Grace Livingston Hill (1865-1947) was an early 20th Century "Christian Romance" novelist. She was immensely popular in the time that she wrote, contributing hundreds of novels and short stories during her lifetime. Her characters were most often young female ingenues, frequently strong Christian women or those who become so within the confines of the story. Grace's messages are quite simplistic in nature: good versus evil. As Grace believed the Bible was very clear about what was good and what was evil in life, she reflected that cut-and-dried design in her own works. She touched on subjects such as infidelity, defiance, hard-heartedness towards God, and deception, to name just a few. Grace wrote about them all and could manage a happy, or at least satisfactory, ending to any situation. Jesus, the ever-present (though unseen) reoccurring character, manages to heal or mend any situation Grace imagined. It was no wonder that in her days she was known as the "Queen of Christian Romance. " Her works include: The Girl from Montana (1908), The Mystery of Mary (1911) and Lo, Michael! (1913).

Julia Cloud helped raise her four siblings due to their mother's long time illness and father's death. After faithfully nursing two ill brothers she then cared for her invalid mother for many years. When Julia's mother passes on, her only surviving sibling Ellen fully expects that her sister comes live with her family. But to earn her keep Julia must be their live-in housekeeper and babysitter for Ellen's four children. But Julia's niece arrives unexpectedly from California and offers Aunt Cloudy Jewel a surprise opportunity she never expected in her dreams.

The story of Julia Cloud, family drudge, and her rejuvenation, results in an exquisite romance and a cheerful story as heart-satisfying as a fresh-blown rose. Review Selfless, caring Julia Cloud finds herself "adopted" as a guardian to her headstrong niece and nephew. It seems like a perfect solution for three lonely hearts--the orphaned teens have a great companion to mother them, and their "Cloudy Jewel" finally gets the loving home she's longed for. But what happens when three independent minds disagree? One of GLH's best, I think! Beautifully written, it's the kind of book where you want to knock on the cottage door and spend an evening with these characters. There's just enough conflict and drama to make the story a page-turner (I've never seen so much gunplay in a Hill book!), but nothing to emotionally jar the feeling of home, and love, and friendship. Written in the 1920's, "Cloudy Jewel" gives us a glimpse into the details of another time, yet proves that the more things change, the more they stay the same. This book hit me with the vital importance of Sabbath rest--whether it's on Sunday, or another day of the week. I need a full day's rest to relax and renew; and I need time every day to reconnect with God and my own soul. After reading "Cloudy Jewel," I started taking two hours at night to have a glass of wine, read a book...and rest. It's helped. “Mousewords”
