Love in Bloom by Sheila Roberts
This tale of small-town life and love is a perfect end-of-summer read – a light but satisfying re-telling of Cyrano de Bergerac.
Since her mastectomy at 30, Hope Walker has fallen into the trap of believing no one could possibly be interested in her romantically. Her flower store is prospering, due in no small part to her gift for choosing flowers and notes to go with them that suit the recipients particularly well. The handsome guy in the store buying flowers for his mom has eyes only for Hope’s beautiful sister Bobbi, but what really snags his interest is the poem Bobbi pretends she wrote to accompany the bouquet. As Hope and Bobbi get drawn ever deeper into the charade, Hope also makes new friends at the community garden plot – an elderly woman who has moved in with her daughter and a young mother struggling with her jobless husband’s depression.
