Two broken hearts, one small town, and the secret language of flowers... Ellie always falls for the wrong man. After her latest disastrous relationship, she needs a new start, a clean slate, and some time to figure out who she is and what she actually wants. So the opportunity to open her own florist shop in the small town of Alpine Ridge couldn't be more timely – or more perfect. Sam Mathews understands bad relationships – he's only ever had one, and that was enough. Now he keeps to himself, throwing his efforts into the family vineyard and his greenhouse hobby, where it's quiet and calm and he can nurture beauty with his own two hands. When Ellie arrives in town and discovers Sam's backyard nursery, a shared professional interest soon blossoms into something that feels very personal. But Ellie needs time to rediscover herself, and Sam has never regained his confidence. When they are both tied so strongly to the past, could there be a chance for a future?

Jacquie lives in Central Queensland, Australia, where it's always hot and humidity constantly coats the skin, summer or winter. ​ After a decade long profession as an accountant, she now spends her time wrapped up in her imagination, creating characters, exploring alternative realities, and falling in love with a host of mouth-watering heroes who occupy her mind at first, then eventually her books. Jacquie has a business degree, has studied post-graduate writing, editing and publishing at The University of Queensland and earned a Master of Letters from Central Queensland University. But all that means is that she's super-dedicated to writing the best books she can for readers to enjoy. So far, she has over a million words published, and the word-count is climbing. Check out her many published novels, novellas and short stories that will hit you in the heart with deep emotion, love, and 'no ordinary' storylines.
