Now it’s time to take fate into her hands.\n\n1949, Jerusalem. Twenty-year-old Leah Bechor always feared she would shame her family’s legacy. For over a century, each daughter in her family was arranged to marry a respectable man from their proud Caucasus community in Jerusalem. Each one but Leah. As a daughter to an ill woman ostracized from society, Leah’s reputation left her with few hopes of ever finding a match.\n\nWhen the local matchmaker finally finds a suitor for Leah in Pini Salem, a young fisherman from Tiberias, she begins to believe that family life was meant for her after all. Leaving behind Rachel, the grandmother who raised her, and Simcha, the mother who could not, Leah hopes for a better start at life.\n\nAt first, the marriage seems picture-perfect. But by the time their daughter, Naomi, is born, Pini grows desperate for a boy. Fearing the family curse that had claimed her mother after she was born, Leah vows to protect herself at all costs. She is willing to go to unusual lengths to keep her secret, everything to avoid her mother’s tragic fate—even her crumbling marriage to Pini. As her husband grows violent, drawing the talk of the community, Leah is consumed by guilt. But can she live a lie if it can save not only her own life, but the life of her child?\n\nSpanning over a century, The Brides of Jerusalem is a poignant and heart-wrenching family saga and emotional story of womanhood, pride, and betrayal, depicting the desperate measures a brave woman is willing to take to save herself and her family.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0FKB17Y2S\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0FKB17Y2S.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Madar, Rachel\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
