With the twenty-year reunion at Mossy Creek, Georgia coming soon, Creekites wonder who burned down the town's high school back then that has forced locals to attend nearby rival Bigelow High School? Apparently the arsonist is taunting the Creekites by having sent to the town the ten cent fortune telling machine used during that homecoming day when the fire changed so many lives.

Though not even born yet, wallflower Josie McClure knows the impact of the fire because her mother was the homecoming queen who never celebrated her victory and forced her to compete for the Bigelow High School Homecoming Day Queen, which she humiliatingly lost. Rainey Ann Cecil thinks back to that fatal day in 1981 when she was twelve and with Robert Walker and Hank Blackshear believed they caused the fire. Amos Royden is now the sheriff and would like to solve the case that his now deceased father always felt blemished his law enforcement record. Other are impacted by either the fire or the upcoming reunion. Will the reunion complete the destruction of the Creekites or refurbish the civil pride of being a Creekite?

Written as a series of vignettes tied together through the reunion, the story line is humorous and sad focusing on how a pivotal event can change lives forever. Though an ensemble, the characters come across as genuine leaving readers to understand their pain, loneliness, and their need to belong. Fans will enjoy tremendously REUNION AT MOSSY CREEK and want to read the previous slice of small town southern living, MOSSY CREEK. Both novels colorfully and cleverly illustrate small town southern living.

I am getting a late start on reading the Mossy Creek series, but better late than never! I am devouring them as fast as I can to catch up, yet, at the same time, I don't want to finish them too quickly and have to leave the quirky citizens of Mossy Creek behind. A sign of a good read for me is when I miss the characters when I close the book....and this is how I felt when I closed the pages of the last Mossy Creek book I had - this one! Now I've ordered all of them and will gulp them down like good old southern sweet tea. By time I finish, the new one ought to be out....maybe I better read reallllll slow so BB has time to publish a couple more!

These books that center around this little quaint town are a fun read - gentle and quirky. You know just what you are getting and sometimes that's exactly what I want....you also know there will be happy endings, and I'm a sucker for happy endings!

A fine set of interconnecting 'stories' set in a fine little southern town. I'm hooked!

This is the second in a series of Mossy Creek books. So glad I discovered them. Love the small town and the enjoyable characters. I've already purchased the 3rd book in the series, and expect I will eventually get all of them. Some chapters are more serious, and some have you laughing out loud. If you like books set in the south, you will enjoy this.

I love this series. It is worth the price by a longshot. If you like humorous short stories with a little mystery, the this book is for you.

This is the sequel to "Mossy Creek." It is just as heartwarming and charming as the first book. Most of the characters found in "Mossy Creek" are in this book. The most enthralling thing, though, is waiting to see if the person who burned down the Mossy Creek High School will be revealed. There are a lot of twists and turns leading up to "the final reveal," as well as a lot of wonderful, funny and/or sad stories. The ending is both exciting and disappointing, but I can't tell you why, lest I reveal too much!

If you enjoyed Mossy Creek this is an outstanding follow up! While I can't say it was as good as the first one. I can say it was still a pleasant and enjoyable read. Not all books have to be thought provoking some books are just great because they leave you with a good feeling when you're done. This series still makes me wish this was where I'd grown up!

I have waited for the new mossy creek book very much, but I was a bit dissappointed. It was great meeting the old wonderfully exentric characters of the first book, but the reunion was laced with pain and hurt. The book concentraed around the question who burned Mossy Creek's old high school 20 years ago? The questions unearthed secrets from the town's past. Some of the stories were really great like the love story between shy Josie M. and bigfoot, but while the first book was all touching and fanny and a just a little bit sad, the second one had too much hurt people in it. But still I want to hear about the residence of mossy creek so I will buy the next book, I just hope it will be uplifting as the first.

Reunion at Mossy Creek

The book concentrated around the question that burned Mossy Creek's old high school 20 years ago? And as they are planning how they are going to have a festival on Labor Day a large box is delivered to the group. What could this be? Can it be something that will hurt them? But they find out what it is and then decide what to do with it. The question unearthed secrets from the town's past.
Some of the stories were really great like the love story between wallflowers Josie McClure. And "bigfoot", that she found on the mountain that she called her own. She found out who Bigfoot is and is not afraid of him. What could this be? While the first book was all touching and funny and a just a little bit sad, the second one had a lot of hurt people in it

Being from a small town in Georgia myself, I completely bonded with the characters in both Mossy Creek books. These authors have done a wonderful job continuing these delightful stories and I look forward to reading more.
