“Of Lies and Honey” by award-winning author Donna Norman-Carbone, resets the high bar in women’s fiction. This character-driven, plot-driven novel centers on three women, Harper, Callie, and Raina, from different eras, but they all share a single secret. We meet Harper first, who suffers a crushing loss no mother would want to endure, but she and her husband opt to have a family in a different way. Then we’re introduced to Callie, whose pregnancy is such a disgrace to her upper-crust mother that she is sent to a Catholic home for girls gone astray, The Covenant House. Finally, we meet Raina, whose three children are all in school now. She’d like to have another child, but she has a farm and can’t really afford it, so to make ends meet, she launches a new honey business. These three characters intersect in ways none of them could anticipate, giving the reader a wonderfully engaging look into the choices and influences that shaped their lives as women. … More “Of Lies and Honey” by Donna Norman-Carbone
