In Prairie Center, Kansas, all of Prairie County gathers After the Harvest for its first organized fair, and Judith Timmons hopes it's the last event she has to attend before moving back East. But a certain Rylan Gaines has taken a fancy to the berry tea she sells at the fair. What might that mean to Judith's plans? As Anita Gaines prepares entries for the 1905 fair, she also faces A Test of Faith. Will she find the love of her life only to lose him in the upheaval of adding a new stepmother and stepsister to her family? Garrison Gaines enters Prairie County society as a judge at the 1946 fair cook-off. Will he find a Goodie Goodie there to benefit his new catering business - and his life? At the fair's "beautiful baby" contest rehearsals, old high school friends Zachary Gaines and Beth Whitrock renew acquaintances. Can a committed career woman and a man who has vowed never to marry again have A Change of Heart? Like the longstanding Prairie County Fair love has a way of enduring - not only over the years, but across the generations

I loved all four novellas. All the authors are excellent. I enjoyed that the county fair stories started in 1857 and each story was a different time period using some of the same characters in each story. The last story in the collection is current time. Cleverly done especially since all 4 novellas were written by 4 different authors.

1850's Kansas is the perfect place to raise a family? If you forget the whole Bloody Kansas thing.
In the 1905 story, there's a Laura, Marilla, almost an Anne, and others that I'm forgetting that would make me like a book, but no one acts in a believable manner.
Not really much to say about the post WWII book, but the last one?
The man is upset because his single returned to town high school friend has a job. Really?? How does he expect her to eat or have a place to sleep. He's just over the top in his chauvinism.
