Synopsis
As a rebellious teenager, Honey managed to escape her father’s circle of influence and reinvent herself in a world of art and beauty, working for a high-end auction house in Los Angeles. Now in her twilight years, she decides to return home and unexpectedly falls in love. But in her family, nothing has changed. When her grandnephew Michael bursts into her life in what appears to be a drug-fueled frenzy, and her Lexus gets jacked, it’s hard to keep minding her own business. As old cruelties begin to resurface, Honey is no longer sure what she really wants—to forgive or to avenge.
Review
Everyone needs a little Honey in their lives! She sees her own flaws, tries to judge others' flaws, speaks her mind, knows she is, and doesn't put up with shit from anyone.
It took a little over half the book for me to get into this story, but I prefer a plot-driven story over character-driven. Once I got to know Honey, though, I couldn't put it down.
If you need a sassy old lady to relate to, fall in love with, or be your bestie...get to know Honey!
