Editorial Reviews

An artist moving to a new town meets a man who encourages her to give love a chance. Although her name makes her sound like a real sweetie, reclusive Honey D'Amourvell has never been a people person. She's been blessed with the familial gift of being able to see into others' pasts and futures, though she views this gift as a curse. In fact, it's only the death of her favorite relative, Aunt Bea, that gets Honey out of her Oregon art studio. Bea's bequest of an apartment and store in the quaint town of Sugarberry Island, Ga., encourages Honey to make the cross-country trek in the hope of starting a new life, but no sooner does she arrive in town than her ancient car goes kaput. That's not the only thing that seems to be going wrong for Honey. Apparently, the store and apartment she's been planning on have been leased to Leilani Dunne and her cupcake empire. Though Leilani's sweet as frosting about the misunderstanding, Honey's at a loss for what to do next. Meanwhile, the usually aloof mechanic Dylan Ross finds himself thinking about Honey so much that he hopes the special parts he ordered for her car never come in. Dylan hopes he can talk Honey into letting her guard down and embracing her gift, and him, as much as she feels that she's starting to embrace Sugarberry. Expanding her Sugarberry series to include a new character, Kauffman (Babycakes, 2012, etc.) dishes sweet desserts. Though she breaks no new ground, audiences will find the cast of regulars and newcomers easy to like.
