About this listen
Sisters Jenna and Rosie bring out the worst in each other. So they mostly keep their distance.
But Jenna has suddenly found herself with no job, no boyfriend, nowhere to live - and no idea what to do next. Is life really supposed to be this difficult? Turning up on Rosie's doorstep is the last thing she wants to do, but it feels like her only option.
Rosie misses her old life, the one filled with fun and travel and excitement. These days she barely has the energy for her cute friend with benefits, let alone to take care of her little sister. Why doesn't she ever get to put herself first?
Somehow the sisters find themselves roped into a community project, forced to work together. As the group brings an overgrown garden back to life, curious - maybe even magical - things begin to happen. New friendships blossom and old wounds start to heal. But will Jenna and Rosie finally find their way back to happiness, and each other?

Very good - not what I expected
The book was well written and interesting. I had been expecting a very “light and fluffy” book but this was deeper and more interesting.

Indescribably Beautiful
Such a beautiful story with so many meaningful character progressions. Couldn't see any twists coming and found myself getting lost in the beauty of how details were described and communicated. It is one of those books that fill your chest with a rainbow of emotions in the most beautiful way.
Thank you Melanie for bringing this to life.
