Creator of the best-selling Mitford series Jan Karon answers her listeners' questions with more of the romance between Father Tim and Cynthia. In this heart-warming tale, excitement sweeps the town after Mitford's beloved Episcopal priest announces plans to end his long-time bachelorhood.

Afraid to step forward, but terrified of wasting another moment, he pours out his feelings. As the parishoners and townsfolk learn of the impending wedding, they wonder—who will bake the cake; who will arrange the flowers? But even while they joyously make plans, they worry: will marriage change Father Tim?
