About this listen
Generations of Waverleys tended this garden. Their history was in the soil. But so were their futures.
A successful caterer, Claire Waverley prepares dishes made with her mystical plants - from the nasturtiums that aid in keeping secrets and the pansies that make children thoughtful, to the snapdragons intended to discourage the attentions of her amorous neighbor.
Meanwhile, her elderly cousin, Evanelle, is known for distributing unexpected gifts whose uses become uncannily clear. They are the last of the Waverleys - except for Claire's rebellious sister, Sydney, who fled Bascom the moment she could, abandoning Claire, as their own mother had years before.
When Sydney suddenly returns home with a young daughter of her own, Claire's quiet life is turned upside down - along with the protective boundary she has so carefully constructed around her heart. Together again in the house they grew up in, Sydney takes stock of all she left behind, as Claire struggles to heal the wounds of the past. And soon the sisters realize they must deal with their common legacy - if they are ever to feel at home in Bascom - or with each other.

"Spellbindingly charming, Allen's impressively accomplished debut novel will bewitch fans of Alice Hoffman and Laura Esquivel." ( Booklist)

One of my favorite books
This is one of my favorite books. I've read it many times over. It's like comfort food. Having said that the narrator for this audio was disappointing. Her range is limited. It's too bed they didnt have the same narrator as The Girl Who Chanced the moon because she was outstanding.

Magical family and surprise romance
I LOVED the magical element to this book, but otherwise this genre really isn’t my usual. Well written and cute story overall though :) great performance by the reader as well, but the audio sometimes faded away at the end of a sentence and was so quiet I couldn’t hear the final word. Happened all the way through the book, not sure if that was an issue with my download/file, my phone in some way, or the recording itself.
Cute book though with some memorable characters and steamy moments!

Nice series of magic and drama/mysteries
I really enjoyed this series and it was a nice surprise. It was hard to identify that I started with the second book instead of the first one. but I still enjoyed it very much.
