Above Bold: Loving (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781952955648)

A modern retelling of the book of Esther, set inside a presidential campaign.

When presidential frontrunner Lucas Roberts ends his engagement on live television, his campaign turns the scandal into a spectacle: a nationwide search for the woman who will stand beside him as First Lady. Millions of women enter. Erica Duncan never meant to be one of them.

An orphan raised by her devoted cousin, Erica survived a terrorist attack that still haunts her, in a nation growing openly hostile to people of faith. She has no interest in politics and no illusions about the powerful man at the center of it all. Yet as she is drawn deeper into the contest, she begins to wonder if she has been placed here, now, for a reason far greater than a crown.

As faith collides with power and a quiet courage is called to rise above bold, Erica must decide what she is willing to risk, and Who she is willing to trust, when everything is on the line.

Above Bold: Loving is the second novel in Caroline DeBerry's Above Bold series, a clean, faith-filled reimagining of the story of Esther for today. Full of romance, conviction, and hope, it is perfect for readers who love inspirational fiction, biblical retellings, and stories of ordinary women called to extraordinary courage. Ideal for women's book clubs and Bible classes, with a companion discussion guide available.
