Christian contemporary romance
Welcome to the Honey B&B
Jewel returns to Oregon with her teenage daughter to help her mother care for her father, whose early-onset dementia has made daily life increasingly unpredictable. With family finances strained, she proposes turning the worn farmhouse into a bed-and-breakfast, even though renovations add another layer of chaos. An old high-school flame now working as a contractor and a widowed neighbor with a daughter complicate Jewel's assumptions about whom she can rely on. This contemporary novel balances caregiving realities with humor, family friction, community, romance, and the possibility of a fresh start.
