This book tells you all about the characters in the last book "Welcome to Harmony" and you get to know some new characters. The main two characters in this book is Liz and Gabe. Liz is the flighty but good nature Lawyer and youngest sister of volunteer fire chief Hank Matheson. Gabe is a man that does not want to be noticed by anyone, thinking that people from his past are after him. It takes Liz to keep Gabe out of trouble with the town Sheriff. This book is great and Julia Gibson again does a great job in the narration.

This story is said to be about Rose and Duncan, but it is more like four stories in one. Each story crossing over the other; Victoria and Killian, Abe and the school marm's, and Stitch and Hallie's. Jodi Thomas does a great job to spend all these characters in to one store. Linda Stephens does a great job with the narration.

Teagen McMurray never wants to level Whispering Mountain and didn't much like people in general. All he ever wanted to do is take care of his ranch. But when he gets a letter from his only friend Eli asking him to take care of his wife and children, Teagen had no choice but to do what Eli asked.

This is one of Jodi Thomas' best books. All of the Whispering Mountain novels are great, but this one is one of my favorites. Jessie and the girls bring Teagen McMurray back to life. Linda Stephens does a wonderful job with the narration. If you like the Whispering Mountain series you'll love this one. If you are new to this series you'll find out just want makes Whispering Mountain great.
