A SONG IN THEIR HEARTS by Janet Lambert

 Tippy is back! And she's knocked up! Ken Prescott is the father, of course. 

Just kidding, it's our stalwart Peter. There is some heteronormative arguing about if the baby will be a boy or a girl and it turns out to be a girl - Tippy Two, which is just as gross as can be. But the Jordans are lovely. 

But I have BIG NEWS - CANDY KANE is back! You know I love some Candy. She and Barton are living in the Philippines as well and Tip and Candy have become friends. 

It turns out that Barton is still a man-baby. He is controlling and secretive and I do wonder if it isn't chemical, because his mother has always been a delight. 

The struggles in this book are two-fold. The Jordans are going back state-side and they are having a baby and it's not easy when the army tells you next to nothing about what is going to happen. But Tippy is a natural army wife and she makes it work. There is also a housekeeper/cook who is annoying, but also excellent. 

The other issue is Barton making plans without consulting Candy at all which leads to Candy singing in public like a whore and Barton getting worse, and Candy taking a job singing on a record and oh my the DRAMA! 

The book ends on a bit of a cliff hanger with the Jordan's on a boat back to the states. Stay tuned!
