The Beekeeper

By Bev Prescott

What happens when a hard-charging attorney is forced to slow down and listen to the bees?

Nora Riendeau is on the cusp of achieving the capstone of her legal career. When she collapses during a high-profile case, her doctor orders her to take time off. Reluctantly, Nora realizes that this rare opportunity will allow her to reconnect with her aunt Midge, who has turned to beekeeping to save her farm in Maine. While she's there, Nora becomes friends with a mysterious beekeeper name Avril and reconnects with her old girlfriend, Johanna.

When a powerful storm ravages the small community, the four women join forces to help the town rebuild. Despite this newfound energy and sense of belonging, Nora is compelled to return to her legal career in Boston. But, it doesn't take long for her to begin questioning the decision because she can't seem to shake herself free of the bees and their passion for home and life.

Nora knows she needs to make some hard choices--about her career in Boston, her feelings for Midge, Johanna, and Avril, and her need to listen to the bees. For Nora, critical thinking is second nature, and so it becomes clear that the only answer that matters is whether her truest passion lies in the adrenaline-laced courtrooms of Boston, or with the amazing women at Aunt Midge's apiary.
