Description: "When Diane learns that Marble Cove's oldest church desperately needs costly repairs, she joins forces with Beverly to plan a fund-raiser to save the historic structure. But is Diane's enthusiasm for saving Old First just a tempting distraction from completing her second novel? Meanwhile, an invitation to dinner brings her to a decision she's been avoiding. Beverly's first real consulting job with a local businesswoman results in an unforgettable Valentine's Day, Margaret has an epiphany that spurs her to change her ways and her opinion about the Old First fund-raiser, and Shelley's husband Dan loses his job at the docks. Will the loss of income spell the end of Shelley's dreams for her baking business? The reverberation of a mysterious bell leads the friends to a secret that's been concealed in Old First for decades -- faded letters that point to hidden treasure somewhere in Marble Cove! Does it still exist after all these years? Could it hold the key to saving Old First?"--p. [4] of cover.
