In The Garden

Blue Dahlia opens the In the Garden trilogy as recently widowed Stella Rothchild arrives at Harper House with her two young sons, taking a job managing Roz Harper's flourishing nursery and a room in the storied mansion.

Clashing constantly with the rugged landscaper Logan Kitridge — brash and difficult, but undeniably honest — Stella must decide whether her careful, sensible heart can afford to fall again. All the while, the Harper Bride walks the halls at night, her lullabies edged with a sorrow that hints at darker secrets waiting to surface.

Strong-willed nursery owner Rosalind Harper has weathered life's storms, building a thriving business and a supportive sanctuary at historic Harper House. But when she hires Dr. Mitchell Carnegie to investigate the identity of the mansion's resident ghost, their search unearths buried family secrets. As their intense research brings them closer, Roz finds herself unexpectedly falling for the intriguing scholar. In Black Rose, passion blooms alongside a chilling mystery.

Red Lily brings the In the Garden trilogy to its emotional and supernatural conclusion as young single mother Hayley Phillips finds herself falling for Harper Ashby — Roz's son and her closest friend's child.

As Hayley and Harper's relationship moves from friendship toward something neither can deny, the Harper Bride grows dangerously possessive, her haunting shading into something that threatens the whole household. Unraveling the ghost's true identity — and breaking her grip — will require the full force of the found family that three books have been building.
