 Second book in The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series.

Newly engaged Precious Ramotswe continues to solve local mysteries as she negotiates her relationship with master mechanic Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni. Watching them decide where to live, the matter of the engagement ring, and the surprise arrival of two foster children is gently humorous and true to life.

Absolutely wonderful. I especially recommend the audio version.
