Forever in Flowers

After being burned by love, Loretta Vogel believes romance is only for other people. That won’t keep the septuagenarian from turning her rustic barn into the wedding venue of her florist friends’ dreams. But when her new business venture proves more than she bargained for, she reluctantly accepts the help of an annoyingly energetic wedding planner to bring her idea to life.

Joyce Grant wouldn’t miss the opportunity to plan one last wedding for her old friend in Juniper Creek. Besides, wedding preparations are the perfect distraction from the changes threatening to break up her queerplatonic family. And assisting the enigmatic venue host with her barn renovation project is the icing on a delicious, sunshiny wedding cake.

When a fixture-shopping road trip lands Loretta and Joyce in a one-bed B&B room, they discover more in common than they realized. But as Joyce’s departure draws closer, can the hobby farmer and the wedding planner move beyond a summer romance and find lasting happiness together?

Forever in Flowers is the fourth standalone volume in the queer contemporary small-town Juniper Creek Golden Years series. If you like grumpy-sunshine dynamics, cozy small towns, and low-angst love stories with characters you’ll want to make friends with, you’ll love this charming series wrap-up.
