About This Book

The Untold Story of Samson and Delilah ... Three women loved him. Two betrayed him. One fulfilled his destiny.

The story of Samson as you've never experienced it before, told through the voices of his mother, his wife, and Delilah herself. These women have a tale to tell. The Jewish mother who relentlessly nags her son, the young bride who marries a foreigner, and the seductress who desires only death. Meet Samson through their eyes, and you'll never read the story the same way again.

Strong man, stronger women -- Meet the Samson you never knew.

Desired tells the story of the legendary strongman through the eyes of the three most important women in his life. The fiercely loving Jewish mother who nagged him toward greatness ... and rebellion. The impoverished Philistine girl Amara, who becomes Samson's bride. And the emotionally damaged seductress—the legendary Delilah—who becomes the instrument of his destruction and the key to his tragic triumph. Poetic, meticulously researched, and jawdroppingly honest, Desired ultimately celebrates the God of Israel's ability to work mightily in spite of our human weakness.
