"In a writing style reminiscent of Tessa Afshar, Ifueko Ogbomo spins a breathtaking tale readers won't be able to put down!" Heidi Chiavaroli, Carol Award-winning author of The Orchard House and Hope Beyond the Waves
Considered a gift from the sun god due to her arresting eyes, Asenath was veiled in childhood and destined to marry Egyptian royalty. She is resigned to a loveless future in a royal harem, when Pharaoh's shocking declaration forces her to marry the new vizier of Egypt-a mystical foreigner with powers of divination.
Known as Zaphnath-Paaneah, her husband turns out to be handsome, charming, and possibly insane since he worships an invisible god and expects her-the daughter of a high priest-to do the same. Facing a fate seemingly worse than that she grew up dreading, she desperately searches for a way out of the arranged marriage. The secrets she uncovers usher her into a world of intrigue and treachery that questions all her beliefs about men, gods, and love. Will theirs be the most monumental mismatch made in Egyptian history, or will her daring demand for a sign from his god make all her childhood fantasies come true?
Combining original poetry with well-researched history, A Divine Romance is an Own Voices retelling of a beloved Biblical tale that takes readers on a riveting journey through Ancient Egypt and introduces them to a fresh, poetic voice in Christian fiction.
"Gifted storytelling brings an intricate cast of characters to life and portrays the greatest kind of love there is . . ." Jenna Van Mourik, author of Jerusalem's Daughter
