Publisher's Note
Over the years sixty members of the Dark family and sixty Penhallows have married one another--but not without their share of fighting and feuding. Now Aunt Becky, the eccentric old matriarch of the clan, has bequeathed her prized possession: a legendary heirloom jug. But the name of the jugs new owner will not be revealed for one year. In the next twelve months beautiful Gay Penhallows handsome fiance Noel Gibson leaves her for sly and seductive Nan Penhallow; reckless Peter Penhallow and lovely Donna Dark, who have hated each other since childhood, are inexplicably brought together by the jug; Hugh and Joscelyn Dark, separated on their wedding night ten years ago for reasons never revealed, find a second chance--all watched over by the mysterious Moon Man, who has the gift of second sight. Then comes the night when Aunt Becky's wishes will be revealed...and the family is in for the biggest surprise of all.

    I bought this book because I love L.M. Montgomery's other books. I have read and re-read the Anne series. In each book or collection of her short stories you are both entertained and given insight into the human psyche.

    In this book a family tradition of marriage between the Darks and Penhallows is set on it's ears. When Aunt Beck is on her "death bed" she reveals in revealing family secrets and each person's biggest "shame". There is a huge fight over who gets the family jug, an heirloom brought from overseas by one of the first Penhallow/Dark women. The "fight" over the family jug breaks one match while promoting another unlikely one, causes a women who left her husband on thier wedding night to be reconciled and many other happenings to occur. The big night when who will get the jug finally arrives - who will get the prized heirloom? you'll have to read the book to find out. This book is humorous, poignant and presents a dozen morales along the way.

    If you liked other books by L.M. Montgomery, you'll be enchanted with this novel.
