Are you lost in the masquerade of fear, depression, addiction, insecurity, idolatry, anger, or confusion? The Roach Princess is written from the heart of a woman who came from the darkest captivity—bound to all of the above—and into the glorious light and freedom of operating in the love of God the Father. The author beautifully shares her journey and guides you through a series of steps that lead you out of any dark areas in your life. Each step builds upon the last, with a biblical practice at the end of each chapter to help you apply the principles to your life for your total healing. You are tenderly encouraged to allow the fullness of God’s Holy Spirit into your life as you learn obedience to God’s ways. After achieving liberty from each shackle, you are guided toward finding your gifts and bearing fruit for the Kingdom, which will keep you healthy while enriching and refreshing you from the inside out.

She was far more than just a pretty face. . . . Although Nefertiti is the dutiful daughter of a commoner, her inquisitive mind often gets her into situations that are far from ordinary, like receiving secret lessons from a scribe. And her striking beauty garners attention that she'd just as soon avoid, especially when it's her aunt, the manipulative Queen Tiye, who has set her sights on Nefertiti. The queen wants to use her niece as a pawn in her quest for power, so Nefertiti must leave her beloved family and enter a life filled with courtly intrigue and danger. But her spirit and mind will not rest as she continues to challenge herself and the boundaries of ancient Egyptian society. With control of a kingdom at stake and threats at every turn, Nefertiti is forced to make choices and stand up for her beliefs in ways she never imagined. As she did in Nobody's Princess and Nobody's Prize, author Esther Friesner offers readers a fresh look at an iconic figure, blending historical fiction and mythology in a heady concoction.
