Huckleberry Hill

Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill, Book 1

By: Jennifer Beckstrand

Narrated by: C. S. E Cooney

With their 13 children grown, Anna and Felty Helmuth are ready for their next adventure. That means trying their hands at matchmaking - because what could be more fun than igniting love when it's right and undoing mismatches when they're wrong? Now Huckleberry Hill just might turn out to be the most romantic spot in Wisconsin.

Lia Shetler is resigned to being a spinster. She's too tall and sturdy to ever be marriageable - so says her overbearing dad. Instead she's helping her pretty, spoiled sister, Rachel, secure the perfect husband - the Helmuths' grandson, Moses Zimmerman. But the more Lia sees of his gently teasing ways and quiet understanding, the more she wishes that Moses could be hers alone.

Moses knew that his grandparents couldn't resist trying to find him a wife. But he never expected that it would be the graceful, sensible Lia - a woman who is tall enough to look him in the eye and honest enough to make him question a promise holding him to his past. Now Moses and Lia will need the kind of miracles that only faith and courage can bring to finally reach for a lifetime of happiness.

Very Entertaining

"Huckleberry Hill" is a delightful, clean story that will make you laugh and cry all at once. The characters are so real that I felt like I knew them. This is a story about how family, friends, and community join together when situations occur and how looking to GOD brings joyful endings. It is well written and narrated. looking forward to the next book in this series.
