Chosen by Ginger Garrett
The story of a girl unsparingly plunged into heartache and chaos, who would save a nation . of Esther, who would be queen. Wrenched from a simple life for her beauty, Esther finds herself at the mercy of King Xerxes. Leaving behind her only relative, her cousin Mordecai, and her first true love, Cyrus, she is thrown headlong into the unrestrained extravagance of palace living. Quick of mind and strong in spirit, she refuses to suffer the fate of her harem sisters and boldly challenges Xerxes to give of his heart before taking his pleasure, thus sealing her place beside him a queen. While conspiracy spins its diabolical web, Esther's mind and spirit waver, and she is forced to confront the past in order to save her future-and that of an entire nation.Ginger Garrett is the bestselling author of Chosen: The Lost Diaries of Queen Esther and Dark Hour, which was named one of the top five novels of 2006 by the ECPA.
