The Beekeeper's Cottage by author Emma Davies will touch many of your emotions as you read the story of Grace and Amos. Grace is a beautiful woman who loves her home and gardens, enjoys beekeeping, and is ready to ask her selfish husband for a divorce. She has had enough of Paul's lies and infidelities and all she wants is her home with some peace of mind. Amos is a very intuitive stranger who offers to work and help at the flower farm in the village of Hope Corner. As the friendship between Grace and Amos deepens, Grace wonders if Amos is carrying a burden and a secret, maybe he is trying to escape from an event or memories. Life for Grace is becoming more difficult as Paul refuses to allow Grace to have her house. It is the way he can hurt her the most. Paul's boss asks Grace to host a business house party for very important clients. He makes an agreement with Grace that he will persuade Paul to allow Grace to have her house if his company wins the new contract. So it is 'Game On' as Grace, Amos, and her dear friends Flora and Ned try to help. During all the work to freshen the house, beekeeping, and tending friendships, Grace realizes what is most important to her life.
The Beekeeper's Cottage is a wonderful and encouraging summer read!
