Synopsis

Zipporah is thirteen when the Spirit descends upon her, opening her eyes to a world beyond the physical goings-on of the villa outside Rome she has always called home. Within hours, she learns what serving the Lord can cost. Forever scarred after a vicious attack, she knows her call is to use this discernment to protect the Way. She knows she must serve the rest of her life at Tutelos, where the growing Roman church has congregated. She knows her lot is set.

Yet is it so wrong to wish that her master, the kind and handsome young Benjamin Visibullis, will eventually see her as something more than a sister in Christ?

Samuel Asinius, adoptive son of a wealthy Roman, has always called Benjamin brother. When their travels take them to Jerusalem for Passover, the last thing he expects is to cross paths with the woman who sold him into slavery as a child the mother he long ago purged from his heart. His sister, Dara, quickly catches Benjamin's eye, but Samuel suspects there is something dark at work.

When Dara, a fortune-teller seeking the will of a shadowy master determined to undermine the Way, comes into the path of Zipporah, a whirlwind descends upon them all.

Oh my goodness, y'all... I cannot recommend this book enough. It is one of the best books I've read this year. I had the chance to read it before its publishing date and the worst part was not being able to share it with others immediately. Mrs. White is a masterful storyteller and has written a doo......more

Goodreads review by Rachelle on November 08, 2014

I loved A Stray Drop of Blood for the same reason I now love A Soft Breath of Wind. The rich history. The hope-filled love story. The sweeping way Roseanna White fills a novel with faith. Truth? I expected to not like A Soft Breath of Wind as much as I loved A Stray Drop of Blood. Sequels usually mak......more

Goodreads review by Stephanie on November 19, 2014

Those who have loved Roseanna M. White's other Biblical love stories, A Stray Drop of Blood and Jewel of Persia, won't be disappointed by her latest. It has the spiritual depth and rich Biblical history of her previous books, as well as a gutsy heroine and daring plot. Zipporah is one of my favorite......more
