A Reluctant Queen Review and Kindle Giveaway ($150 RV) @LitFuse

About the book: A Reluctant Queen

An inspiring re-imagining of the tale of Esther, a young Jewish woman thrust from a life of obscurity into a life of power, wealth, intrigue . . . and tender love.

See the story of Esther in an entirely new way-with all the political intrigue and tension you remember, but told as a passionate and tender love story between a young man and woman. Misunderstood by many, King Xerxes was a powerful but lonely man. Esther's beauty caught the eye of the young king, but it was her spirit that captured his heart.

Imagine anew the story of Esther, one of our faith's great heroines, destined to play a key role in the history of Christianity.

Scraps of Life Book Club Review: I am a fan of Christian Historical Fiction. So given the chance to read, A Reluctant Queen, I jumped to it! This book should be considered more along the lines of Christian Fiction/Romance.  I enjoyed the story written of Queen Esther by Joan Wolf. It is a very loose following of the actual historical documents found in the Bible. So with that being said, the story was enjoyable from that perspective.
