Summary

Every bouquet tells a story. And every story begins at Blossom & Grow, a tiny, jewel-like flower shop in the heart of Dublin. Here, Lara works her magic: translating feelings into flower arrangements that change hearts and lives.

But what about her own heart? Has she really healed since she lost her chance to be a mother? What will happen when her own story takes a sudden turn?

Beautifully written gentle story.

Listened to this novel in one sitting. Loved it. Will be buying all her audio books after this one.

A lot more emotional than expected.

Read another book by same author and really enjoyed it. Figured to repeat the experience with this one. Have to say that it was kind of depressing as it dealt with a LOT of heart-breaking situations that I wasn’t overly comfortable wading through. But out of respect for the author I listened to the end….which was a relief, even though it was very abrupt.

Over all, it was well written and well narrated. But not sure I want to try another by the author in case it seems like light reading and sucks you into a trauma.

exciting!!

I loved listening to the story.

The author blended flashbacks, dreams, hallucinations, thoughts and the present so well that it seemed I was in each moment.
Her choice of words were so picturesque and yet real.
As a florist myself I was reliving every customer encounter as if they were happening in my shop.

The narrator was like a magnet. A voice you cant stop listening to. interestingly by tge end of the story I wanted to hear more. Is there a part 2 please? I want to know how Phil recovered after the operation? did he and Katie have babies? did Mia and Rowan marry? and was Lara really pregnant? and did Ben ever come back especially to see baby Lilly ?

my questions are many if I had to pick each chapter.

why did the author use first person narrative only when she introduced Katie?
