To Dwell among Cedars by Connilyn Cossette

Book Description
Eight years ago, when the Philistines stole and then surrendered the ark of the covenant back to the Israelites, Eliora left her Philistine homeland to follow the ark to the community of Kiryat Yearim. There, the family she was adopted into has guarded the ark at the top of a mountain in seclusion. 
Ronen is a Levite musician determined to secret away the ark to a more fitting resting place, watched over by priests who would restore the Holy of Holies. He never expected that the Philistine girl he rescued years ago would now be part of the very family he's tasked to deceive.
As Ronen's attempts to charm Eliora lead them in unexpected directions, betrayal leaves Eliora with strained family ties and Ronen questioning his own loyalties. Ultimately, Eliora and Ronen are caught up in the battle for the soul of Israel and its future under the leadership of Samuel, the last judge before the era of the kings begins.

My Review

This is another wonderful book by Connilyn Cossette! The characters were great, and I really liked how Eliora and her brother came from such a different background because of being Philistines. It gave the story a very interesting point of view, and I really enjoyed getting to know them.

The plot was also really interesting, and had some great twists and turns to keep you coming back for more. Which is good, because you have got to see the surprising place this story goes! And now I can not wait for the next book to come out!

I received this book free through NetGalley from Bethany House Publishers for my honest review. The opinions are my own.
