This biblical fiction story is based on the true story of Ittai the Gittite and has a generous dusting of romance. Though this is slower than most of my book reviews it still leaves you biting your nails wondering what will become of Romma and Irri. The biblical accuracy and attention to detail are stunning and I would recommend this to adults who love romance and King David’s story.
Scoresheet.
Spice/Romance: medium. Content warning, There is a closed-door scene explaining what David’s son Absalom does with his concubines that were left in Jerusalem
Violence: mild. No gore but there is mention of bloody wounds and battle.
Morals/Worldview: Christian/good morals
Recommended reading age: 18+
