Publisher's summary

A Complex and Compelling Glimpse at One of the Bible's Baddest Girls

Life is not easy in Philistia, especially not for a woman and child alone. When beautiful, wounded Delilah finds herself begging for food to survive, she resolves that she will find a way to defeat all the men who have taken advantage of her. She will overcome the roadblocks life has set before her, and she will find riches and victory for herself.

When she meets a legendary man called Samson, she senses that in him lies the means for her victory. By winning, seducing, and betraying the hero of the Hebrews, she will attain a position of national prominence. After all, she is beautiful, she is charming, and she is smart. No man, not even a supernaturally gifted strongman, can best her in a war of wits.

interesting backstory

Angela's way of telling this biblical story is true in some forms and well-engineered in others. It is interesting to see how she has devised a backstory so well thought out.

Light, easy read

This is a work of fiction based on the Bible account of Samson and Delilah. The story line was ok as stories go, I had issues with the readers. Samson did not match my minds eye of Samson.

Delilah

This was a very good story about the interaction between Samson andDelilah. Although familiar with this Bible account, it really filled in the gaps. I enjoyed meeting the widow as well as the brothers.

Grace given freely

I like the point of view of where the book comes from where it’s the point of view of Delilah but then the history that’s interwoven into the book is also good to see what life was really like in the Old Testament

Thought Provoking

I grew up hearing the story of the Delilah and Samson. This gives you another side of Delilah and leaves you wondering about her true story. We all have a story. Excellent narration and another novel by Angela Hunt.
