Women's Fiction
Sugar Wallace did not believe in love at first sight, but
her bees did. . . . Every spring Sugar Wallace coaxes her sleepy honeybee queen—
presently the sixth in a long line of Queen Elizabeths—out
of the hive and lets her crawl around a treasured old map.
Wherever the queen stops is their next destination, and this
year it's New York City. Sugar sets up her honeybees on the balcony of an East
Village walk-up and then––as she's done everywhere since
leaving South Carolina––she gets to know her neighbors. She
is, after all, a former debutante who believes that manners
make the world a better place even if they seem currently
lacking in the big city. Plus, she has a knack for helping people. There's Ruby with
her scrapbook of wedding announcements; single mom Lola;
reclusive chef Nate; and George, a courtly ex-doorman. They
may not know what to make of her bees and her politeness,
but they can't deny the magic in her honey. And then there's Theo, a delightfully kind Scotsman who
crosses Sugar's path as soon as she gets into town and is
quickly besotted. But love is not on the menu for Sugar. She
likes the strong independent woman she's become since
leaving the South and there's nothing a charmer like Theo
can do to change her mind . . . only her bees can do that. The Wedding Bees is a novel about finding sweetness where
you least expect it and learning to love your way home.
