<\/span><\/u> <\/p>\n

Abigail is the third wife of King David and her journey is one of heartache and shattered dreams, but in the end she grows stronger for what she has endured and her relationship to David takes an interesting turn. <\/span><\/p>\n

What price must she pay for true love?<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Her days marked by turmoil and faded dreams, Abigail has resigned herself to a life with a man she does not love. When her husband Nabal\u2019s foolish pride angers David and his men, she boldly steps forward to save her family\u2014and David, the would-be king, takes notice.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Circumstances offer Abigail a second chance at happiness with the handsome David, and she takes a leap of faith to join his wandering tribe. But her struggles are far from over. How can she share his love with the other women he insists on marrying?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>Abigail <\/span><\/i>follows the bestselling Michal<\/i> and continues Jill Eileen Smith\u2019s rich story of David\u2019s wives.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWith skill honed by years of historical research, made sharper still with a gifted passion for storytelling, Jill Eileen Smith crafts the story of Abigail<\/i> in a way that takes us deep into the heart of King David and into the heart of a woman determined to follow God\u2019s will, no matter the cost to her\u2014or to the man she loves.\u201d\u2014Tamera Alexander<\/b>, bestselling author of From a Distance<\/i> and The Inheritance<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSmith\u2019s writing swept me back to ancient days and brought Abigail and David\u2019s love story vividly to life.\u201d\u2014Deborah Raney<\/b>, award-winning author of Almost Forever<\/i> and the Clayburn Novels<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cA rich tapestry of an era filled with love and longing that rings true across the centuries.\u201d\u2014Siri Mitchell<\/b>, author of Love\u2019s Pursuit<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
