The Dragon and the Beekeeper's Widow
She offered him shelter. He offered her forever.
The one good thing to come out of Ada Underhill's marriage was her daughter, Rosie. Now widowed and alone, Ada’s focus is on Rosie and her apiary. Love is the last thing on her mind.
Then a wounded male stumbles out of the Wildwood.
Towering, winged, and fiercely protective, Sarkan has spent years keeping his distance from the people of Moonbell Hollow. The last place he expects to find refuge is in a cozy cottage with a stubborn little female who refuses to be intimidated by him.
Rosie quickly decides the mysterious dragon belongs with them, and although Ada tries to keep her distance, the fierce attraction growing between them soon becomes impossible to ignore.
But when a stranger threatens everything Ada has built, Sarkan will do whatever it takes to keep her and Rosie safe—even if it means reminding Moonbell Hollow exactly why dragons are feared.
Because once a dragon gives his heart, there's no turning back.
A sweet and spicy cozy fantasy romance featuring a protective dragon, a resilient widow, forced proximity, found family, small-town magic, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
Welcome to Moonbell Hollow, where magic lingers, neighbors become family, and even monsters find their happily ever after. Each book in the cozy spicy Moonbell Hollow series can be read as a standalone.

This was another fab addition to this fun multi-author series. Single mom Ada finds dragon Sarkan after a wicked storm and gets him to her home to help him heal. Their time together really let the attraction bloom between them. However, drama invades from the village and I was on the edge of my seat worrying they wouldn't get their HEA. Silly me, of course the author wasn't going to let us down 😁 Expect to get caught up in the emotions, drama, connection and hot romance as Sarkan and Ada get their fab and steamy happy ending. Good fun!

I have read books from Honey before, and I was excited for this one. I expected to be similar to the ones I have read more cozy and funny romances. But honestly, I was greatly surprised with this story.
Our main characters are Ada, a widow beekeeper with a little daughter, and Sarkan, a dragon with a talent for carpenter work. After the death of his husband, Ada has been surviving and paying his late husband's debts, and the day after a big storm finds a hurt dragon man in the wildlands behind her cottage. Without much consideration, Ada helps Sarkan and takes him to her cottage to treat his wounds.
I was surprised with the story because the characters are more serious, not the typical main characters with marked different personalities. Since the beginning of the story, I felt like Ada and Sarkan were more the reserved type, the ones that show their care and love in actions. Since the beginning, it's pretty obvious that Ada was hurt in her previous marriage, and I loved how Sarkan became like an anchor for her; she felt safe because he had her back, but he let her fight her battles and take her decisions. Sarkan had been solitary for over ten years, and when he finds himself in a cottage with a woman and a little girl, he is only thinking of escaping back to his cave. But early in the story we start to see how much he really has been waiting for: company, for someone to accept him fully, and a true family.
Even when Ada and Sarkan have to face difficulties in their relationship (between them and with others), it felt like they always have each other. Ada always suffered because she had to manage everything alone, or their livelihood and house would crumble, but Sarkan offered her a silent hand since the beginning. Sarkan was rejected by his people, and to protect himself, he isolated himself from the world; but deep inside he always wanted to be accepted, and Ada finally gave him the certainty that she is going to be with him no matter what.
And honestly, the cherry on top was Rosie (Ada's little daughter); she's full of energy and a sweet kid. She made a lot of serious times more enjoyable and her deep questions formulated like innocent doubts. The link that is formed between her and Sarkan is so beautiful, a truly found family type. And her last question on the epilogue is just hilarious. I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to read this story, and I am going to keep reading more of the author.

Ada and Sarkan are exquisitely written. Both have complex pasts, and both characters’ choices and actions throughout the book are consistent with the effects of their pasts. The pacing in this character driven tale is perfect in all regards; character development, romance, action.
Sarkan is stoic and taciturn, but when he speaks, no matter how few, his words do heavy lifting. His body does heavy lifting too, of both the acts of service and physical touch variety; but I don’t just mean spicy touch. The way this dragon loves on Rosie would melt your – ahem – heart (and other things if you’re Ada). In fact, while Ada’s autonomy as a woman now that she is widowed is the driving force of this book, her realizations regarding her feelings for Sarkan are almost always tied to seeing him with her daughter.
But “Beekeeper’s Widow” is too generous to William Underhill. Ada is the beekeeper, William was - the plagiarist? The thief? So let’s talk about the real beekeeper, Ada Ashby-Underhill.
Ada is amazing. She’s kind, hardworking, loves her daughter, is a good friend, takes in wounded dragons whether they want her to or not, and she may be small but she is stubborn. I’m having difficulty writing about her without giving you a book report or spoilers! She is also a stoic, in the way that women sometimes have to be when they’re married to men who are lazy and want to be liked and well-regarded – except by their wives.
Ada has been doing everything alone for so long – long before her husband died – that it isn’t until Sarkan quietly and without comment starts carrying some of the load that she gets to remember who she was and how she was when she had the room to breathe.
This is a slow burn, low but not no spice romance and Sarkan heats up the room - literally, he's a dragon, he runs hot... There are a couple explicit scenes, but it’s the first kiss that will melt you; the sweetest, gentlest, most consensual kiss of her life. (Note, there is no DV/SA history, she just “hadn’t known anyone could ask first, and then wait for her answer”)
This low angst story also provides us with an excellent ensemble of supporting characters and Wildwood critters. I love the friendship between Ada and her best friend Sera, Rosie is a delight, the villains are the perfect antagonists for this story, and the townsfolk… well, you’ll see.
I have already followed Honey Phillips, and now I have to figure out what order to TBR her books in.

The Dragon and the Beekeeper’s Widow is one of the wonderful stories included in the Moonbell Hollow series by various authors.
This story follows widow Ada Underhill and her six year old daughter Rosie who as she tells herself was the best thing ever to come out of her marriage.
After a stormy night they are cleaning up the next day when Ada finds a wounded stranger with leathery wings lying amongst her beehives and flowers, a dragon.
She manages to get him to her cottage with the help of a barrow and to get most of his injuries stitched up.
As Rosie begins to enjoy Sarkans presence her mother tries to keep her distance, and it doesn’t take long while his wing is healing for a little attraction to creep in between them.
I enjoyed their nicely written narrative that held some drama as a relationship is building, family dynamics swirl, and Rosie finds herself a new bestie in Sarkan.
It also doesn’t take long before the village finds out Ada is harboring a dragon, and there is someone out there who more than disapproves.
A wonderful read that leads into spicy dragon loving, emotion, overcoming the odds, and a story I will surely come back to again and again. HEA.

Review of advance copy
I love cozy, feel good stories and this one is one of the best. I fell in love with Moonbell Hollow.
I really liked Sarkan . I especially loved his patience. I loved that he listened to Ada, really listened. And when he could, he helped without being asked. I loved his slow realization of things he feared that never really came true. That Ada was not afraid of him from the start.
Ada has her problems mainly caused by her late husband William. I loved the clever ways she was able to outwit Edwin Harrow. That she was able to make the village see exactly what he was up to . That Sarkan was there to help but not interfere.
And Rosie, she was such a delight. I loved her questions. And she had plenty. After all she was six years old .
Ada had help along the way. Some I expected other were a surprise.
I loved that the story incorporated the life of a bee with the story, comparing their life with what the bees do. New discoveries were found, some prickly.
Slow burn to a steamy romance, the flow was excellent and as always the HEA was heartwarming.

If you're into cozy reads, like I am right now, then you're in for a treat! I have a weakness for dragon romance and Honey always does it right. This is the story of Ada, who's a widow, and her daughter Rosie, and some really sweet bees. They're the best side characters. ;) After a terrible storm Ada finds a dragon in her meadow. A broken dragon. She does a superb job of stitching him back together. And Sarkan is such a gentleman! He's maybe a little grumpy in the beginning, but he's resourceful and protective. I absolutely love how he is with Rosie. I also wanted to say that Ada is a widow, but the relationship was not good. Many can relate to what she went through. I got completely lost in the story. So if you're looking for the perfect cozy read with a side of spice, then you've found it. What are you waiting for? Grab a cup of coffee or tea, a warm blanket, and open this book!

I absolutely loved this magical, sweet romance. Ada is tough and resilient and has been hurt by her late husband to the point of silence. Sarkan falls from the sky one day and Ada has to help him. Her daughter Rosie is adorable and helps her as well. Ada keeps bees just like her father and his father before him. As Sarkan heals from his fall he and Ada and even Rosie get closer. He slowly starts becoming a part of this small family but there is disaster looming. Ada’s good for nothing dead husband has left her in debt to a man who is determined to take what he wants. This whole book is wonderful and I loved the writing style and the characters so much! Please read and enjoy!.

This cute buzzing 🐝🐝story is a quaint read. We have some unusual little critters, an amazing child, a woman who hasn't seen the value in herself....yet, and a very handsome dragon🐉 .
I love how Ada talks to the bees about her life, the good, bad, and not so nice. She is a strong vibrant woman who just needs a break in life. Now Sarkan is just the male to do that. These two amazing strangers work together seamlessly from the very beginning🐝🐝 .
A warm compassionate love story with all the good feels.
Incredible read as always Honey 💜.

Cute Story!
This is such a cute story! Rosie stole the show for me and I loved Ada and Sarkin too. Ada helps Sarkin, a dragon, who was injured after a storm and brought him home to heal. He never left. Ada's a widow and her husband had signed a contract with a manipulative loan shark type man for honey from the hives she takes care of but she didn't have enough that was needed to fill the contract after the storm damage. They have to figure out how to meet the terms of the contract or he will take the hives.
I really loved the sense of community and how they came together in a time of need. Really good story.

I think this is one of Honey Phillips’ softer books! The storyline was more intense, and the focus was definitely more on the plot than the heavy chemistry and romance. Don’t get me wrong, there was still plenty of chemistry, but this one felt more like a slow burn, with the story taking center stage.
I really enjoyed it, especially the storyline surrounding the dragon. I’d love to read more books like this from her! That’s not to say I don’t enjoy her other books (because I absolutely do!), but I tend to prefer her usual style of writing. This one was a nice change of pace, and I’m glad I read it!

When the Bees know….
Heartwarming, engaging, beautifully written story with spice about Ada, widowed beekeeper for Moonbell Hallow who comes across an injured Sarkan and cares for his wounds. While waiting for his wing to heal, he becomes enmeshed into Ada’s, her daughter Rosie, and the town’s life. When her livelihood is threatened, I love how her quietly supports her while allowing her to be the independent woman she has always been. Left my heart so full ❤️.

Moonbell Hollow is a fascinating place!
Ada is a sweetheart! I love her connection with the bees, the way she teaches her daughter about running an apiary. Rosie, her perspicacious little girl is adorable! As for the dragon, Sarkon, I couldn’t ask for a better hero. He’s perfect! I love how the story builds - it’s the little things that make this story so sweet, so satisfying. What they add up to is a delightful love story between three people (little girls count, too) who overcome adversity. A thoroughly interesting book that kept me intrigued throughout.

Sweetness is the best endearment ever.
This was such a sweet story that follow the line in the series in such a good way. In here we meet Ada, a widow beekeeper that finds a dragon hurt and helps him. Sarkan has been alone for a long time and tries to understand her kindness. I like how Ada after being made small, finds her voice and how Sarkan show vulnerability when he is afraid to show the all of him as a dragon, also the way the whole town is part of the story is wonderful.

Reading about Sarkan and Ada's love story was a pleasure. Initially I was a bit worried by the story's pace as things seemed to progress quickly, but I ended up greatly enjoying the book. I adore Rosie's character and I appreciated how the love story between the main characters developed. Overall, I enjoyed reading the book and I look forward to reading more from the Moonbell Hollow series.

I liked how Ada thought she was complete in herself and her daughter Rosie, but when faced with Sarkan and his presence in her life, she saw that she could be complete in having a third person. Some of Ada's quirks made me smile: her talking to the bees about everything is just one example. Sarkan may have started off a little grumpy and very suspicious, but he soon turned into a family oriented male.

After a fierce storm widow Ada finds a injured dragon on her farm. She takes him in and nurses him. She and her daughter Rosie keep bees for a living. As he heals Sarkan finds himself becoming more and more attached to Ada and her daughter. So when trouble comes he will do whatever he can to protect them. Sweet steamy story.

I was lost in the book straight away. It made me forget about life outside the book. I loved how Ada was weary about what Sarkan was going to demand from her. Yet Sarkan didn’t demand anything from her that required words he showed her with actions instead and for me that makes the story so much more meaningful then one that thinks words are what matter.

Oh my...I loved every page of this story. It was written in such a lilting way that it was almost hypnotic! Ava is a beautiful written character and her story captured my heart.
Highly recommended.

Cute story
Light-hearted story about an injured dragon, a widowed bee-keeper, her daughter, and a whole village and woods of characters. Slow burn romance with a definite HEA. Good lazy fall day read.

The dragon an the beekeepers widow
Great story just warmed me up. Grumpy wounded dragon is saved by the strong willed woman. They literally become the talk of the town. Excellent how every character comes together.

This series rocks and this read is no exception! Ada and her daughter are so sweet, and Sarkan - totally swoon worthy. A fantastic read of what is truly a family and a community.

This was such a wonderfully cozy fantasy romance! The main characters were both so sweet and I loved the small town/found family vibes of the town!

A sweet story about an injured dragon and the widow who cared for him. The town wasn't sure about him, but when the bad guy showed up, he protected her.
