Millwood Hollow series

Award-winning author Patricia Hickman crafts a critically acclaimed gem that warms the heart and tickles the funny bone. During the Great Depression Jeb Nubey is running from the law when he meets three abandoned children. After they pass a stormy night in a church, Jeb is mistaken for the new pastor-a widower with three kids. Looks like more trouble for Jeb. But the chance for a steady job and three squares a day is too good to turn down.
