When Meredith Briscoe attends her estranged mother's
funeral, she reunites with her estranged grandmother, Lilah
Briscoe. Meri wants to pay her respects and head back to
her New York law office. Except nothing happens quickly on
Honey Grove, her grandmother's farm, and events seem to
conspire against Meri at every turn.
Genell Denellin has written a story as languid as warm,
thick honey, like most good Southern fiction. I understood
Meri's frustrations, because I too wanted things to hurry
up. Like Meri, I eventually had to accept the pace of HONEY
GROVE as it was, relax and enjoy the ride. Once I did, I
absolutely enjoyed this story of North meets South, city
slicker meets country, and girl meets boy.
The romance between Meri and Caleb is one of the things that
unfolds slowly albeit in a satisfying fashion. Despite her
initial misgivings, Meri finds that Caleb is a person she
can trust, and Honey Grove is a place she can call home.
HONEY GROVE is replete with quirky characters, human and
animal alike. If you enjoy Southern fiction, particularly
stories with a homespun Texas flavor, you'll enjoy HONEY GROVE.
When Lilah Briscoe is seriously injured, her granddaughter
Meredith feels compelled to save her farm, Honey Grove,
despite their troubled past. Help arrives in the form of bad
boy Caleb Burkett, who awakens feelings Meri didn't know she
had. Maybe now, Meri will finally find the home she always
wanted...
