Genre: Christian historical fiction

Release Date: April 30, 2024

In the heart of ancient Ur, where the gods cast shadows and tradition weaves the fabric of life, Secrets of the Wildflowers unfolds the captivating tale of Miu, a spirited young woman determined to bloom amid the constraints of her culture, family, and the ancient deities that hold sway.

When tragedy strikes, and her beloved brother becomes a sacrifice to the gods, Miu embarks on a courageous journey to break free from the shackles of societal expectations and unearth her true purpose. Inspired by the resilient wildflowers that thrive against all odds, Miu is driven to forge her own path and create a name for herself. 

As Miu navigates running her own tavern, friendship with an unlikely courier, and supporting an abandoned child, she finds herself crossing paths with Abram, a figure of significance from the Bible. In their encounters, Abram imparts profound wisdom, revealing that, like the wildflowers, Miu is created to be unique. Yet, he guides her to embrace the very boundaries that enable her to flourish.

Book Excerpt

She needed fresh air. She reached for the curtain separating the office from the back alley and pulled it open. Dull. Lifeless. A little bit of stale air floated inside. Tucking her tunic under her legs, she sat down again. Setting her jaw, Miu picked up her stylus again and tried to get back to work.

“Enough daydreaming,” willing herself to focus. She had to finish these numbers, because she had to see Jara. She had seen her last week and wondered when they’d see each other again. Shifting in her seat, she began gnawing on her stylus. She needed to speak to her by the end of the week.

Jara had been allowing Miu to sit with her and observe a woman running a business. It was rare, but Ur’s government allowed god-honoring women to own certain businesses like taverns and wool-making shops. Jara allowed Miu to sit in on conversations with patrons. “Always smile, Miu,” she’d say. “It doesn’t matter if they’re man or woman or child. You make eye contact. If it’s a man, you face them. You may bow to them with respect, but you are not to show weakness. Do you understand me?”
