New Beginnings at Wildflower Lock
by

About the book...
New starts and hopeful hearts...
At 25, Daisy May’s life is not living up to expectations. Her childhood dreams of being an artist feel as unachievable as a committed relationship or managing to save enough money for a deposit on a house. But a surprise inheritance could change all that.
After Daisy learns she’s now the new owner of a forty-foot narrow boat, she sets out for Wildflower Lock, where the fresh country breeze and the calm water is enough to assure her everything will be okay.
With the help of the ruggedly attractive, yet grumpy riverman, Theo, she begins to work on her new home, the September Rose. Can she breathe new life into the old boat and learn to navigate not only the canals themselves, but also the people who live there? Or will the whole venture pull her under?

This is a story of secrets, second chances, and new beginnings... so, a very apropos title, indeed!
Daisy has hit a stagnant point in her young life, but it's not for lack of trying... and then, instead of even keel sailing, it starts a downward spiral. A mysterious letter, and an unexpected inheritance open doors to the past that Daisy never knew needed opening, leading to hurt and feelings of betrayal, but also new levels of understanding, and love. Those connections broken by actions in the past, are rebuilt, newer, better, stronger then before, and although some are now built on memories shared by others versus time with flesh and blood, they are just as precious. Along the way, Daisy learns to open herself up again to new experiences, sharing her true self, friendship, and even the possibility of romance. Her encounters with Theo, the handyman/lineman next boat over, are equal parts hair raising and charming, because although they got off on the wrong foot (think a surprise encounter in the shower...of the wrong boat!), they find their sea legs eventually. 😉
A great pick for Contemporary Fiction fans, as well as Women's Fiction readers, and a lovely addition to your summer reading lists!
