New York Times Bestselling Author's Newest
Biblical-Era Series
Five decades before the birth of Christ, Chava, daughter of the
royal tutor, grows up with Urbi, a princess in Alexandria's royal
palace. When Urbi becomes Queen Cleopatra, Chava vows to be a
faithful friend no matter what--but after she and Cleopatra have an
argument, she finds herself imprisoned and sold into slavery.
Torn from her family, her community, and her elevated place in
Alexandrian society, Chava finds herself cast off and alone in
Rome. Forced to learn difficult lessons, she struggles to trust a
promise HaShem has given her. After experiencing the best and worst
of Roman society, Chava must choose between love and honor, between
her own desires and God's will for her life.
You Don't Know Her Name. The World Remembers Only Her
Greatest Friend: Cleopatra.
Raised together in the Alexandrian palace, Chava, the
Hebrew daughter of the royal tutor, and Urbi, an Egyptian princess,
become as close as sisters--and rivals with their dreams of
greatness. When Urbi unexpectedly ascends the throne as Queen
Cleopatra, Chava believes their bond is strong enough to survive.
But absolute power has a way of changing everything.
The ultimate betrayal rips Chava from everything she's ever known
and sends her to the lowest rung of Roman society where she must
choose between love and honor, between her own desires and God's
will for her life, if she hopes to rise again.
