Gwen's life has been a rollercoaster since she discovered she was the Ruby, the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of Twelve. In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she's been trying to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean. At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything. Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he's very warm indeed; the next he's freezing cold. Gwen's not sure what's going on there, but she's pretty much destined to find out.
'Surely you can sit on a seat for a few minutes without getting into conversation with a perfectly strange young man!' Julia smiled. 'It isn't as easy as you seem to think.' While waiting in Kensington Gardens for her stuffy fiancé, Julia Harburn, at a loose end following the remarriage of her father, encounters Stephen Brett, a young mining engineer just back from Africa on exciting business involving an abandoned mine and a perfect blue sapphire. It's a brief meeting, soon forgotten in her fiancé's irritation and her own relocation to a boarding house run by the theatrical (and lovable) Miss Martineau, who also finds her congenial work in a hat shop. But Julia has little time to settle in before a letter arrives from a hitherto unknown uncle in Scotland, inviting her to visit as his health is failing and he hopes to heal the rift between himself and Julia's father. She knows her father, traveling in Europe with his new wife, would disapprove, but she sets off for Scotland anyway. Her decision, naturally, reaps all sorts of complications, and Stephen reappears to dramatic effect. The Blue Sapphire, first published in 1963, is justifiably a favorite of D.E. Stevenson fans. A spirited heroine, an array of delightful characters both irritating and adorable, romance and comedy in equal parts, and the wanderlust-inducing beauty of Scotland-all mixed here in one of Stevenson's most satisfying and entertaining confections. This new edition includes an autobiographical sketch by the author. "Miss Stevenson has her own individual and charming way of seeing things." Western Mail
Few would doubt that this is a time of transition in our understanding of human sexuality. The confusion about sexual morals and mores is the more obvious evidence of this. But there is something else. For too long the bulk of Christian reflection about sexuality has asked an essentially one-directional question: what does Christian faith have to say about our lives as sexual beings?
