Lastly, Bob takes over the kitchen, is this good or bad? Read the book to find out what happens. Can't wait to read the next book!

I have loved reading this series and I have been blessed that my library has been either getting the books through inter-library loan or purchasing the ones they do not have or can borrow. This book in the series was a blessing to read, when I have had to learn that family is not the family your are "born" into per say, but those who you make family along life's journey by being there for each other. I laughed & cried right alongside those of Bedford, Nebraska.

Faith-based nice little beach read. Covers the pain of living we all face however not cloyingly sweet -The usual happy ending, of course.

Quick and easy read, like all in this series. Love the characters...very real and down to earth. If you want suspense and edge-of-your-seat action, this isn't for you. On the other hand, if you enjoy endearing characters and real-life situations dealt with in a christian manner, then take a seat and enjoy!
