LEAH

Lying in bed next to 'the man of her dreams', Leah is crippled with fear and unable to sleep. She knows that her husband Jacob is going to wake up to her, not "the woman of his dreams". Jacob worked and served Leah's father Laban for seven years to marry her younger sister Rachel, but on the night of their wedding, the brides were switched; the right man was married to the wrong bride. As Leah anticipates, his dissatisfaction is not hidden; his rejection is immediate. Seven days later, Jacob marries Rachel after promising to work another seven years for her. Leah is now left in a place of pain and bitterness. A fearsome war erupts. She is in a battle for her husband's affection - not with an enemy, but with her own sister! Will she ever be loved and accepted? This book is a fictional retelling of one of the greatest Bible stories of all time. It is a story of love, deception, betrayal, competition, heartbreak, and forgiveness. It reminds us that God has a plan and purpose for our lives. No pain is ever wasted with God!
