Lena Rose Schwartz hadn't planned to leave her Old Order community in Centerville, Michigan. But then, she could not have foreseen the accident that made her and her siblings orphans. After her parents' funeral, her younger brothers and sisters are farmed out to various nearby relatives. But when the deacon in charge of the arrangements tells her there aren't places enough for everyone, she agrees to go live with her father's second cousin and his family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Beside the fact that Lena has never been more than a few miles from home, she's never met the family she will now be living with. But worse than that is the thought of being separated from her siblings. How will they manage without her to care for them - especially eight-year-old Chris?

Endearing story
- By Myramac on 05-03-18
Publisher's Summary
Though she has blossomed into a beauty, Lily Christner doesn't really believe it. Deep down she still feels like a lonely, gawky teenager. Maybe that's why she's all but promised herself to Paul Glick, the one boy who never teased her in her awkward girlhood, unlike Dan Kanagy, whose creative name-calling left her in tears many a time.
Now he's back in town after two years away and being surprisingly sweet - making Lily unsettlingly yet deliciously nervous. It seems Dan wants Lily's forgiveness...and her heart. But can he convince her - not to mention her protective schwesters and aendi - that despite the past, her future lies with him?

Narrator needs Deutsch lessons
What made the experience of listening to Sweet as Honey the most enjoyable?
The story line was excellent.
What did you like best about this story?
The author made the characters seem real.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
The narration was a bit annoying because she mispronounced so many of the Deutsch words....for instance, "Die" is not pronounced as the act of dying, but "dee" and it was infuriating every time she used the word. Several times I had to turn the book off because I couldn't deal with it.
Any additional comments?
I loved the story, but the narration was something else.

I will not be finishing this series
The main character in this story, Lily, got on my nerves so bad. I don't know much about Amish culture but the author made Lily seem so weak minded that whenever her boyfriend said jump she said how high. Another issue was how easy he could manipulate her with the Word of God, I know that this happens all the time but it was exhausting "watching" Lily make up with Dan then letting Paul manipulate her, it was an endless cycle.
