Esther the Queen by H. B. Moore

She is a beautiful young Jewess, content in her life of anonymity.

He is the most powerful king in the world.

When chance brings the two together, the course of history is forever altered.

An unexpected meeting between Esther and King Xerxes results in an immediate and unmistakable connection. When Esther is summoned to enter the harem—the first step toward becoming his wife—Esther is torn between her desire to be with Xerxes and the knowledge that they will forever be divided by the secret of her Jewish heritage.

Encouraged by her family to do what she must to help her people, she deftly navigates her new position in the palace, quickly becoming beloved by all, including Xerxes. But when a treacherous plan threatens to engulf the kingdom in violence, Esther must choose between love and duty.

Is she prepared to sacrifice all that she holds dear in order to save her people from certain annihilation?
