The Honeybee Cafe - Paperback

by Kay Michaels (Author)

Jasmira Groves is a widow, mother, and proud owner of The Honeybee Café in the enchanted town of Everly Hollow. Life is finally steady, and she's ready to open her heart again...even though the dating world is a dumpster fire.

Dominik Wilcott has always been there for her. He's tall, dark, and devastatingly handsome. He owns the town flower shop, and he's a werewolf. He's also her closest friend, her daughter's godfather, and her late husband's best friend. So no, she's never looked at him as anything more.

At least, not until the Blood Rose Moon rises.

His wolf turns possessive. Always watching and... hungry. Suddenly, the way he looks at her, the way he touches her, feels different.

The moon pulls at her heart, weaving desire and fate together until pretending becomes impossible.

Does she protect the life she rebuilt or risk everything for a love written in the stars?

Because once the bond begins, there's no unfeeling it. There's no turning back.

And she's not sure friendship will ever be enough again.
