The Garden of Fragile Souls
Six months ago, professional makeup artist Willow was engaged to the adventurous, billionaire Derek. They planned to live life to the fullest, and she looked forward to raising a horde of children.
​
Now, she’s sleeping on her brother’s couch and has unrelenting nightmares. She dreams of finding happiness in a tiny house and growing vegetables on a few acres of land.
Four years ago, bestselling author Jack Wilden was raising a son with his wife, the award-winning actress Fiona Thorn. They were everyone’s favorite power couple, and their future was bright.
​
Now, he’s an ill-tempered recluse, living far from the city and its cruel inhabitants. All he wants is to write books in his quiet retreat. But when a hippie parks her ugly yellow bus across the creek from his sanctuary and fills his days with endless construction noise, he’s determined to chase her off his mountain.
In a changing climate and an uncertain future, can two people with nothing in common help each other heal?
​
And . . . can they learn to love again?

The author has so perfectly captured the struggles of adult women rarely discussed in society. Our ex-whatevers, complex mother-daughter relationships, and the importance of orgasms. You may see something of yourself in Nora. You will definitely understand women and relationships better.
And the story is not one of those grab your ankles for everyone in your life stories. A strong female character with a spine is a nice change from trendy fiction these days. This book has staying power.
