Such a fun read – highly recommend – To the Honeymoon and Back by Isabella May

My Review:

This is a brilliant read, dealing with issues close to my heart
Acknowledging the care needed right from the start.

Travel journo Taylor is severely allergic to peanuts in this fun read,
Avoiding them always is what she needs
But her honeymoon visit to Heavenly Devonly Honey Farm
Has her coming to serious harm!

Anaphylactic shock is potentially deadly, it is true
So what on earth was her new husband getting up to?
The evidence shows Taylor they shouldn't have married
Starting getting divorced therefore shouldn't be tarried!

It took a stranger to ensure an ambulance was sent
TV chef, Zach Knight, helped make sure aid was lent.
Weeks later Taylor encounters him again
But maybe this time she'll not end in pain!

A double booked room with nowhere else to stay
This surely won't be a great start for either anyway.
But when the encounters keep coming along
Maybe together is where they belong?

I really enjoyed this brilliant read
And hope it proves to bee just what you also need.
There's drama and laughter, with bees and honey, too
And I have no hesitation highly recommending it to you!

Synopsis:

When Taylor’s husband commits his third crime against marriage, days into their honeymoon, cruelly laughing at her anaphylactic shock during a tasting session at Heavenly Devonly Honey Farm, she files for immediate divorce. It shouldn’t take a stranger to call an ambulance! Even if he is the swoonworthy Devonshire TV chef, Zach Knight.

Weeks later, sworn off men for eternity, travel journo Taylor reluctantly finds herself back in the West Country to work on a UK holiday hotspot assignment: destination Woolacombe. At least it’s north of the county, kind of far away from the bittersweet memories of her last visit to these parts.

But when Zach just happens to embark on a coastal tour to promote his latest cookbook, Taylor has her work cut out in more ways than one. He’s the last person she expects to raise her antennae when she checks into her hotel room to find that it’s been double booked between the two of them… and there is nowhere else to stay in town.

The harder Taylor tries to bee-hive as their agendas outside the bedroom mysteriously fuse, the more Zach is bee-witched.

But can she give into temptation without getting stung?

A steamy and tasty meet-cute romance with a peanut sensitive protagonist and a golden retriever of a leading male.
