The sweetest thing / by Summers, Sasha.;
A stolen family recipe has all the ingredients to turn a rivalry into romance... For Tansy Hill, nothing is sweeter than honey from her farm--except maybe revenge on the man who broke her heart and humiliated her all those years ago. Dane "The Viking" Knudson has been Tansy's rival since childhood, and though he's grown into a frustratingly handsome charmer, he's also standing between her and the best honey award at the Honey Bee Festival, which Honey Hill Farms desperately needs to stay afloat. Fanning the sparks that have forever flown between them, the competition is on. Sure, Tansy and Dane have plenty in common--more than they'll admit--but Dane's plans to expand Viking Honey are also on the line. When buried family secrets come to light, they'll have to decide whether taking a chance on each other is worth risking the happiness they've been longing for.

As the animals began to starve under the siege by advancing Iraqi army forces, Abu Laith, the "Father of Lions" and his protégées and family risked their lives to keep the animals alive. When liberation finally came, the city and the zoo were both on their last legs. It seemed as if all was lost, until a local former-government scientist, Hakam, saw a message on Facebook about a zoo nearby: a charity in Switzerland wanted to rescue the animals"--
