About this listen

"A triumphant story in which flawed characters face real choices and must rely on a real God to save them."—MESU ANDREWS, bestselling and award-winning author

Gavriel, a soldier in the elite company of Yonatan—son of King Saul—dreams of forging his destiny through crafting weapons with his own hands. Despite earning his place among Israel's finest, he is haunted by a dark past that no distraction can dispel. When his reckless behavior crosses a line, Yonatan gives him one last mission to prove his worth: help persuade a distant Kenite tribe to sever their ties with the Amalekites.

Zahava, a gifted goldsmith hidden behind her father's legacy, lives in the shadows due to her physical affliction. Her unmatched and unrecognized talent is a closely guarded secret within her family. Disheartened by a future that seems unattainable, she resigns herself to a life of obscurity. However, when Gavriel arrives in her village, they're tangled together in ways neither could have imagined. As they navigate unforeseen dangers and enemy threats, Gavriel must confront his past and either bend his knee to the One True King or lose the woman he loves forever.

The Agape love of our God is beautifully and masterfully illustrated in this story of Gavriel and Zahava. A hero and a heroine who were broken mentally and psychologically for one and physically for the other, who come together under their Creator’s infinite wisdom and love to lead and guide and strengthen each other through their marriage. I love the way that Connilyn creates characters that are so real and for whom you can’t stop barracking for, that you want to be real and they almost are in the way they are written. This book is such a testament to the great agape that our Creator has for His creatures, whom He knows personally and by even the very number of hairs on our heads. It’s a must read and a read and re-read book for me. I can’t wait to see how the four cousins are brought back together but at the same time, as Connilyn notes in her own note in the book, it will be very hard to say goodbye to these characters. Thank you Connilyn Cossette, may God bless you always.

A perfect description of Almighty God’s great Agape for Mankind

Cleverly weaving the story of Saul’s rein into three books. All three were fantastic and as always with Connilyn Cossette this book brought the Bible alive.

Outstanding conclusion to the three stories of the cousins
