The honeymoon is over, and newlyweds Tim and Rose Ludlow settle into the fun, yet haphazard, process of learning to live as husband and wife. Their friend Abe Yousef still aches for his estranged family even as he looks forward with joy to his own upcoming nuptials, and Derek Warner must adjust to his role as "the last living bachelor." Life goes on. But the arrival of an embezzler's gorgeous wife and timid aunt stirs the peaceful waters of Tinkers Well. Into the building maelstrom steps a retired Jewish couple who longs for friendships amid the inhabitants of their new community, and things begin to happen. Not the least of these is the project nearest to the heart of a reformed New York land developer, though he is still doubtful of its success. Add a life-and-death caper for Granny Gert and Aletha, and it's time, once more, for readers to fasten their seat belts and enjoy the ride!

She delves into the fascinating ties between Christian practices and Jewish traditions while introducing new characters as appealing as they are imperfect. This third installment of the Intersections series will leave readers eager for more.
