Another fantastic read from Sally Page!

Emma is living in the aftermath of her husband’s sudden death and the revelation of some painful secrets. In attempt to rebuild her life she changes career to train as a florist at a local garden centre where she thrives amongst the flowers and is reminded of happy times gardening with her late father.

Prompted by a talk given by garden centre owner about the Titanic, Emma begins to research the floristry on the Titanic and tries to discover just who was responsible for the flowers at sea. This in turn tells the story of Violet, a stewardess but also a lover of flowers.

A beautiful story of love, loss and friendship, all wrapped up in a wonderful fragrant bouquet.
