The Beekeeper's Daughter by Santa Montefiore

This was a wonderful story about love, loss and finding your way.  The story bounces between Grace and her daughter Trixie.  They both fall in love with men they cannot have because of class and duty.  They both try to move on and make things work, but they pay a price of sadness.  Near the end when everyone learns the truth about their history they are given a new lease on life and live life to the fullest, cherishing every moment.  The ending was a little bit of a let down, but the take away is to talk with those you love, don't push them aside and assume you know why they are the way they are.  Life is a wonderful thing that should be embraced, not full of regrets.
