Resumen del Editor

"Readers who love a happy ending will not be disappointed." (Author Stacie Eirich)

Josie is content as a maid in a rich cottager's mansion along the Cliff Walk of beautiful Newport, Rhode Island, but the arrival of her employer's handsome, pensive son tempts her into a relationship that while chaste, is forbidden between their social classes in the Gilded Age of 1893.

After travels abroad have led Arthur in search of a deeper connection with his Lord, he returns home to find love with his mother's maid, a Christian girl with a heart full of love and charity. Can they overcome their families' refusal to accept their attachment, or is their relationship doomed from their very first meeting on the romantic Cliff Walk?

Great story

I really enjoyed this story. Well developed characters and I loved the banter between Authur and Josie.

LOVE CHRISTIAN VALUES IS WHAT HE WANTS

A chance meeting watching the sunrise come up, a sight Josie never tires of seeing before working as a maid in the Davenport House. Arthur happens to see her, and how her face showed the enjoyment of what she is watching. Soon she realized who he was, and her life was one of being invisible. Love and Christian values, is what he wants to share, can he change her mind. For him, he is expected to carry on the family business, having no income of his own. This is the early 1900 some people might not accept her as part of the Davenports if they were to wed.
The narration by Dani Diangelo. brought this story to life. Can be read as a stand alone.

Good Christian Romance

I listened to the audiobook and the narrator was pleasant. The story was great with a girl that was a maid in a rich family’s home. The son of the family falls for the maid. The very station of his life is threatened and his parents are not happy. Will the parents accept him as he is or will they cut him from their will?
Arthur & Josie finds out they enjoy the same things and that is helping people. I enjoyed reading about their journey to each other and them finding their life’s passion.
This is a Christian Romance so it is a clean book. I’m thankful for authors that keeps it clean for readers like me.
I received this audiobook by the author but was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

It's like a classic Hallmark movie for your ears

*I was provided a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review*
Throne of Grace by Cecily Wolfe is a Historical Fiction Christian Romance set in 1893; Newport, Rhode Island. The dashingly rich and handsome Arthur Davenport has a mission in heart to help the impoverished. When he meets a girl walking along the beautiful cliff face who speaks to his soul he breaks the class structures and seeks her company and support. Josie's and Arthur's passion for God leads them to stand against society's harassments and create a friendship that leads slowly but deeply into a love.
The audiobook plays out like one of the original Hallmark movies. Just cliche enough that you get swept up in the romance of it all but with characters whose depth goes beyond who they like. Josie's choices are light hearted 'oh who shall I love' ditsy choices but serious life altering choices that affect not only herself but the livelihood of her mother. Arthur thinks beyond his mission and his lady to gain the love and support of his family.

A Sweet One

I just loved this one. Full of romance, a great plot, and wonderfully worked out characters. I enjoyed listening to it all play out. Looking forward to hearing more from this book series.

Very easy listen and enjoyable!

I loved listening to their relationship blossom as it did. Arthur and Josie may be from different social societies but it did not matter when love called to you. They both dealt with many challenges along the way but it was worth it in the end. Im happy this story wasn’t like many quick romances filled with giggles and naivety. It was mature enough with their business ventures and talks of society. This was an emotional storyline and the narrator was amazing portraying all of characters. I loved listening to Rosie’s mother, Lucy, and Dr. Colt share a few moments together. The build in this story was very full. Im so happy many scenes passed without Arthur’s mother and her evil gossiping lies. But when those lies hit it caused Lucy to take the hit instead of Rosie and that was terrible. Overall the story was enjoyable and I recommend it.

A good story

I enjoyed this story book. The narrator did a great job with the story. She brought the story to life for me. Josie Warren and Arthur Davenport meet each other while walking on the Cliff Walk. When they meet again its in his home. Josie is one of the maids. He breaks the class stucture and seek her help and support. He talks to Josie about opening a homeless shelter.

The story was very heartwarming and a wholesome. The author did a great job writing this lovely story.

I received a complimentary copy to listen to from the author. This is my honest unbiased opinion.

Nice, but a little slow

A good story with likeable characters and you enjoyed their interaction. The narration was a little bit on the slow side, but you still enjoyed the story. So When you get a chance pick up a copy and enjoy. “I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.”
