Or will he let duty, deception, and
the daily routine divide his heart?
Mesu Andrews expertly weaves the words of the Song of Solomon into
this touching story of the power of love. Readers will be
transported from the glowing fields of Shunem to the gleaming city
of Jerusalem as they experience this rich and textured novel from a
master storyteller.
