There's a new shop on Seattle's Blossom Street—a flower store called Susannah's Garden, right next
door to A Good Yarn. Susannah Nelson, the owner,
has just hired a young widow named Colette Blake.
A couple of months earlier, Colette had abruptly
quit her previous job—after a brief affair with her
boss. To her dismay, he's suddenly begun placing
weekly orders for flower arrangements!



Susannah and Colette both join Lydia Goetz's new
knitting class. Lydia's previous classes have forged
lasting friendships, and this one is no exception.
But Lydia and her sister, Margaret, have worries
of their own. Margaret's daughter, Julia, has been
the victim of a random carjacking, and the entire
family is thrown into emotional chaos.



Then there's Alix Townsend. Her wedding to
Jordan Turner is only months away—but she's
not sure she can go through with it. Her love for
Jordan isn't in question; what she can't handle
is the whole wedding extravaganza engineered
by her mentor, Jacqueline, with the enthusiastic
cooperation of her future mother-in-law. A
reception at the country club and hundreds of
guests she's never even met—it's just not Alix.



Like everyone else in Lydia's knitting class, Alix
knows there's a solution to every problem…and
that another woman can usually help you find it!
