This story shows us a good example of this verse, in Romans: 8: "[28] And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
The main character, Rose Finlay, suffers an almost insurmountably crushing hit to her marriage, and through that, the Lord gives her the need to help other young women sidestep the trap which she
fell into. The other significant characters in this story are Sophie, an impetuous and spoiled debutante, who finally shows some maturity, thanks to Rose's guidance, and and
John Millburn, who has taken on the responsibility of his widowed sister's financial and family situation.
Jennifer Delamere is gifted by God with her skill of writing engaging stories, and characters who are relatable. The romance in Holding the Line is demure, and prudent, you know
it's happening, but she doesn't repeatedly remind you of it with ridiculous phrases that would be more appropriate in a teen novel. So many authors today belabor the obvious,
but Mrs. Delarmere is more refined in her approach to Christian romance. I enjoyed getting a look at high society, but enjoyed even more the way she slyly pointed out the ludicriousness of
many of the attitudes and goals of the wealthy, high society set. Keep up the excellent work, Jennifer.
Holding the Line kept my interest, and I looked forward to taking time to read the next chapter, and the next. I'm hoping to read more of her books, her writing style
is quite good, and I hope she publishes more high-quality Christian fiction books such as this one. Such a good book, and I highly recommend it.
I was given a copy of this book free of charge by Bethany House, in exchange for an honest review.
