He Should Have Told the Bees by Amanda Cox
Beckett (Beck) Walsh loves working alongside her father in their apiary. But when her father passes away unexpectedly, her life takes an unexpected turn. Suddenly, it is up to her to run Walsh Farm, including managing the finances, which she has never done. But there is a catch—she is only part owner of the farm, and the other owner, someone she knows nothing about, has the power to sell the business. Why would her father risk something that meant so much to both of them?
Callie Peterson is attempting to open her first storefront for her natural body care products. So, when she learns that she has been named in the trust of a man she’s never heard of, she views this as an opportunity to take care of her struggling finances. Not only will the extra money support her new start-up business but it will also help her absent mother get into rehab for her lifelong substance abuse issues.
As Beck and Callie try to navigate through the difficult conundrum, they must first sort through a complex and entangled past full of secrets in order to pave the way for a brighter future for both of them.
