"They say you can catch more bees with honey, but when it comes to Ryan Holt, I'm not so sure honey-or anything sweet-will ever be enough."
The moment Ryan Holt, my long-time enemy and the infuriatingly handsome owner of Holt Honey Enterprises, sets foot on my family's flower farm, sparks fly-and not the good kind. Our beekeeping philosophies couldn't be more different, and our rivalry has been a blazing fire that refuses to burn out. But when a blight threatens the entire local bee population, my worst nightmare becomes a reality: I have to team up with the very man I swore to never work alongside.
As our farms face devastation, our forced partnership pulls me into a whirlwind of fiery arguments, late-night farm rescues, and unexpected moments that make my heart race for reasons I wish I could ignore. Beneath Ryan's tough, infuriating exterior, there's a man who cares deeply for the land-and for me, if I dare to believe it.
But trusting him means risking everything: the future of my beloved farm, the memory of my parents' legacy, and the walls I've built to protect my heart. And with new threats emerging from places I least expect, the stakes have never been higher.
This isn't just a story about saving the bees or our farms; it's about healing, letting go, and the kind of love that transforms you in ways you never saw coming. Can a sworn enemy become something much more, or are some rivalries too deep to turn into love?
