My Rating: 1.0
Asher and Lily both know what it is like to start over. Asher and his mom Olivia left when Asher's dad showed his dark side. Lily says her father is dead but she just wants nothing to do with him. Asher and Lily dating seems so natural.
Then one day, Olivia receives a phone call: Lily is dead, and Asher is being questioned by the police. Olivia is adamant that her son is innocent. But she would be lying if she didn’t acknowledge the flashes of his father’s temper in Ash, and as the case against him unfolds, she realizes he’s hidden more than he’s shared with her.
I enjoyed the part about the bees and beekeeping. This had potential but....the characters were flat and then it took the twist south. WARNING SPOILER ALERT: They take two kids that could be an interesting story and half way in reveal that one of them is transgender. I get that part of the intrigue was springing "the twist" on us 50% of the way through. This is a very divisive topic that some people are VERY tired of having shoved down their throats. It was a deal killer for me and sure wish I had known before I picked up this book. Between the domestic abuse and the transgender it waivered between pandering and lecturing. So many things were wrong with this plot line. Gag.
