Faith, Friendship,

The prologue of this book tugged at my heartstrings! Eight-year-old Julia Shultz loses her parents and begins an existence filled with made-up stories because she doesn't want to forever bear the label of orphan. Eighteen years later, hoping to find a fresh start, she becomes a Harvey Girl at the famous El Tovar Hotel, but she still finds herself telling stories to hide her past. Just when do the stories made up by children turn into lies told by adults? Author Kimberley Woodhouse paints a poignant picture of that lonely little girl who is now a lonely adult. Julia's luck seems to change when she begins a search for long-lost treasure with Christopher Miller and, for the first time, experiences the joy of friendship. Julia's life seems on the upswing until her past comes to light. Will this man who values honesty and truth continue to be her friend? A Gem of Truth has likable characters involved with adventure, danger, and mystery in the legendary setting of the Grand Canyon. It also has a sweet romance and a powerful faith message that kept me totally engaged. I recommend this book to all who enjoy historical Christian romance. I received a complimentary copy from the author but there was no obligation for a positive review.

Exemplary

A powerful story with lessons to be learned. Can past lies come back to haunt you? Can turning over a new leaf be accepted and forgiveness found? Can surrendering to God and His plan for our life make a heart change? I guess you will have to read to find out. Ms Woodhouse brings to life history of a Harvey Girl and the beauty of the El Tovar Hotel located at the Grand Canyon. It's easy to visualize the scenery through the eyes of the characters. I found myself immersed in the master jeweler of Chris and how he taught the Hopi parts of his trade. An example of how many hands makes quick work. It also represented to me how if we give control over to our Master he makes our burden lighter. A story that worms it's way into your heart and leaves you wanting more as it contains so many elements. I look forward to the next book in this series. Add to your must read list. I received a complimentary copy from the author/publisher. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.

Another Wonderful Read

There's something simple and warm about Kimberley Woodhouse's novels. She truly makes you feel like you've stepped back into another era, living life alongside a delightful set of characters in a place that stirs the imagination and makes you want to book a trip there. I love how these books are so openly Christian. Not many authors nowadays will brave this level of sharing truth and scripture through characters who so obviously love the Lord. The gentle pace made the book an easy read, while the plot, twists, and turns, made it hard to put down. I can't wait for book 3 - I've so been looking forward to Ruth's story!
