"In a world ruled by strict traditions and laws, one brave woman is willing to risk everything to earn her freedom. Perele, a young Jewish woman, was raised in an extreme Ultra-orthodox society. When she turns eighteen and her parents have a hard time finding a match for her, she is thrown into the arms of a cold and violent man, who makes her life unbearable. A forbidden chance encounter with a man and the feelings that ensue, make her begin to question everything she has ever known - and even consider that maybe, she does not have to choose this life that has been thrust upon her. But she knows that once she makes a drastic decision, there will be no way back into the arms of the Jewish community."-- Amazon.com
