Return to Huckleberry Hill

Summary

Reuben Helmuth is plenty bitter. John King, his best friend - or so he thought - is engaged to the girl Reuben loved. Humiliated, Reuben flees from Ohio to his grandparents' home on Huckleberry Hill, where he knows he'll find comfort. He's enjoying wallowing in his misery - until John's sister, Fern, shows up. She won't stop pestering Reuben about forgiveness - or trying to help him find love again. Yet Fern's efforts only reawaken Reuben's long-buried feelings - for her.... With her brother too ashamed to face Reuben, it's fallen to Fern to help mend fences. But as she and the Helmuths do all they can - even organizing a knitting club event filled with eligible girls - it may take one more challenge to inspire Reuben to forget his heartache, recognize his own blunders, and embrace the true love that's right in front of him....
