Between You, Me, and the Honeybees

Between You, Me, and the Honeybees by Emily McGovern follows Josie Hazeldine, a high school graduate who is determined to spend her summer in her California hometown, running the family's beekeeping business, Hazeldine Honey. However, there's a catch—Josie has secretly turned down her college acceptance, something her proud mother doesn't know. Josie?s world becomes even more complicated when she meets the neighbor's grandson, a charming boy who is visiting for the summer. He's also a Blumstein, the Hazeldines' rival in the annual Honey Show, and they quickly begin a secret romance. As Josie navigates her tangled web of lies, family expectations, and forbidden love, she faces a dilemma: can she hold on to both her passion for beekeeping and the boy she?s falling for without her secrets tearing everything apart?
