A Daily Rate by Grace Livingston Hill A sweet and wholesome romance Celia's eyes danced as she said demurely she was very glad. As she went back to the kitchen with the dishes, she could not help... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I think I've read all of the G H Hill books and this is my favorite. I like all the extra poetry that's part of the story. It may not be as polished as her later books but it's still my favorite!

i loved this book! it's about some women who keep a boarding house and are dealing with a lot of problems. they learn to rely on God to take care of them, one day at a time. it is really touching, exciting and it teaches one a lot about trusting God when things go wrong. i also loved the little poems at the end of every chapter! of course there is romance, too.....
Satisfying read!

This is the story of Celia Murray forced into the business world by the death of a relative. Although this a frequent theme of Ms Hill, one she was well acquainted with, I found this book appealing. Celia lived in a dismal boarding home with strangers, where she and the other inhabitants really were a victim of their circumstances. The meals were dreadful and unappealing. Even the landlady's inability to manage money and her own feelings of hopelessness were skillfully woven into the story. Celia receives a small inheritance, brings her Aunt and an old servant to live with her and they begin a modest makeover of the boarding house that touches and brightens the lives of all who live there. The romance is understated but satisfying. I confess a love for books or movies that show one person making the difference for even one. so this review is biased.
A "must read" for every Christian woman!
