About this book

When a talented landscaper named Tammy decides to build a chocolate garden for her charming new client—a songwriter and lawyer who's quickly becoming impossible to ignore—she thinks she's finally found solid ground after years of heartbreak. John Parker is everything she never knew she wanted, but trusting him means risking the hard-won independence she's fought so fiercely to protect for herself and her children. As their connection deepens among blooming flowers and chocolate-themed magic, life throws a curveball that tests whether their budding love is strong enough to weather real storms. This is a swoon-worthy second-chance-at-happiness story wrapped in the warmth of finding home in someone's arms.

“Create a playlist called The Chocolate Garden. Soft indie-pop and acoustic folk that captures slow-burn romance blooming in safe spaces. Think tender vocals, gentle guitar, and that sweet ache of letting someone in. Vulnerable yet hopeful—like watching walls come down petal by petal.”
