Almost friends : a Harmony novel / Philip Gulley. 1st ed. San Francisco : HarperSanFrancisco, 2006. 216 p. : ill. ; 22 cm. Harmony Series ; 7 It's summer in Harmony, but not everything is as sunny as the weather. The good citizens of Harmony are back and stirring up trouble as usual, sometimes with disastrous results. Pastor Sam Gardner must take a leave of absence from his post at Harmony Friends Meeting to take care of his ailing father. But when spunky pastor Krista Riley comes to fill his position, the quirky Quakers seem to fall in love with her, and it begins to look like Sam's sabbatical may be permanent. Krista's resilience is put to the test when Dale Hinshaw and Fern Hampton begin to question whether a woman (especially one rumored to be gay) can faithfully lead their flock, and it looks like the resulting tiff might just be the undoing of Harmony Friends Meeting.--From publisher description. 20170101.
