Synopsis (Goodreads):
Twelve years ago, my first and only love left town and never came back.Thoughts on Run For Your Honey: We're back with the Blum sisters and it's Poppy's turn to face the Blum curse and find her special someone. Considering she's also fighting to drag her town back from the mess the previous mayor made of things and Duke happens to be running for mayor as well (after a loooonnnng absence) makes things a little complicated.
How dare he show up now, looking like that.
And he’s running against me for mayor.
It’s unfair, him standing there, too tall and handsome for his own good. It’s audacious that his clothes accentuate every lean, strong curve of his body. It’s universal BS that his smile makes my heart flipflop, and it’s patently un-freaking-believable that my body would betray me when he turns that gorgeous smile on me.
I’ll do whatever it takes to win, and he knows it.
But when he kisses me, all bets are off.
If I win, he leaves.
If he wins, I lose.
And either way, he breaks my heart.
No lie, Duke is...well, let's just say he rolls back into town with a very political mindset and it's not a good look on him. He's playing the part of the hometown boy returning to set things right, but he's really just using the mayoral position as a political stepping stone for bigger and better things. Which is not cool, Duke. Not cool at all. While he doesn't want to hurt Poppy to win the seat, he's also unwilling to step aside. And with the political pressure he has on him to secure the race, hurting Poppy looks like it's something he can't avoid.
Yeah, these two are a little complicated. Poppy's general loathing of Duke gives way to a grudging respect as she learns that some of the things she believed in the past about him weren't entirely true. Duke is torn between the career he's always dreamed of and the woman he's never stopped loving. He can't see a way he can have both and it's eating away at him. It takes a lot of soul searching and a very wise campaign manager to put things in perspective.
A whole lot of family, second chances, more than a few sexy encounters between our two leads, a messy mayoral race, a homecoming or two, and a curse that the Blum sisters are ready to put behind them. MAN, what a satisfying ending for this group.
