For Love Or Honey by Staci Hart

A Review by Wendy
4.5 Oh, What Has Happened Stars
* * * * 1/2 
Spoiler Free
I automatically click anything by Staci Hart. She has just the right take on so many things for me. What I appreciate is how she can weave real-life issues into the romances she writes. It never is too much, just enough to allow the reader to ponder and think for a moment about what was presented.

In For Love or Honey, we have a small town that has become the target of a company that wants its mineral rights.
Normally, the state would be the negotiator but in this case, it seems there are six families that own their land and rights. This is causing this company the need to bring in Grant Stone, The Closer.

Grant is a man who learned from his father that focus, control is everything. It allows the person to be in charge of himself and others. Grant cuts a figure that is hard to ignore and has a history of always getting his way. He is at the specific town hall meeting to woo the town and families to sign over their rights. What he wasn't expecting was the greeting he received from the Blum Sisters.

Nope, a warm egg to the face was not what he used to, and the fierce determination mirrored on the thrower's face was something he liked seeing. He handled this the same way he handled all things, charming, and lightly in front of the town.

Jo Blum was not going to let some suit, granted a handsome suit, bulldozer her family's honey farm that has been around for generations. She would put up a fight and hope to show this man how important this farm and all the others were to the town and life.

Oh, this is a fun read and yet, we know there is going to be a Come to Jesus Moment when everything hits the fan. The good news is that we are in the solid talented hands of Ms. Hart.

Here's to more of this small town and all the other Blum sisters. 
 

 

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life: a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom to three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She’s been a wife, even though she’s certainly not the cleanest, nor is she the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party--especially if she’s been drinking whiskey--and her favorite word starts with f and ends with k.

From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north in Denver, where snow is magic and the mountains have become home. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, gaming, or designing graphics.
