Bright Arrows

Grace Livingston Hill never disappoints and Bright Arrows is no exception. The story of Eden and what happens to her after her father dies is typical of Grace Livingston Hill. Hill's stories are designed to point the way to a loving Heavenly Father and each one does so in a gently and loving way.

The relatives and so-called friends start pouring into young Eden Thurston's life after her rich banker father dies. Among these is a cousin and his mother, an old schoolmate who just returned from the war, plenty of girlfriends, neighbors, even a brother of her old college roommate, a banker, and a young lawyer. Some came in friendship, some came with an eye on her newly inherited money, while others are professing love and marriage, so it is up to Eden to decide with the help of her Guide and her dearly beloved family servants, just who is on the up and up. While settling her father's estate, Eden has many ups and downs. They range from letters written by her deceased mother that her father left her, precious jewels, break-ins and jail escapes, and the near loss of a beloved friend, and in the end, true love. I would recommend this book to any Grace Livingston Hill fan or anyone else who enjoys a book of faith that also contains romance, a little danger and drama.

This is another of Grace Livingston Hill's classics. I loved this book. Although it has the same basic plot of all her books (i.e. boy meets girl, boy and girl discover the goodness of God, boy and girl fall in love) it has a unique way of presenting the situation. In some ways it is similar to Amerelle. This book is very good and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a good book to read.
