About the Book
"With a moody teenager in tow, Jewel Benedict returns to the family farm to help her aging parents. Turning the old farmhouse into a charming B&B seems like a fun solution to looming money problems, but juggling her dad's dementia, an old flame, and the oh-so-helpful neighbors is not exactly what she had in mind when she uprooted her life"--Book Synopsis
When life feels like it's closing in around you, sometimes the solution is to open the doors wide and invite others in . . .
Jewel McKerry is on the brink of unraveling as she heads home to Oregon to help care for her father who has early-onset dementia. Her thirteen-year-old daughter is upset about the move. Her beekeeper dad is a humorous handful. Her mom is overworked and overwhelmed. Finances are stretched tight. And, according to her father, the neighbors are nothing but trouble.
Despite all of these challenges, Jewel takes on one more when she convinces her parents to turn their decrepit farmhouse into a B&B in order to make some needed money. Her old high school flame turned contractor steps in to help, but Jewel isn't sure she can really trust him. And those "troublesome" neighbors? The handsome widower and his teenage daughter just might be the key to making all this work.
Get ready for a summer filled with family, good humor, and new beginnings!
