A Papa’s girl from the start, Jewel Jones remembers all the things he told her. Wealthy, but far from being a snob, she finds Boaz Branson both irritating and intriguing. How can she know if the handsome confidence man truly turns from his wicked ways, or if his interest only in her gold? Papa said let God’s peace lead her.

My Thoughts on Jewel’s Gold:

I loved this book!  But then again, I’ve loved every book I’ve read by Caryl McAdoo.  Her works are fun and fast-paced.  They keep you hooked and draw you in.  Her characters snag you and become your best friends.  You just can’t stop reading!

The biblical references by giving characters Bible names and possibly characteristics of those people of the names is fun.  I have to admit I was a bit shocked by the blow of who Jewel was at the end too.  Interesting to have her family tree re-written a bit.

Jewel is definitely a fun and feisty character in her own right.  She knows what she wants and she’s not afraid to go-to for the getting of it.  Her father was the main love of her life until he died.  She loved him to distraction and all she does now is shadowed by what he would do or how he might have gone on.  To this bit, she loves Alaska and their gold claim.  The time she spent there with him was some of the best memories she has.

The one person in this book who has their head on straight when it comes to money and business is Jewel.  She’s quite the businesswoman.  Very astute and quite the bridge player as well.

Maybe I should poke in now with the fact that I’ve never played bridge or any other card game besides solitaire in my life.  So that was probably the hardest bit of the book to get into and understand.  The playing of cards.  I have no idea what the references mean.  Does not affect the enjoyment of the book.  

Boaz is a fun character to watch grow and develop.  He too learns all about his family and what went on in the years gone by.  Already he knew about the cheating and cons that have gone on.  He’s participated in plenty as well.  Can he finally get free of that life?  Would God have anything to do with a man like him?  Also, would Jewel?

Loved the book, highly recommend this one and any book by Caryl McAdoo you can get your hands on.  You’ll love her writing style and have books to last you a while.

About the Author of Jewel’s Gold

Award-winning, hybrid author Caryl McAdoo prays her story gives God glory! That is why she writes, why she breathes.

Her forty-fourth novel has just launched, joining her best-selling title list!

Besides writing, she loves singing the new songs the Lord gives her. (Listen to a few at YouTube.) Ron, her husband of 50+ years shares four children and eighteen grandsugars—life’s best blessings, Caryl says.

The McAdoos live in the woods south of Clarksville, the seat of Red River County in far Northeast Texas, waiting expectantly for God to open the next door.

More from Caryl

Jewel’s Gold, my July release and book four in the Gold Diggers Collection, begins in San Francisco in 1895 and moves quickly north to Alaska on Troublesome Creek where Jewel’s papa has a gold mine. My husband Ron was on Troublesome Creek in 1993 seeking the Lord. While there, he also did a little prospecting.

To mention gold is to speak of wealth as gold is the most sought-after metal in the world. It’s found on every continent, and I’ve discovered it can be located our bodies as well! Mostly in our blood! Small traces have also been extracted from eucalyptus leaves, a favorite snack of Koala bears!

Jewel Jones is the daughter of Joshua Jones, son of Moses and Lanell introduced in SINS OF THE MOTHERS, book three in the Texas Romance Family Saga. Truth be known, little Joshua was in fact a Wheeler, not as Jones, though Moses reared him as his own son.

His real father was Caleb who married Mary Rachael Buckmeyer and talked her into running off to California. So, this book may also be classified as a ‘Companion Book’ to that highly acclaimed historical romance series.

Ron has always wanted to go back and show me Alaska, and one day we most likely will go north . . . but only in the summer! Who doesn’t love leaving Texas for northern, cooler temperatures in the summer?
This story has a little mystery along with the romance and history. When we drove the Oregon/California Trail last December, we visited the site of Sutter’s Mill where the gold rush of 1849 was born. That last place we went before turning south and east back to Texas was an unexpected stop.

On the American River, the park and museum offered an amazing place to visit, and knowing this book was on the schedule made it all the more interesting! I also believe that place will add to the genuine feel of Jewel’s Gold.
