The Angel Of Music

GlasgowGlasgow Grace by Marion Ueckermann is a delightfully romantic Christian novel. It is set in Scotland over the Christmas and New Year period and I loved it.

The novel has beautiful descriptions of the places where the action takes place. For me, memories of  Skye and Portree are evoked. It was fabulous to read of places where I had been. For anyone who lives or has holidayed in Scotland, Glasgow Grace will unleash your own memories.

Glasgow Grace has the theme of true love as described in 1 Corinthians: 13. True love includes not only a couple but God too. True love is kind and considerate. True love will last no matter what life throws at you.

Sarah gave up on Jesus after being hurt in the past. She believes God is punishing her and wants nothing more to do with Him. Her sister Hannah wisely told her “don’t block God out because of man’s mistakes.” Sarah cannot deal with the expectation and pressure to attend church at Christmas.

Niklas steps into his father’s role as Santa, and meets Sarah. In the hope of beating her writers block, Sarah interviews Santa, not realising that he is the owner of the log cabin where she is staying.
