Story Synopsis for Cloudy Jewel by Grace Livingston Hill:
“Julia Cloud, whose life has been given to caring for her
family, is left alone by the death of her invalid mother. Having
always lived a useful, dutiful life, she has been invited by her
married sister and brother-in-law to come to their home,
virtually to become a drudge. At the moment, however, when her
new slavery seems inevitable she is visited by her niece and
nephew, whose rich parents have died. They see the dilemma in
which Aunt Jane is placed and joyously make plans to thwart the
designs of the married sister. In consequence a new and beautiful
environment opens before 'Cloudy Jewel,' as they lovingly
nickname her, and Julia finds real joy in life. There is an
exquisite romance woven into the pages of this story.”
