Tangled: The Voice of Potiphar's Wife
Potiphar’s WifeA novel of beauty, silence, and sacred fire.
“They say desire begins in the body. Mine began in silence—like ivy creeping over locked gates.”
She was trained to be beautiful, never heard. Painted like a goddess, never touched. Named for devotion, but burned with longing.
Potiphar’s wife has long been remembered as a warning—dangerous, deceitful, seductive. But what if there was more beneath the silence? What if her story wasn’t simple? What if her ache, her restraint, her unraveling were holy ground?
Set in the golden shadows of ancient Egypt, TANGLED reimagines the voice of one of the most misunderstood women in Scripture. This poetic, immersive novel invites readers into the life of a woman shaped by image and protocol, who dares to hunger for more than ceremony. Trained in elegance but aching for authenticity, she walks a knife’s edge between reverence and rebellion.
When a Hebrew servant enters her world—quiet, unreadable, unbending—her tightly woven life begins to fray. What begins as observation becomes obsession. What was once survival becomes fire.
Was it temptation? Or was it the first time she’d ever been seen?
From the author of Wild Root comes a hauntingly lyrical story of misjudged women, misunderstood fire, and the sacred tension between longing and restraint.
Perfect for readers of Tessa Afshar, Francine Rivers, and biblical fiction that feels both ancient and eerily present.
