The Treasure of Zanzibar by Catherine Palmer

Why would he leave his house to her? It didn’t make sense. Yes, she had been his student, but… Jessica Thornton can’t figure out why her art teacher would leave his home in Zanzibar to her, but she does know that she wants a new start for her son, Splinter, and herself. The two make the move to Zanzibar and meet up with Mama Hannah and with someone else too. I really enjoyed this story of change and redemption against the odds. God works things out in amazing ways that are hard for us (as humans) to see sometimes. Join Jessica as she tries to see and understand what it is God wants from her and for her. Catherine Palmer has a winning series in her Treasure books. The Treasure of Zanzibar is the second book in this series. If you’re ready for a trip to a place filled with mystery and a little intrigue, find a copy of The Treasure of Zanzibar and turn the fan on (it might get a little warm). It’s a trip worth taking!  Note: This book is now titled - A Whisper of Danger.

Love’s Proof by Catherine Palmer

The story line of this book wasn’t exactly what I expected, but I still found the story of Jane Fellowes very enjoyable. She is a woman who fights for her family and for what she believes in. She is not content to stay in the role her society has told her is appropriate for a woman. She is smart, intelligent, and caring. You will find her story of interest if you enjoy science and if you don’t. Learn something about God’s creation (those that are beautiful and those that aren’t). Read Love’s Proof to find out just what “the proof” is.
