For fans of Beth O'Leary and Josie Silver, a heartwarming and romantic debut told over the course of one year in monthly weekend installments, about found family, new love, and the magic of London.

Flowers have always been the best communicators. They've mastered falling over one another in the perfect way to announce exactly what they need: sunlight, water, space. They do not rush. They do not bloom before their time. They do not take without giving in return...

They are nothing like the rest of London.

Between trying to keep her north London flower shop, The Lotus, afloat and falling for a flatmate, Lucy Bernstein is going to have to rethink everything she knows about "creative arrangements."

Unwillingly becoming one of eight flatmates in a quirky warehouse conversion would have been difficult enough without any romantic entanglements, but when Lucy lays eyes on Henry Baker, the traveling photographer who only comes home twelve weekends a year, she knows her hands will be full with more than just posies. As each weekend progresses, Lucy also finds herself unexpectedly falling for all her new flatmates, along with this bustling but ultimately sweeter home.

Can Lucy learn from the flowers she tends to and bravely reach for all that she needs to bloom?

      This wooden contemporary from first-timer Paige introduces Lucy, an American who moved to London for university and never left. Working for a florist pays poorly, so when her housing falls through, her friend Raja persuades Lucy to join her in a cheap warehouse conversion as one of eight flatmates. For the most part, these young people get along well; on their monthly “Warehouse Weekend,” they socialize as a group and take turns organizing the fun. Solitary Lucy appreciates the distractions from worrying about the finances of the florist shop and enjoys the company of her new flatmates. She especially lusts for Henry, a handsome photographer who spends most of his time traveling but ogles Lucy right back when he’s home. Lucy is unwilling to have what’s effectively a long-distance relationship, however, and their protracted will-they-won’t-they reveals Henry’s immaturity, which will prevent readers from really rooting for the couple’s success. The lighthearted banter among the cast of 20-somethings adds levity, but readers hoping for a true love story should look elsewhere. Agent: Hannah Todd, Madeleine Milburn Agency.
