I'm not really into fiction, Christian or otherwise, unless it is classical literature, like Grace Livingston Hill. That being said, I decided to give this book a try...I am sooo glad I did! If you are expecting a tame love story, this is not it. It is as if Peter Benchley wrote the story of Jonah. Angela Hunt writes simply, but beautifully illustrates the story of Samson and Delilah, complete with a fascinating backstory. Compassionate, yet exciting, it humanizes both characters and warns against seeking revenge and the devastating affects that can have...but it also speaks of the strength of forgiveness and the redemptive power of God's love.
"Delilah" is the 3rd book in Angela Hunt's Dangerous Beauty series that also include "Esther" and "Bathsheba"
