Publisher's Summary

When your parents name you and your three siblings after flowers, the world is stacked against you. At least, that’s how Aster Lavender feels. 

The youngest daughter, Aster always keeps her head down and lets her siblings stand in the spotlight. She sells her gourmet doughnuts from Hole in One, the small drive-through stand in sleepy Homer’s Bluff, Kansas, and daydreams about seeing the big beautiful world. Love is never going to happen, especially when the only other lesbians in town are already married to each other.

Beautiful Brynn Garrett arrives to fill in for Homer Bluff’s only veterinarian, and suddenly every pet in town is sick. Brynn’s older, smarter, and way out of Aster’s league. Plus, she’s only in town temporarily and definitely running from something. Aster didn’t plan for a connection so strong it knocks the wind right out of her, but Brynn makes her feel like anything but a wallflower.

SO SO GOOD

Melissa never disappoints and this story is one of her best 👌 👍 😍 in my humble opinion, I just really loved it. I have listened to so many books but only one other has brought a lump to my throat and tears 😢 so so great, I can't say enough about it and the narrator Lula Larkin brought it to life so much, she did an excellent job.

Stopped listening at end of Chapter 12

The is the second Melissa Brayden book in a row that I have stopped listening to before the end. I have had a hard life with lots of trauma and I can’t root for weak immature people.

*sigh*

So this is literally one of the first books by Melissa
that I was completely exasperated. Everything was great, but the romance in this book I could not stand Brin all this flip-flopping crap she didn't deserve Astor

Couldn't understand Brinn

The story moved well until Boston, then it made no sense to me. It was like fighting quicksand for 5 years then suddenly being teleported to Shangra La.

Lula Larkin was awesome as always.

Perfectly Sweet

This book is a perfectly sweet, slow-burn romance that made me laugh and then broke my heart only to pick the pieces right back up. I love it so much that it will be listened to again and again.

Beautiful story!

This was a beautifully written book as well as beautifully narrated.

I was totally engaged in the story and the angst between Aster and Brin’s insecurities and love for Aster.

Totally beautiful!

Relaxing like Lavender

Melissa Brayden is back to original stories. The best book since the Savvy series in my opinion and Lula Larkin is a delicious discovery, love her voice and narration. She makes a huge difference in this story. Can't wait for what this due will come up with next.

Too hard

The book was overall ok, but I almost couldn’t finish it. It took too long and the rollercoaster of emotions was hard to witness. I never thought those two would get together. Stressful.

Eh, good enough but....

I did like this book, but lately it seems all her books are so similar, none really stand out on their own. I recently read "How Sweet It Is" & "Strawberry Summer" & this one was right along the same lines. Very predictable.

A wild romance ride

One I didn’t always enjoy. Of course it got there in the end which made the twists and turns seem a little less bumpy in retrospect. The author takes us on a wild ride full of disappointment, despair and eventually happiness. A good book if you’re prepared for a roller coaster romance.
