The Reluctant Rival: Leah's Story -- Mesu Andrews, Paperback

The Reluctant Rival: Leah's Story is the 17th book in the Ordinary Women of the Bible fiction series.

The moment Leah set eyes on Jacob ben Isaac, she was in love. Unfortunately, Jacob preferred her younger sister, Rachel. But when her father hatched a plan that would make Leah Jacob's wife, she agreed due to her love for him-and fear of Jacob's brother, Esau. Now, over a decade later, she is one of four wives vying for Jacob's attention-and the only wife who follows his God. Throughout the years, the boundaries between the four women have been clear. That is until Rachel births her first son, and Leah her first daughter. Joseph and Dinah are the darlings of Jacob's camp and the newest tension between rivaling sisters.

Leah fumes when she discovers Rachel teaching Joseph and Dinah about pagan gods. Will Rachel's relentless devotion to false deities poison their children-and perhaps the whole family? Can Leah keep her sister from destroying Jacob's faith in Elohim?
