A poetry book, a magic garden, and a carefully buried secret that can unravel it all...
Gwyneth O’Shaughnessy lives a quiet existence in a sleepy Maine town. Outside her work at the local historical society, she confines herself to her cozy Victorian home, convincing herself she's more satisfied that way. But when Liam Baxter moves into the house next door, Gwyneth’s interest is piqued. From the safety of her window, she watches as he performs strange rituals in his winter garden, planting unusual flowers and reciting poetry during midnight snowfalls.
After a chance meeting, their friendship blossoms, and Liam invites her to share the secrets of his garden. They bond over mythology and magic, and Gwyneth feels more special than she has in decades. The more time they spend together, the more deeply she feels for the man who’s helped her bloom again.
But Gwyneth has more secrets than those in Liam’s garden. Long ago, Gwyneth made a mistake that she’s been hiding ever since, one that now threatens to rip open the fabric of her life. Hanging in the balance is the promise of newfound happiness with Liam—not to mention her relationship with her carefree adult daughter. As her past rises from its ashes, her dreams slip from her grasp—unless she comes to terms with her failings and heartaches, the deepest secrets of all.
