I have read the whole series so far. It is Christian fiction. I have enjoyed the series so far. I have one more book to read. If you wanted to read it, start with ANGELS WATCHING OVER ME, the first book in the series.Wow! I couldn't drop it for a second! I was at it till I knew what happened to Templeton Davis. So suspense filled! From one situation to another and the real truth! The colour of your skin isn't the colour of your heart. You can see the life of Templeton change. From an irresponsible thief to a responsible father, uncle and carer of the other children. That's what salvation can make of us and God does give us a second chance, sadly many fail at it and not many are able to make it through. I've
A tale of two orphaned teen aged girls keeping a plantation going after the Civil War seemed a bit simplistic and unrealistic. I like the premise stated in the title, which is emphasized throughout the book. The Reconstruction period was brutal, and I'm not sure this could have actually happened. However, it's a book of fiction, so perhaps I shouldn't be expecting history. It has a good moral message and is a easy read. However, I don't think I'll seek out any of the other books in the series.
I loved this book! Taking place right after the Civil War, it tells the story of four girls - 2 black and 2 white - who are living together and trying to save their house from overdue loans. This book has an amazing message - I mean, the TITLE! - and the plot and mystery-love-adventure-history parts of it are all amazing. This is an amazing book!
A good historical fiction book with Christian undertones. Some characters youll love and some that youll want to hate. . . the main moral of the story is its whats on the inside that really counts.
A relative loved this series and I wanted to give it a chance, but it is just awful. Or perhaps I should say, it is written on about a fifth grade level and absolutely every plot development is telegraphed from the first page. The use of heavy dialect was very distracting and actually quite offensive. But maybe I should say what I really think....
