He Should Have Told the Bees

De: Amanda Cox

Narrado por: Stephanie Cozart

Uncovering long-held family secrets may sting at first—but the result can be sweeter than honey

Beekeeper Beckett Walsh is living her dream, working alongside her father in their apiary, until his untimely death sends her world into a tailspin. She suddenly finds she must deal with a new part owner of the family business—one who is looking to sell the property. Beck cannot fathom why her father would put her into the position to lose everything they built together.

When Callie Peterson is named in the trust of a man she's never heard of, she's not sure what to do. Her fledgling business has just taken wing and her mother has reentered her life asking for help getting into rehab for her lifelong substance abuse issues, making Callie's financial situation rather . . . precarious. She's sure she has no right to someone else's farm, but the money from the sale could solve her problems and give her the stability she's always craved.

As these two women navigate their present conundrum, they will discover a complex and entangled past full of secrets—and the potential for a brighter future for both of them.

Not my cup of tea

I had difficulty getting into this book and found myself skipping through most of it.

Flat

Nice story but flat for my taste. Couldn’t wait for it to end, so increased the speed.

Sweet as Honey Love out of Loss

He should have told the bees is a story about healing and discovery. In the story sisters, Callie & Becket live different lives. One girl on a farm raising bees the other neglected moving constantly with an unstable drunken mother. When Beckets father dies they’re pulled together because of his the trust. Then they painfully begin to unravel what connections these two strangers might have. After much work they come to build trust, and a future together.

Good story

I enjoyed the story. There was a bit of religion that was unexpected and I might not have purchased it had I known so I wanted to review it for others. It was sort of a side note and didn’t prevent me from enjoying the book.

Good story on what good can come out of brokenness

I loved this book & how it tells the story of how despite brokenness & childhood trials, choosing forgiveness & healing is possible.
