About the Book
Title: A Lot Like Lavender
Series: Happy in Honey Hill #3
Author: B.R. Goodwin
Publisher: Independent
Release Date: August 3, 2026
Genre: Closed door romantic comedy
Operating Purple Pastures & Alpaca on my own was not ever in my plans, but neither was becoming a widow and a single mom at twenty-two. Though I love this land and the life I’ve built for myself and my daughter—including the alpacas we adore, the strays we’ve taken in along the way, and the rolling hills of lavender surrounding our farm—all the years of hard work and one-woman juggling since James’ death may not be enough to keep it all together.
In fact, I’m failing. Miserably. At farming, running a small business, managing the wild women of the Honey Hill PTA, and maintaining any semblance of a personal life.
To top off my utter insufficiencies, I’m now being forced to accept help from the last person I ever expected to show his face again, Jordan Love. But—though it pains me to admit—having him around repairing fences, caring for my fur babies, and bonding with Molly is the first time I haven’t felt so alone in all this since I lost my husband.
And most unexpectedly, Jordan's return to my life feels a lot like mending my heart.
________
For ten years, I’ve done a great job working through the grief of losing my best friend and the shame of selfishly walking away from the people we both cared about when I should have stayed. Even still, I knew coming back home to Honey Hill would dredge up regrets for past decisions. But when I see Emory Nelson for the first time since James’ death, I don’t expect the feelings I’ve kept well-suppressed for so long to come bubbling to the surface. Feelings I’ll need to get well under control if I intend to stick around.
I ran away when she needed me most. With a second chance to show up for Emory and her daughter, there’s no way I can walk away again. I'm determined to be someone she can depend on, even if it means forever pretending I don't want more.
Challenging. Beautiful. Forebearing. Resilient. Worthwhile…
Love looks a lot like lavender.

PTA moms are crazy.
I’m not quite sure how I got roped into this PTA gig in the first place, but I
vaguely remember being guilt-tripped on day one of Molly’s Honey Hill Elementary
education. A woman in a perfectly pressed linen pantsuit and a french bun handed me a
plate of freshly baked welcome brownies and gave me a, frankly, inspiring speech about
shaping my daughter’s future with my voice and my presence.
I don’t know what sort of witchcraft she put in those brownies, but I remember
feeling energized. And powerful. And filled with gooey, warm, melt-in-my-mouth
chocolate. After that, it’s all a bit of a blur.
Taking Molly’s education into my proverbial hands and showing the world what a
single mom was capable of while in the midst of a chocolate-induced haze, I vaguely
remember signing my name and life away on that dotted line five years ago and have
faithfully shown my face, biweekly, for this vast wasteland they call a PTA meeting ever
since. And never once have I seen those brownies, or any other chocolate baked goods,
at a meeting again.
PTA is a lie.
