Publisher's Synopsis
Sleepy little Sweetland is getting ready for Easter, and the excitement of the preparations and distractions are enough to provide a little craziness for your humdrum days. Will and Carlie split up within minutes of getting engaged. Celia deals with her large family scattered hither and yon, a sudden critical illness, and concern for a foster child with PTSD. Rozene wonders what ever happened to all the spare time she used to have before marrying Mike and adopting four teenagers. Nathan grumbles over losing his inheritance, leaving college to take on a menial job as an orderly at the hospital, and his family-or lack thereof. And Mary Ellen worries that her five active children will prove too much for the elderly and aristocratic Virginia Dansforth Livingston Thompson, especially when an enemy of Virginia causes the angst to rise. We dedicate this collection of Sweetland shorts to our writing sister and friend, Karen Kosman, who had a story planned and underway for this series when she fell ill. We want her to know how much we missed her joining in on our chats about the series, writing her imaginative stories, and spreading her nature on all of us. We send our get well wishes on her behalf heavenward to our dear Lord and Savior, and we praise God she's on the mend."
