Forget Me Knot

Dinah Knot leaves her old life behind for Honey Hill, Georgia, opening a pretzel shop called Knotty and Nice to be closer to her sister. Her new neighbor is Jack Jones, who runs the flower shop next door, and their first meeting, his flowers against her pretzels, feels like the start of something.

Then Jack acts like they have never met. Dinah cannot tell if he is forgetting each encounter or keeping his distance on purpose. His shifting, elusive moods become as pressing a question as whether he likes her at all.

Forget Me Knot opens the Happy in Honey Hill series, a small town romance played mostly for laughs. The door stays closed on the romance itself, and a light Christian thread runs under the comedy. A sister, a shop full of regulars and a nosy town crowd in around the central will he or won't he.

The humor lands as often as the heart does. Dinah stays the one steady thing while Jack keeps changing shape around her.
