History called her wicked. But it never told you about the women who became powerful because of her.
What if Jezebel’s greatest legacy wasn’t her downfall…but the women who rose because of her?
History remembers Jezebel as a villain.
But it forgets the women who stood in her shadow—and were forever changed.
Perfect for readers who love retellings, like Lilith, Circe, the Red Tent and the Book of Longings and those who enjoy women-centered historical fiction, and emotionally immersive stories of transformation and power.
In Bejeweled: Jezebel’s Story, a bold reimagining of the Old Testament unfolds through the intertwined journeys of three women navigating power, identity, and desire in a world determined to define them.
Jezebel enters the Israelite court as a queen—and quickly becomes a threat. Her beliefs challenge the system. Her presence disrupts control. And her refusal to shrink sets forces into motion that could destroy her.
But she is not the only one transforming.
Oriah, a young girl coming of age, begins to question the expectations placed on her as she witnesses a woman who dares to live differently.
Duna, older and shaped by survival, must confront the quiet compromises she has made in order to mentor Oriah in the ancient ways as she decides whether it’s too late to reclaim herself.
As political alliances fracture and religious tensions rise, each woman is pulled into a dangerous unfolding where love, loyalty, and identity are tested.
And in the end, each must answer:
Will I live the life I was given…or become the woman I was created to be?
If you’ve ever felt the tension between who you’ve been told to be… and who you know you are—this story will meet you there.
Step into this ancient world.
Walk beside them.
And witness what happens when women choose themselves.
