About this audiobook
A devoted small-town mayor confronts an old flame over the fate of a historic inn in this delightful romance from author Joy Avery.
Honeybees, history, and small-town charm are what Honey Hill, North Carolina, is all about. Its mayor, Lunden Pierce, will stop at nothing to protect the town’s historical landmarks and distinctive character. She’s Honey Hill’s greatest champion.
But everything changes when Lunden’s childhood sweetheart, Quade Cannon, returns to town. Though Quade has fond memories of his summers in Honey Hill, he has no use for the historic inn he’s inherited—or the honeybees living in its yard. His plan is to sell the inn and reap the rewards.
For Lunden, though, the threat to Honey Hill’s history means war. Determined to change Quade’s mind, she immerses him in the town’s charm and its honeybee culture. But while he’s falling for Honey Hill, he falls for Lunden, too—and the feeling is mutual. As their summer romance heats up, Lunden has a choice to make: the town she loves or the man who threatens to change it.

This story was taken from a small town, Honey Hill, North Carolina, in which the mayor Lunden Pierce was the heroine, and the hero Quade Cannon had inherited an estate from his aunt [Ms. Shugga Hawthorne] who had passed away. Quade had in his mind that he would come to town and sell the property that he had inherited and move on with his life. Still, things will happen that put a stop to his plan...being 'his childhood sweetheart Lunden, who was now mayor and wouldn't give up without a fight, all because she knew the importance of Honey Hill's historical landmarks such as this coveted historic Inn was to the town.The characters were all well-developed, giving the reader quite an intriguing read, and let's not leave out Lunden's delighted six-year-old son Zachary. He had befriended Quade...loving the connection these two had with each other. What will happen as Lunden and Quade start falling for each other again as steamy chemistry rises between the two? Will these two be able to 'deal with their relationship, business relationship and come to grips with their past relationships?' What did 1 - 4 -3 mean between Lunden and Quade? To find out all of these answers to these questions and more, you will have to pick up "Something So Sweet" to see how well this author brings it all out to the reader.Be ready for a fun second chance romantic read of a town full of nosy townsfolk, gossipers, emotions, drama, and laughter that will keep your attention with all of the banterings in the read.I loved the ending...quote... "We fall in love by chance. We stay in love by choice. I choose you to love, Lunden. I choose you." – Quade Cannon.
