Veronica ⭐️'s Reviews > Sunday at the Sunflower Inn

Sunday at the Sunflower Inn is the fourth book in the Honey Creek series. This seems to read well as a standalone but I may have enjoyed it more if I had read the first three books.

The book follows four different couples and their love stories. Each is connected to Honey Creek in some way.
Melody and Michael were young love, disapproved of by Melanie’s parents.
Jessica owns Honey Creek Cafe and had all but given up on love until she comes across the ruggedly handsome Tucson Smith, brother of the local sheriff.
McCoy Mason, out of a job and down on his luck, decides to visit Honey Creek and reconnect with a long lost grandfather. Here he meets local Vet Baylor Blanton and is immediately smitten.
Charles and Lily, in their 60’s, are close friends but they would like to become more and spend more time together as a couple.

There was a bit of everything in this story; mystery, drama, romance and humour. I did find there was way too much angst between all the couples for my liking. I think maybe if the author concentrated on just two couples it may have been easier to keep up. I didn’t feel any chemistry between the couples and found their dialogue strange. McCoy and Tuscon felt like the same person and I think that may have been the result of too many main characters.

I was eager to see how all the different threads and characters would combine. The story kept my interest and I enjoyed it enough to read all the way to the end.
