Daughter of the King

This book is an excellent story about Princess Michal and her relationship with King David. The research is phenomenal, and the story twists have given possible answers for questions I'd had. I recommend this book any day of the week. Keep up the fantastic work, ladies.

Daughter of the King

Initially, the stunning cover art drew me to Daughter of the King, but the strength of the story kept me captivated. Against a vibrant backdrop of sights and sounds, Princess Michal--daughter of King Saul--recounts the passionate love she shared with David on his journey from shepherd to King of Israel. My heart soared when Princess Michal married her true love, and then shattered when she was forced to share her husband with the other palace wives and concubines. But for better or worse, she honored her marriage to David, the husband of her youth. Steadfastly, Michal believed the pain of loneliness did not compare with the glory of loving a king with a heart after God's own. I recommend this book to all readers who have a love for scripture and a yearning for romance. Well done, Carlene and Sharon.

Daughter of the King

This is a very good book. I stayed up to three in the morning reading. You will not be disappointed if you get any of Ms. Havel's books.

Wow!

This is a historical and accurate theologically. It's interesting to see how women lived during Old Testament days. Saul, the King gives his daughter as a prize to marriage to David, but she loves him--even to the point of defying her father. Wonderful love story. Don't miss this one!

Awesome Story

This is such an interesting story which sends the reader to the Word. Reminds me of The Red Tent.
