Review of The Honeycrisp Orchard Inn
Release Date: September 9, 2025 by Avon Books. Thanks to the publisher for the advance review copy.
After a career setback and a break-up, Ellie heads home to her family’s charming inn on Long Island, New York. She’s surprised to find out that the inn is struggling a little bit. In addition, her childhood friend Aidan has become pretty attractive.
Ellie stays to pitch in and plan an event that she hopes will put the inn back on the social map, juggles her attraction to Aidan, and tries to figure out how to get her career back on track.
As I discuss in the post on New Cozy Fall Romance, The Honeycrisp Orchard in has a great balance of romance, family, fall festivities, and whimsical little touches.
It’s a fall rom com that every cozy fall romance lover should have on their TBR.
The HOneycrisp orchard inn has:
- A slightly spicy “my old friend got hot
- Forced proximity, as Aidan and Ellie have to share a two bedroom flat
- A charming inn and an orchard
- Adorable pets: Pumpkin the PJ-wearing pug and Argos, a yellow lab
- I feel a series coming with Aidan’s sister Charlotte and Ellie’s friend Maria.
