Publisher's Synopsis
When Lee Ann Revell, a newspaper reporter for the Charleston Courier, receives an assignment to interview Rabbi Jacob Rabinowitz for a story on latch-key kids in 1999, she feels an immediate attraction to the tall, dark, and handsome man.
Lee Ann and the Rabbi are opposites. He, of course is Jewish, and she was raised Southern Baptist. She wore her blonde hair in a French braid, and he wore a yarmulke that did not conceal his luxuriant black hair. The rabbi is a Yankee, and she is as Southern as corn bread. In the South, that difference could be as important as religious beliefs. Even though there are differences, the couple finds themselves drawn to each other, despite the many taboos, including the fact the rabbi is already married. Lee Ann and Jacob fall deeply in love.
Set in colorful Charleston, South Carolina, Her Rabbi, a short story, offers a look at forbidden romance and its realities.
