The girl behind the bar with a guarded smile has something in her eyes that pulls me in. The one who insists she doesn’t need protecting—even after I watch them threaten her right in front of me.
Brinley isn’t just a risk. She’s a secret that certain people don’t want getting out.
I knew she was my head coach’s daughter. What I didn’t understand was why no one else did.
I’ve spent my whole life building a name on the ice. Now I’m being warned to stay away from her or risk losing everything I’ve worked for.
And the pressure doesn’t just come from the bench. The threats aren’t subtle anymore—stopping at nothing until she leaves town. They expect me to fall in line, focus on blocking shots, keep my mouth shut, and choose my career over her.
But they’re wrong.
Because this time, I’m not just protecting the net.
I’m protecting her. And the truth they’ll do anything to keep silent.

~Blurb~
Greed can be sticky. Murder even stickier.
Autumn arrives in Willowby, and the Golden Harvest Market is buzzing with excitement. Local beekeepers are preparing for the annual Honey Showdown, and Tamsin Blake is ready to debut her honey-lavender scones using a gift from her kindly neighbor, reclusive apiarist Murray Wood. But when Murray fails to appear at his usual stall and is later found dead in his shed, apparently stung to death, panic spreads as fast as spilled honey.
The scene doesn’t add up. Murray’s protective suit is untouched, several hives are missing, and rumors swirl of someone stealing bees at night. Determined to protect her community and her café’s “Bee Sweet Week,” Tamsin begins to investigate and discovers Murray had more than a few enemies.
Suspects include a rival commercial beekeeper with expanding ambitions, an estranged nephew eager to sell the land, a furious neighbor tired of buzzing invaders, and a temperamental mead maker cut off from Murray’s prized honey supply. Everyone has a motive…and sticky fingers.
A Honeycomb to Die For is a charming and twisty cozy mystery with autumn vibes, delicious treats, and a sting in the tale. Perfect for fans of culinary mysteries, amateur sleuths, and small-town secrets.

About IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA:
He ghosted me once, now he’s supposed to protect me?
I don’t need a bodyguard—I run a small-town lavender farm, for bee’s sake. But when my identical twin sister lands the movie role of a lifetime that’s being shot in my hometown I get one anyway.
And guess which broody, tattooed protector the studio sends to keep the paparazzi off my porch?
Last month’s almost one-night stand.
The guy with the wicked mouth and heated eyes who slipped out before the fun even started. But turns out the sexy jerk is excellent at rescuing me from sneaky photographers at the market. Then the coffee shop. I’m trying hard to stay mad after the third time my new bodyguard saves me.
To top it all off, he’s staying in the cottage at my farm. With me. And there’s only one bed.
Maybe if we finally give in and finish what we started, it’ll relieve the tension? But one night quickly turns into another. Then into late-night secrets and soft confessions we shouldn’t say out loud. Especially since he’s leaving and I’m staying, and there’s no way we can be more than a summer romance that ends far too soon.

He’s touching me in some kind of slo-mo seduction. His fingers move to my jawline, the pads grazing along my face, then coming to a stop at my chin where he holds me. Roams his thumb right under my lower lip. Breathes out hard, full of wanting.
I am done.
“Just kiss me,” I whisper, already begging.
His lips curve up in the pleased grin of a man who holds the cards. “Patience,” he says, voice deep and in charge.

🪻Review🪻 Ripley’s small town is about to be invaded when her twin sister Haven lands her first starring role and the production is set to commence in their hometown. Since she looks like Ripley the production company has decided to protect her however the security detail happens to be Banks, the man she almost shared a night with until he left her with only a note.
Banks has recently opened a security company with his friend and the contract with the production company is something he doesn’t want to jeopardize. Even once he and Ripley sort through their initial misunderstanding she is still off limits as he can’t be with her and protect her but keeping their relationship professional might just be the most difficult part of the job.
The interactions between them are filled with heat and humor and I enjoyed the push/pull as Banks was battling all the reasons they shouldn’t be together even as the feelings continued to intensify. Erin Mallon brings out the feisty side of Ripley while J.F. Harding has you feeling all the charm of Bank’s character.
