GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK - PEOPLE'S BOOK OF THE WEEK - A POPSUGAR BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR

Olivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life--living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher--was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in and taking over her father's beekeeping business.

Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.

And for just a short while, these new beginnings are exactly what Olivia and Lily need. Their paths cross when Asher falls for the new girl in school, and Lily can't help but fall for him, too. With Ash, she feels happy for the first time. Yet she wonders if she can trust him completely. . . .

Then one day, Olivia receives a phone call: Lily is dead, and Asher is being questioned by the police. Olivia is adamant that her son is innocent. But she would be lying if she didn't acknowledge the flashes of his father's temper in Ash, and as the case against him unfolds, she realizes he's hidden more than he's shared with her.

Mad Honey is a riveting novel of suspense, an unforgettable love story, and a moving and powerful exploration of the secrets we keep and the risks we take in order to become ourselves.

Compelling & Inspiring

The exploration of what it means to have a life-altering dose of mad honey. It makes you sick, it’s painful and scary, but there are good people to help you heal. I learned so much about what it’s like to be in a physically abusive relationship and what it means to identify as transgender, and how kindness and acceptance in a welcoming and beautiful place make all the difference when growing into who you’re supposed to be. And, I learned much about tending bees and the power of the queen, and her court of drones and workers. All sacrificing themselves to produce something that is as healing as it is delicious. This is a story of women’s endurance, and female strength; of survival and flourishing. Of seeing and pushing through the bad to live in the good. Of creating something wonderful against all negative odds and perceptions. And, of deep down honesty and unconditional love. Throw in a murder mystery with self-realized characters, and this is a compelling and inspiring read.
