About this listen

The Weight of Water Lilies is a moving small-town women's fiction novel about grief, healing, and second chances.

When trauma therapist Leona Dorsey returns to the Southern mountain town of Halcyon Lake, she plans to stay only long enough to handle her grandmother’s estate.

But the late Mama Jo has other plans.

The once-beautiful Waterlily Grove garden has fallen into ruin, and with it, the community it once nurtured. In restoring the garden, Leona must face her family's scandalous legacy, old wounds, and an unexpected reunion with Jude Merrick, the town’s newspaper editor.

Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Kate Morton, and Ann Napolitano, The Weight of Water Lilies is a deeply atmospheric, emotionally resonant novel about intergenerational trauma, community, and the redemptive power of nature.

As secrets surface and old truths unravel, Leona is drawn into a deeper reckoning — one that asks whether healing the land might help heal the heart.
