Honey Acres

The birds and the bees and longtime rivalries... For Tansy Hill, nothing is sweeter than honey from her farm-except maybe revenge on the man whose father stole her family's secret honey recipe years ago. Dane "The Viking" Knudson has been Tansy's rival since childhood, and though he's grown into a frustratingly handsome charmer, he's also standing between her and the best honey award at the Honey Bee Festival, which Honey Hill Farms desperately needs to stay afloat. Fanning the sparks that have forever flown between them, the competition is on. Sure, Tansy and Dane have plenty in common-more than they'll admit-but Dane's plans to expand Viking Honey are also on the line. When buried family secrets come to light, they'll have to decide whether taking a chance on each other is worth risking the happiness they've been longing for. Bonus novella! Camellia Hill had long since given up any hope of finding true love. But now she has two suitors vying for her hand and is faced with a decision only her heart can make. Honey Acres

For a cheerful beekeeper and her reclusive new neighbor, love is the sweetest surprise... Astrid Hill can calm a hive full of restless bees, but she has no idea how to make her gruff new neighbor smile. Charlie Driver intends to hightail it out of Honey, Texas, as soon as he's sold his aunt's property, and Astrid worries her family's adjoining honey business may be affected. But however aloof-and annoyingly attractive-Charlie may be, his daughters are too adorable to ignore. Charlie would rather untangle a line of computer code than deal with people, and the stress of single parenthood isn't helping. Yet Astrid has a knack for overcoming his resistance to this quirky small town and her beloved bees. What if his girls become attached, only to once again lose someone precious? Then again, in love, the more you risk your heart, the sweeter the reward...

Can best friends become something even better? Coming home to Honey, Texas, for her aunt's wedding should be a joyful experience, but Rosemary Hill's heart is low. She's lost funding for her bee genomics project and has been betrayed by her trusted mentor. Reuniting with Everett, her best friend, helps take the sting out. Soon, Rosemary is helping Everett plan bee-friendly park events—and getting oddly jealous when he's pursued by her high school nemesis. Honey's most eligible bachelor has a secret—he's loved Rosemary for as long as he can remember. Everett always hesitated to risk their friendship by asking for more, but at last he's ready. That is, until Rosemary is offered her dream job. What kind of best friend would ask her to give that up? Or perhaps the butterflies they're both feeling mean something has changed—in the sweetest possible way...
