Resumen del Editor

A talented baker and a small-town sheriff forced into a fake relationship decide whether to take a chance on love in this delectable romance from Joy Avery.

Baker extraordinaire Rylee Harris has a recipe for everything—except love. It’s been five years since she lost her husband, but romance is still a struggle for Rylee. In her small hamlet of Honey Hill, North Carolina, Rylee knows she’ll be the talk of the town when she finds someone new.

To ease her mother’s worries about her love life, Rylee impulsively invents a fake relationship with the only man who’s caught her eye: the town sheriff, Canten Barnes. It’s supposed to be a secret, but secrets don’t last long in Honey Hill. One bit of gossip leads to another, and soon the whole town thinks Rylee and Canten are an item.

As Rylee and Canten embark on a make-believe relationship to save face, they slowly realize that their feelings for each other aren’t fake at all. Can Rylee and Canten keep the charade going—or will the town’s prized baker and respected lawman take a real chance on love?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“The stuff of which Hallmark movies are made, the complete and unabridged audio book featuring the narrative storytelling talents of Yamika Katon-Donegal and Leson Nixon take full and entertaining advantage of Joy Avery's impressive flair for originality and the kind of narrative driven novel that lends itself so well to a fully engaging theatre of the mind experience on the part of the listener.”—Midwest Book Review

“Narrators Katon-Donegal and Nixon complement each other as they develop intrigue and passion and build the drama for these charming characters in small-town Honey Hill, North Carolina. Listeners will question if the relationship between Rylee and Canten was ever fake.”—Booklist

“Rylee and Canten are charming, complex characters whose transition from friends to lovers feels wonderfully organic. The eccentric supporting cast brings on some laugh-out-loud moments that perfectly complement the heavy emotions and sizzling romance. This is a must-read.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Full characters, a beautiful Black escape

Tamika and Leon are an expert pair in this story, hours delightful narrative style they bring to Riley and Canton's characters. Such a sweet story about love, sisterhood, and a nosey ass multi-gen village. A Black southern dreamscape.

Not as predictable as book 1

The music references were exceptional. The humor was over the top. Reminded me of where I grew up

Another 5-Star

You can never go wrong with a book by Joy Avery. Always light hearted, full of laughter, romance, and spice. This author creates characters that you fall in love with. Just beautiful. ~ Onyx

Sweet Story, a little drawn out

Well written, sweet story with romance and some light hearted moments. Story was well developed, but a little drawn out. The female narrarator is really good. Will proactively seek out more audiobooks with her reading.

A Sweet Lovestory

This book was so beautiful!!! There is something so precious about Black Love without the additional trauma or stereotypes. The main characters are so well written, and I found myself laughing out loud along with them.

I need a hundred more of these types of love stories.

love the series

I new to Joy Avery. I have become a fan because of this series. Each character is so well developed and I can imagine myself there, watching everything unfold. little man gets the award for this story. he completely stole the show. So much fun to read, can't wait for the next part of the series!

Another brilliant storyline

Joy Avery, I am officially a fan-girl of yours! Love the details of your stories. They actually place me there in the lives of your characters.

Another trip to Honey Hill

Canten Barnes and Rylee Harris were friends that knew they would do anything for the other. Rylee's mother was a meddling mother. That wanted something more for her children. Watching these towns fall in love was well worth it.. to you from me was just the sweetest thing. And I still don't know what honey cake is but I want to try it.

Tamika Katon-Donegal and Leon Nixon brought to life the characters. I loved going back to visit Joy Avery characters.

Which couple is up next to fall in love in Honey Hill?

A wonderful love story!

I enjoyed every moment of this book! Beautiful story with lots of giggles and the narration was wonderful added to the experience.
