BLURB:
In
this beautiful and moving story of love, growth, and redemption among the
stunning red rocks of Sedona, Arizona, Sydney—a teenaged Army orphan—discovers
that love knows no bounds and life has many twists and turns of fate. After she
is forced to move in with her late mother’s sister Blanche and Blanche’s
abusive alcoholic husband Dean, Sidney finds purpose and friendship in Lexy,
the daughter of Max Heller the City’s most prominent widower and business
magnate. Unknowingly, the girls’ antics awaken Blanche’s lost and suppressed
passions and stirs Max’s long-thwarted drive to build a loving and complete
family. What emerges is the wonderfully successful Epicurian Café, the
brainchild of Blanche and Sydney actively encouraged by Max and Lexy. The Café
quickly becomes a center of the community, the start of a new life for Blanche
and Sydney, and a chance for Max and Lexy to discover true love and the meaning
of commitment. An emotional roller-coaster with its exciting twists and turns,
Wildflower is an exhilarating and satisfying read

EXCERPT:
“I must tell you something. I usually don’t do this.”
Do what, Blanche?”
“Drink wine under the stars by a creek with a man who I have
just met.”
“But that’s part of what makes life worth living.”
Before Blanche could reply, Annette rounded the corner and
joined them.
“There you are; I’ve been looking for the two of you
everywhere.” Annette stopped to catch her breath. “What is it?” Blanche asked.
“Blanche, I hate to do this to you, but I need to go home
now. Jordan called to say his school project requires him to light a fire, and
I don’t want him playing with a flame when I’m not home.”
“I can certainly understand that.” Blanche looked at her
friend and back to Max, then she stood up. Max didn’t want Blanche to go, but
realized they had to leave.”
“Well, it was nice to meet you, Max. Goodbye,” she said.
“Good night,” Annette told Max.
For the first time in his life he was not sure what to say.
Blanche and Annette started to walk away.
Annette went on about her son.
“Blanche, wait! If you want to stay longer I can drive you
home, if you’d like,” Max said standing up from the table and walking over to
them.
Blanche stopped walking and turned around to face Max. He
could tell she was thinking about it.
“I would like that. Annette, do you mind?” Blanche asked
her.
