Meet the legendary
Samson as you've never known him before … through the eyes of the three women
who loved him.
Before Samson was an
Old Testament legend, he was a prodigal son, an inexperienced suitor, a
vengeful husband, and a lost soul driven by his own weakness. This is his story
as told by three strong women who loved him—the nagging, manipulative mother
who pushed him toward greatness, the hapless Philistine bride whose betrayal
propelled him into notoriety, and the emotionally damaged seductress—the famous
Delilah—who engineered his downfall and propelled him to his destiny. Desired celebrates
the God of Israel
About the author:
Hi friends,
I'm a novelist who occasionally turns my research into a nonfiction book for my readers. I have a special passion for history, with a love of women's history and biblical stories.
I'm a novelist who occasionally turns my research into a nonfiction book for my readers. I have a special passion for history, with a love of women's history and biblical stories.
I began writing after a devastating car accident which plunged me into darkness, depression and fear. I was told I could never have children and began a journey through infertility and miscarriages. During this time, I could find nothing to comfort me on the bookshelves. I decided to write what I needed to read. One year later, I had an agent and a deal. (The book, Moments for Couples Who Long for Children, is out of print now and available only on my website, gingergarrett.com)
Since then, I have written novels about women in history that have forever touched our modern lives: Ane Boleyn, who fought to give us the right to read(Shadow of Lions), Queen Esther of Persia (Chosen: The Lost Diaries of Queen Esther), and the women who survived the terror of the Black Death (In the Arms of Immortals) plus the fascinating and powerful ancient beauty secrets of biblical lands (Beauty Secrets of the Bible).
My hope is that when you turn the last page of one of my books, you feel strengthened for the journey ahead and that I have found more than a reader: I hope I've found a friend.
