It’s not easy being a woman, least of all princess of Israel. Married as a prize, abandoned as a wife, Michal fights to claim her rightful spot next to King David, the man she loves with all her heart.
Separated by war, concubines, and kingdom politics, Michal embarks on a journey of adventure and heartache where she is befriended by a goddess-worshiping priestess and tempted by a Philistine prince.
From reading scrolls high atop the palace walls to seduction with a henna-painted body, Michal is not your ordinary Bible heroine. Join her in Michal’s Window and let her delight you with her courage, devotion, and outrageous passion in her relentless drive to win back her husband, the fiery King David.
Too strong for her time, Michal’s story resonates with women today.
“So, once I let the modern feminist inside of me relax, I realized how timely her story is, because, sadly, many of the things she has to deal with are things that women still face today.”
“As a woman, every emotion I’ve ever had was weaved in Michal, causing me to cheer for this unsung heroine.”
Watch for Rachelle’s upcoming novel,
Whole Latte Love,
an opposites-attract romance about an uptight investment banking intern with a rich fantasy life and a rebellious guitarist who works in a coffee shop and volunteers to help homeless people. It is set in Berkeley, California.
Coming soon:
Evie’s sisters, Choco and Genie find love in Books 2 and 3 of the
Sánchez Sister Series.
