Temper the Wind: Days of the Judges, Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781734088175)

The city has fallen.

And the enemy is coming through the gates.

Taleh knows what it's like to be a woman of Ammon. No rights, no worth, no say. Not even over the fate of their own children. But at least she is not a slave.

Until Israel's victorious army begins searching the houses. It's just a matter of time before she is found.

What will she become then? Will they even let her live?

Javan has no family.

The Ammonites killed them all.

He at last has his vengeance. But the beautiful woman hiding in her house undermines his revenge. He can go to his devastated home alone. Or he can use an obscure law and make her his wife.

Going back to Israel is one thing. Being accepted by the village is a whole other challenge. The villagers are not happy to have an enemy in their midst. His land is worse than he remembered. And Taleh is hiding a secret.

But there is worse ahead. Unbeknownst to either of them, another soldier had also spoken for Taleh, and he will stop at nothing to get her for himself.

You will enjoy this book, because love knows no country.
