He Should Have Told the Bees By: Amanda Cox Genre: Fiction, Contemporary Publisher: Revell Publication Year: 2023 Series: Stand Alone My Rating: 5 of 5 stars Synopsis:
Beekeeper Beckett Walsh is living her dream, working alongside her father in their apiary, until his untimely death sends her world into a tailspin. She suddenly finds she must deal with a new part owner of the family business–one who is looking to sell the property. Beck cannot fathom why her father would put her into the position to lose everything they built together. When Callie Peterson is named in the trust of a man she’s never heard of, she’s not sure what to do. Her fledgling business has just taken wing and her mother has reentered her life asking for help getting into rehab for her lifelong substance abuse issues, making Callie’s financial situation rather . . . precarious. She’s sure she has no right to someone else’s farm, but the money from the sale could solve her problems and give her the stability she’s always craved. As these two women navigate their present conundrum, they will discover a complex and entangled past full of secrets–and the potential for a brighter future for both of them. ~Taken from Amanda's site: https://amandacoxwrites.com/books-2/he-should-have-told-the-bees/ My Thoughts: A touching story of two young women who are thrust together after the loss of Beck’s father. To be honest my favorite character was probably Fern. She is a young girl who comes into Beck’s life for the summer and gives Beck the connectivity she needs after just losing her dad. She keeps Beck on her toes with her whimsy and sweet childish enthusiasm. Fern is just what the story needs as Beck and Callie work on managing their anxieties and forging a relationship as they figure out the next steps in their lives. Recommend? Yes, a good story that deals with anxiety and childhood trauma, while also giving you an appreciation for bees. Cheers, Rebecca Revell Reads sent me this complimentary copy to review for them.
