On the rolling hills that border the Brazos River lies Honey Creek, Texas—a small town where family bonds and legends run deep, and friendship and love are always close to hand . . .

Piper Kate McKenzie, mayor of Honey Creek, won’t let a major scandal rip her quirky hometown apart, or jeopardize her dream of one day running for higher office. So she calls for reinforcements to find the source of corruption in the sheriff’s office—two men recommended by her Texas Ranger brothers . . .

At seventeen, Sam Cassidy left home, heeding the call to be a preacher. Later he found another mission: serving his country. After his one love died, he lost both his faith and his fight. Drifting from one assignment to another, he’s come to Honey Creek intending to earn his pay check and move on.

As a Dallas cop, Coby Riddell has grown skeptical and wary. People have a bad habit of disappointing each other, but the job never lets him down. This job in particular—his first undercover—is too intriguing to pass up.

Piper, who’s been wondering if Honey Creek might be the only real love of her life, suddenly finds herself drawn to two very different men. And if she can keep her town—and her heart—from going completely off the rails, there may be a sweet, unexpected future in store . . .

Review

Breakfast at the Honey Creek Cafe is the first book in the Honey Creek series. There is always such a sweet charm about small town books such as this. This was a wonderful introduction to the series. The book interwoven the lives of different characters and blending them into this small community that has personality and heart. Since it’s told from several perspectives and storylines, I’d take your time to get to know them. Once you do, you will be hooked on their stories. There is that Texas charm that will grow on you and embrace you into their little town. As the book progresses, they will come together in a way that will engage and anticipate what is to come in their lives.

Overall, it was a good read and start for the series. It had a little suspense, humor, romance and all the fixins of a good small town novel. I’m curious about what is to come for Honey Creek and look forward to the next book in the series.
