Reviews
The first of Nora Roberts’ “In the garden “ trilogy which I think is one of the best series she has written. This is Stella’s story and how she overcomes tragedy to find happiness with her complete opposite. The characters in the series are all introduced and the web of their lives is being spun including Amelia the family ghost. It is a great series and those who read BLUE DAHLIA have a real treat in store in the other two books. It is well worth the time to read all of them.
This installment of the In The Garden trilogy is to me the weakest of the three, but I do recommend to read this one and advance to the next two installments. The payoff is worth it.
I tried this one a couple of times and didn't think I could get into it. A coworker kept telling me that the series was really good, so I tried it again. I wasn't disappointed. Good, intriguing story. Looking forward to the next installment.
This was such a great start to the series. I love stories that have a ghost in them. I like the teeny feeling of being spooked. I want to start planting flowers now.
I am not normally a big romance fiction fan - but this book really drew me in. Maybe because I love to garden. I found the characters sympathtic and am anxiously waiting for the other two books to arrive.
