Love And Grace

Her Kind-Hearted Billionaire by Juliette Duncan is a delightful contemporary Christian romance and the first in a new series. The story is charming and covered by the love of God.

The main themes are of mission and trafficking. The novel is mainly set in Australia but moves to Cambodia and Thailand. Here the effects of trafficking are keenly felt on young girls and boys. People, called by God, want to make a difference. The reader sees that both time and money is needed to help change traumatised lives.

The novel is also about dealing with the effects of loss. When we lose a loved one it may “seem that all of your dreams died.” We have to learn to live again and we have to learn not to feel guilty when we smile again. “You are allowed to be happy again.”

We need to discover where our heart lies because there we will find our treasure. “Surely there was more to life than just money, power and material possessions.” The richest people are not those with the most money but those whose hearts beat in tune with God. There is nothing wrong with having money if we are good stewards and invest wisely into God’s kingdom. However if we make money our god, we have got it wrong.

Juliette Duncan has created a wonderful set of characters. It was pure joy to watch a character give her heart to God.

This is going to be a fabulous series.

I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.
