Summer in Mossy Creek
by Anne Bishop, Sandra Chastain, Deborah Smith, Debra Dixon, Martha Shields

It's a typical summer in the good-hearted mountain town of Mossy Creek, Georgia, where love, laughter and friendship make nostalgia a way of life. Creekites are always ready for a sultry romance, a funny feud or a sincere celebration, and this summer is no different.

Get ready for a comical battle over pickled beets and a spy mission to recover hijacked chow-chow peppers. Meet an unforgettable parakeet named Tweedle Dee and a lovable dog named Dog. Watch Amos and Ida sidestep the usual rumors and follow Katie Bell's usual snooping. In the meantime, old-timer Opal Suggs and her long-dead sisters share a lesson on living, and apple farmer Hope Bailey faces poignant choices when an old flame returns to claim her.

Your favorite authors are back along with some wonderful new storytellers—plus more recipes from Creekite chef Bubba Rice. Pull up a wicker rocker, sip some peach- flavored iced tea, and listen as the townsfolk of Mossy Creek share their lives with you once again.
