Story
The view across the valley takes her breath away; everywhere she looks tiny patches of colour – ochre, chestnut, lime and purple. The farmhouse behind her glows pink in the morning sun. Finally, Flora has the home of her dreams... but is she about to lose it? Free-spirited Flora Dunbar is heartbroken at the news that she must close down her beloved little flower shop on the high street. As she packs away her pretty pots and vases and locks the door for the very last time, the only spark of hope is an offer from Ned.

Disappointing ...
I dont usually enjoy books where chapters switch between characters & narrators, its it's difficult to follow. This unfortunately did nothing to change my mind. Gave the performance 3 stars for Henrietta's small contribution ... Zero for Susan, she was breathy and just plain irritating.

An enjoyable sequel to "Letting in Light".
Thank you Emma for continuing the tale of Will and Elly's life at Rowen Hill. This had been a whirlwind story with much intrigue and a beautiful ending.
