There's a new shop on Seattle's Blossom Street--a flower store called
Susannah's Garden, right next door to A Good Yarn. Susannah Nelson, the
owner, has just hired a young widow named Colette Blake. A couple of
months earlier, Colette had abruptly quit her previous job--after a
brief affair with her boss. To her dismay, he's suddenly begun placing
weekly orders for flower arrangements!
Susannah and Colette both join Lydia Goetz's new knitting class. Lydia's
previous classes have forged lasting friendships, and this one is no
exception. But Lydia and her sister, Margaret, have worries of their
own. Margaret's daughter, Julia, has been the victim of a random
carjacking, and the entire family is thrown into emotional chaos.
Then there's Alix Townsend. Her wedding to Jordan Turner is only months
away--but she's not sure she can go through with it. Her love for Jordan
isn't in question; what she can't handle is the whole wedding
extravaganza engineered by her mentor, Jacqueline, with the enthusiastic
cooperation of her future mother-in-law. A reception at the country club
and hundreds of guests she's never even met--it's just not Alix.
Like everyone else in Lydia's knitting class, Alix knows there's a
solution to every problem...and that another woman can usually help you
find it!
