A Garden for Ghosts

An inheritance. A garden left to grow wild. A mystery waiting to bloom. Sarah Chen inherits three acres of overgrown beauty she never knew existed-a farmhouse, an abandoned property, and a secret greenhouse that's been carefully maintained for seventeen years by a man she's never met. But the real inheritance isn't the land. It's the journals. The seeds. The story of a woman who chose to disappear rather than lose herself.
When Sarah arrives at the property running from her own failed engagement and shattered dreams, she expects to make a quick decision: sell to developers or maintain the chaos. Instead, she discovers her grandmother's journals-entries that document a marriage becoming a prison and a garden becoming salvation. Margaret left everything behind in 1987, but she left instructions for someone to keep the greenhouse alive, as if she always knew that someday, someone would need this place.
That someone is Sarah. As she begins to untangle the overgrown garden and uncover her grandmother's carefully preserved seeds, Sarah meets Marcus-the quiet caretaker who's spent forty years maintaining a greenhouse for a woman he loved from a distance. Together, they begin to understand that gardens aren't just about flowers. They're about growth. They're about choosing yourself. They're about the courage to tend to something beautiful even when everything else is falling apart.
A sweeping, intimate exploration of inheritance, healing, and the transformative power of learning to grow-both gardens and yourself. Perfect for readers who believe in second chances, quiet love stories built on shared purpose, and the magic that happens when you stop running from your past and start tending to your future.
