Summary

Acclaimed, best-selling author Lori Wick’s The Proposal is a moving tale of Christ’s love at work in early 19th-century London. William Jennings is not married and likes it that way. But when a relative passes away, he is suddenly guardian of three young children. This unexpected development provides him a male heir without the bother of a wife, yet the children quickly become more than he can handle. Finding help from a truly remarkable woman, he learns to see the world in a completely different light.

A sweet, romantic, Christian story

A sweet, romantic, Christian story. I enjoyed the whole story a fair bit though the narration could have been a little better and some of the Christian beliefs I found a little Victorian/inaccurate/on the strict side. Overall a pleasant story.

Good Storyline with Strong Christian Emphasis

This is an enjoyable read. It is hard to find good, Christian fiction and I am happy to have discovered this author. If I had a criticism it would be that some of the words and phrases don't use English upper class phraseology. I think the term 'drawing-room' would be more appropriate than 'salon' and it would be most unlikely for a child to use 'Mum' to address their mother. Far more likely would be the form 'Mother'.
