This was a good story. It didn't have much about characters from the other books in the series though. Just enough to remind you of them. Nice easy read.
This was my 1st Susan Wiggs book, and it made me come back for more of her work! I love baseball stories, and this one was really cute!

This was the first book i have read of the series and once i got to know each character and the plot started to really develop and come together the book started moving at lightning speed and i ended up really liking it & finding it touching... Good romance as well as a touching account of the development and healing of the estranged relationship between a father and his young son (who had never met but do to a trajic event the boy is separated from his mother and sent to go live with his father) Plus the ending was not what i expected and it was better than i expected which is always nice... I would reccomend it... Im definitly going to go back and read the 1st 4 books in the series
"Fireside" is an entertaining read and a wonderful study of human nature.

From the start of this book, it was good reading. Love and what a father must do
Susan Wiggs sets this story in the small town of Avalon. Once again she included some information about characters featured in previous books, although not so much detail that it requires the reader to read her books in sequence. I recommend this book as an enjoyable read and can't wait to read the next book in the series.

I loved this book! Susan Wiggs does such a good job; bringing joy and tears in equal measure. This one keeps you guessing right to the end. I'm really enjoying the town of Avalon, through the several books set in that area. I totally recommend this one!
