OVERVIEW:
SWEET AS HONEY * Fern Michaels
Natalie is through with pining over her ex. If only her efforts to be social again didn’t lead to repeated run-ins with an infuriating beekeeper at the local farmer’s market. Yet Garrett keeps buzzing around. And as Natalie watches his patience and dedication in tending his hives, she begins to wonder if life has a sweet surprise in store.

EVERYTHING SHE’D EVER WANTED * Lori Foster
Annabeth can see that her neighbor’s handsome nephew, Devlin, has his hands full, raising his little girl single-handed. Yet though his life is frazzled, it’s full of the kind of joy and togetherness she longs for. And when Devlin’s daughter and Annabeth’s tiny dog fall hard for each other, it might be the start of more than one beautiful friendship.

THE MEMORY CABIN * Carolyn Brown

It’s an annual tradition to reconnect with the woman who helped her deal with her mother’s passing along with the end of her marriage. But this year, lives are changing, and dreams are evolving. And perhaps Jenna’s heart has healed enough to welcome a new love that arrives with the first flowers of spring . . .

Lilac Time by Fern Michaels; Carolyn Brown; Lori Foster Review

It’s been quite a while since I have read a Fern Michael story and when I saw this book, I knew it would be a beautiful spring story.

Three different authors and three different stories make for three wonderful experiences.

The book by Michael’s was definitely a unique way to build a romance. The male love interest was someone everyone knew except for the female main character.

Small towns have a way of growing on you and this story offered an interesting take on life in a small town. A sweet way to write a story!

Book Two by Lori Foster was so special. I love the natural way Foster tells this story. Nothing is forced and the characters are amazing. It is like a warm hug featuring a sweet blended family. It’s a feel-good story that shows off Foster’s fabulous storytelling abilities.

Book Three by Carolyn Brown brought back so many memories for me! I am a huge lake girl and the feeling of nostalgia was strong with this one. Good friends, healing, and a budding romance made this a memorable, feel-good story I loved.

Overall, Lilac Time is a wonderful addition to your spring and summer romance stories. A sweet and heartwarming choice!

4 STARS!!
