This is an auction for THE HONEY QUEEN by Cathy Kelly.

Amazon.com reviews:

“It's easy to fall in love with the beautiful town of Redstone - the locals wave and chat to each other, the shops and cafes are full of cheerful hustle and bustle. And amidst all this activity, two women believe they are getting on just fine. Francesca's boundless energy help her to take everything in her stride. Peggy has always been a restless spirit. But now, focused and approaching thirty, she has opened her own knitting shop on the town's high street. It's a dream come true, but she still feels adrift. Lillie finally makes it back home to Ireland, she is drawn right into the heart of Redstone's thriving community...”

“FIVE STARS!!! I love Cathy Kelly! I have read all her books. I was first introduced to her works by accident. There was a "buy one, get one free" table at the bookstore. I couldn't find my second book, so just randomly grabbed one of hers. She is now my favourite author. This is a book in her usual, comforting format. We meet several women struggling with life's choices and family dynamics. We get to see their growth and change. One of the things I love best about her writing is the women and the friendships they develop. Age and socioeconomic status are never barriers. It is women supporting women. While there are always men the main stories in her books are the relationships between the women. This book did not disappoint. Do not let the title fool you, it has nearly nothing to do with bee-keeping. It is a great book to curl up to on a rainy day. As are all of hers! It is a fantastic read."
