Jewel Of Persia – A Book Review

, by

Today it’s a real pleasure to review the latest release of my writing peer, and publisher, Roseanna White. One of the many things I like about WhiteFire is they publish books that some would call edgy Christian fiction–I prefer the term, realistic. The wrong things happen in life, and that’s why we need the Savior. But in WhiteFire Publishing, while these issues happen within the story, the story must always point back to the need for Jesus Christ to wash away our sins. That’s what happens within the pages of Jewel of Persia which I rated 5 stars.
