Wow this book hit close to home after the recent Texas floods! But it hit close to home in the way it reminded me of how Houston rebuilt after Harvey in a way that brought community together, as I know central Texas will too.

One of my favorite places in Houston is Mercer Botanical Gardens and it was so special to read a book inspired by it as a gardener and librarian fell in love. Melanie captured the essence of why I love romance books even if sometimes I think Tansy and Jack just needed to get out of their own way. If you're looking for a happy and heartwarming romance, this one will have you in your feels.
