DESCRIPTION:
But what author Jan Karon probably knows, and many readers are starting to figure out, is that the integrity and solid Christian values that these characters possess can be found in just about every neighborhood, and with inspiration like this book, anyone can build their own Mitford community. --Gail Hudson. At every turn, including when a brooding Irish cousin decides to move in, Father Tim must decide whether he will practice what he preaches. This time Father Tim, a lifelong bachelor, finds his heart distracted by his free-spirited neighbor Cynthia, but his stomach and the rectory cash box are distracted by Edith, a wealthy widow who is wooing the rector with love potion casseroles.

And the affirmation of what some of us already know: Life in a small town is rarely quiet and it is absolutely never boring.. Like At Home in Mitford, this book is filled with the miracles and mysteries of everyday life. As you can see, Mitford's rector and lifelong bachelor, Father Tim, is in need of divine intervention. In this beautifully crafted second novel in the Mitford series, Jan Karon delivers a love story that's both heartwarming and hilarious. And his red-haired Cousin Meg has moved into the rectory, uninvited. The second book in Jan Karon’s bestselling Mitford series confirms that a trip to Mitford is good for the soul His attractive neighbor is tugging at his heartstrings. Only time will tell if the village parson can practice what he preaches. A wealthy widow is pursuing him with hot casseroles
