Jewelry Stories from Maire
Thank you so much for joining me for the latest edition of Jewelry Stories! I hope you are enjoying these fun posts each week as we peek a little further into the pages of my latest reads to find some jewelry treasures. I read Maire a few months back, and while it started off as a slow read, it didn’t take long before I was hooked into this story! It’s an older novel in the Christian historical fiction genre by an established author, Linda Windsor. When I read it, I wasn’t capturing a lot of quotes to share what specifically inspired me as I am now. I was mostly looking for…

Jewelry Stories from The Reluctant Bridegroom
Thank you so much for joining me for the latest edition of Jewelry Stories! I hope you are enjoying as we peek a little further into the pages of my latest reads to find some jewelry treasures. For this post, I’m featuring a book I found by happenstance at my local library – The Reluctant Bridegroom by Shannon Farrington. I’ve always enjoyed the books that were a part of the Love Inspired Historical line, and sadly, they have discontinued it. There’s still plenty of them out there that I haven’t read – oh, to have more hours in the day (I know you know how I feel). 🙂 I have…

Jewelry Stories from the Canadian West Series
I simply adore Janette Oke’s books! They bring back such fond memories of my teenage years as I used to pore over my library’s shelves for anything new from her that I had not yet read. I couldn’t believe that this series was never there! (You can feel free to join me in the shock.) After all, the original series was written in the 80s, and they had everything else written around that same time. But I digress… This series has enjoyed a resurgence lately thanks to the Hallmark TV series When Calls the Heart. I admit that I am a diehard fan, and while the show is very different…
