Time is running out for the decision that will change her life. When tragedy strikes, will she and her father be pulled further apart or knit together? Could she stay at the castle even if she will never see her father again?
My Review
If you've known me long, you know Amanda is a dear friend of mine, whose novellas are rich in wholesome plots and family-friendly characters. Befriending the Beast is Amanda's retelling of Beauty and The Beast and her latest novella. While there are many things I loved about Belle's story, two elements especially encouraged my heart. First was the deep ribbon of trust in God throughout the story. Belle faced real rejection from her father, yet it didn't quench her trust in her Heavenly Father. Even though she clearly stumbled and wavered in her commitment to love the man who should have loved and protected her, the faith she had in Christ kept and strengthen her to the end. For me, this story was the personification of what so much the Lord has taught me about trusting Him.
Second was the steadfast love Belle had for her father. Was it painful, yes. Did it look hopeless, yes. Did she do it perfectly, no. But a charity that never fails was the story's hero. I truly can't recommend Befriending the Beast enough and would highly encourage parents seeking godly fiction to consider it for your family library!
