I am reviewing a copy of The Apostle’s Sister through Bethany House and Netgalley:



Ava, daughter of Zebulun of Tarsus, has always longed for more.  What if the path she has chosen requires more than she's willing to give?




After years of being overshadowed by her brilliant brother Sha'ul, Aya  wants a chance to use her own gifts beyond being a wife and mother. When her father insists that she marry a Torah student, she reluctantly agrees.



Shaul or Paul return is a dedicated scholar who returns to Tarsus to follow the instructions of the Law and wed the woman his father has chosen to raise his profile and help him earn a seat on the Great Sanhedrin--the highest religious court in the land. But when the Nazarene, Yeshua, and his followers bring trouble to the Holy City, Sha'ul will stop at nothing to silence them.




After she and her husband move to Jerusalem, she expects to be bored in her role as wife to a Torah student. Instead, she finds herself fascinated by his studies. Then her brother makes a life-altering decision, and she must face a troubling question: Can she remain true to her beliefs and still love her blasphemous brother?



I give the Apostle’s Sister five out of five stars !



Happy Reading!
