In the second novel in the Wildflower House series, the author of The
Memory of Butterflies reminds us that to achieve our dreams, we must
first open our hearts.
Kara Hart suffered overwhelming heartache when she lost her mother and
husband, and her father's sudden death might be the blow that breaks
her--unless she turns her grief into purpose. She'll finish renovating
his Victorian mansion in rural Virginia, but with her own twist. She'll
turn the old house into a creative retreat for artists and writers.
Kara has never tackled a project this big alone, and she's not ready to
open her heart to others for help. But the locals open their hearts to
her--including two who have the potential to be more than friends. She
tells herself she doesn't need romance or distractions, but maybe that's
exactly what she needs. When her former best friend reenters Kara's
life, it could be the distraction that finally destroys her--or heals
her.
The tragedies in Kara's life have damaged her self-confidence, but she
presses forward, gradually lowering her protective walls and allowing
others in little by little. Will bringing Wildflower House back to life
and freeing her own creative spirit also allow her to open her heart to
hope and happiness--and maybe even love?
