Book Description
Bestselling Author Lynn Austin Launches New Biblical Saga After years of watching his children and grandchildren wander from their faith, Iddo's prayers are answered: King Cyrus is allowing God's chosen people to return to Jerusalem. Jubilant, he joyfully prepares for their departure, only to learn that his family, grown comfortable in the pagan culture of Babylon, wants to remain. Zechariah, Iddo's oldest grandson, feels torn between his grandfather's ancient beliefs and the comfort and success his father enjoys in Babylon. But he soon begins to hear the voice of God, encouraging him to return to the land given to his forefathers. Bringing to life the biblical books of Ezra and Nehemiah, Return to Me tells the compelling story of Iddo and Zechariah, the women who love them, and the faithful followers who struggle to rebuild their lives in obedience to the God who beckons them home.

PROLOGUE "I lost it. I lost the baby, Zeke," Brooke croaked. "No. No. No," was all Zeke could say as he cradled Brooke's head against his shoulder. They'd been through so much and it finally seemed that everything was coming together. Their wedding was less than three months away. Both of their careers were booming. And they were expecting their first child together. Brooke's pregnancy had been a surprise – a welcome one. Nothing could touch them. They were the golden couple again. Brooke and Zeke … as perfect in the circle of their love as it appeared from the outside. *** "Were you really ready for fatherhood Zeke?" Brooke asked. "How could you ask me that?" he said. "I wanted our baby more than anything." "It's just that you've seemed so … I don't know, carefree since …. since it happened," she finished. Brooke couldn't bring herself to say the word 'miscarriage.' She just couldn't. "Don't do this Brooke. … Don't tear us apart. I couldn't stand to lose you again," Zeke said. But would he feel the same way if she couldn’t give him the one thing he wanted … a child. After two miscarriages, Brooke was afraid that she may never be able to give him his own child. And after he'd lost his first son to another man, Brooke knew adoption wasn't high on Zeke's list of options for fatherhood. Would she alone be enough for him? Could he be happy in a childless marriage, or would it rip them apart – if not now, then later? "I can't live in constant fear of losing him," she whispered to herself. "I just can't." ******************* Relevant Search Terms: interracial romance, multicultural romance, african american romance, steamy romance, short story romance, womens fiction, chicklit, kindle romance, short fiction, single author fiction, contemporary romance
