Sometimes a shattered dream leads to
an amazing journey.
At twenty-six, apprentice baker Mia
West has her entire life planned out: a Craftsman cottage in Seattle, a job
baking at The Butter Emporium, and her first love—her boyfriend, Ethan—by her
side. But when Ethan declares he “needs some space,” Mia’s carefully
planned future crumbles.
Feeling adrift, Mia joins her
vivacious housemate Rosie on a humanitarian trip around the world funded by a
reclusive billionaire. Along with a famous grunge rock star, a Rwandan
immigrant, and an unsettlingly attractive Hawaiian urban farmer named Kai, Mia
and Rosie embark on the adventure of a lifetime.
From the slums of Mumbai to a
Hungarian border camp during the refugee crisis, Mia’s heart is challenged and
changed in astonishing ways—ways she never could have imagined. As she grapples
with how to make a difference in a complicated world, Mia realizes she must
choose between the life she thought she wanted and the life unfolding before
her.
In a romantic adventure across the
globe, The Enlightenment of Bees beautifully explores what it
means to find the sweet spot in life where our greatest passions meet the
world’s greatest need.

Thanks for highlighting The Enlightenment of Bees! It's a story close to my heart with lots of autobiographical elements. I was broken up with, chased by a shark, volunteered as an aid worker at the Roszke refugee camp, and the character of Nana Alice is based on my own 92 year old Grandma Sally's late in life romance!
