Return to Huckleberry Hill
(The Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill #7)
by Jennifer Beckstrand

Book Description:
When it comes to matchmaking, Huckleberry Hill, Wisconsin’s unstoppable octogenarians Anna and Felty Helmuth never seem to run out of opportunities—or grandchildren...

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…

MY REVIEW:   Anna and Felty Helmuth have a mission in life.....get their grandchildren married off.....and they will stop at nothing to accomplish their mission.   These two elderly grandparents are just the cutest two people.  I would personally love to meet them.  I think I would want to take my own meal to share with Anna and Felty though.   I am sure they would appreciate the help with dinner and all our tastebuds would be happy.
       
          Readers will enjoy returning to Huckleberry Hill for yet another visit.  Meeting Fern and Reuben will prove to be quite a treat too.   Even if Reuben  is a challenge for Fern, it will be worth getting to know the young couple.
          I am rating this novel 5 stars and highly recommend it to readers.  
          I received a digital version of this book from netgalley and Zebra Publishing in exchange for my honest review.   I was not required to write a positive review.  All opinions expressed are my own.
