Before he even says hello, he asks Betsy to marry him. They've been separated for a year, and they're determined never to be apart again.<p>But as Betsy discovers, marriage isn't all candlelight, kisses, and roses. There's cooking, ironing, and budgeting as well--not to mention forging her career as a writer! For Betsy, the writing part comes naturally, but cooking is another matter. It's even harder than algebra--and much messier.<p>Luckily Betsy Ray--make that Betsy Willard--has always thrived on challenge. Her name may have changed, but her life remains as full of love and laughter as it's been since she was a little girl living on Hill Street in the first of the classic BETSY-TACY books.Betsy returns from Europe to marry Joe Willard—and soon learns that beloved friend Tacy is expecting a baby! It's wartime in America, but Betsy, Joe, and their wonderful circle of friends brave their hardships together.<br> <P>109123131996Betsy's Wedding (Betsy-Tacy)total:510|5:287|4:139|3:70|2:11|1:3|51022266022502falsefalseMon Jul 16 19:47:31 -0700 2007Sun Aug 26 20:50:14 -0700 200701falsefalseWed Aug 22 12:41:45 -0700 2007Thu Aug 23 12:03:52 -0700 200750falsefalseMon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 1996Mon Oct 22 13:15:58 -0700 2007Mon Oct 22 13:23:17 -0700 2007
