Thought for Today
"Far
away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may
not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty,
believe in them, and try to follow where they lead."Louisa May Alcott
I love all of Heather B. Moore's Book of Mormon novels, but Daughters of Jared is one of my favorites!
About the Book
Naiva, daughter of the dethroned King Jared II, lives in the shadow of
her privileged elder sister, Asherah. But when Asherah develops a secret
plot to return their father to the throne, Naiva's resentment turns to
fear. Thwarting the scheme becomes more complicated when Naiva discovers
that Akish, the first man who has shown interest in her, is an integral
part of the plan. Asherah traps Akish in a ploy to make him marry her,
breaking Naiva's heart and leaving her feeling more alone than ever.
Somehow Naiva must find the strength to stand against the encroaching
evil in the kingdom and a sister who will stop at nothing to become
queen. When Akish's wickedness escalates and threatens to destroy the
bonds of sisterhood, Naiva must decide between protecting her sister and
honoring her new belief in the true God,a forbidden belief that could
cost her life.
