Synopsis

One of the Gardin women must navigate a season rich with unexpected challenges in the follow-up to The Gardins of Edin, a heartwarming story about new beginnings and what it takes to get there.

“A perfect read for those who love to read about romance and personal growth.”—Essence

Martha Gardin is a mess, and no one knows this better than the women in her family. Good-hearted but often misguided by distrust and insecurity, Martha is known for stirring up drama. That’s why Ruth, Naomi, and Mary are pleasantly surprised when Martha mellows out after she begins dating one of the most eligible bachelors in town.

Handsome, well-connected Oji Greenwald is everything Martha hoped to find in a man, and it’s only a matter of time before he pops the question. Rarely caught off guard, Martha is accustomed to getting her way. But when it appears she’s finally about to have the life she’s always wanted, a crisis in Oji’s family brings out Martha’s tendency to try to save the day her way, and the divide deepens between her and Oji’s already indifferent mother, Eve.

Confronted with these unforeseen challenges to her plans, Martha finds herself on a journey that forces her to fully acknowledge her previous mistakes and reconcile her past. But will it be enough to deliver her the future—and the love—her heart desires?

Rosey Lee did it again with a perfect sequel to The Gardins of Edin. The way she writes characters and the way they communicate is so refreshing.

Goodreads review by Robyn on January 26, 2025

Overall: 4 We back with the Edin sisters and get an update on where everyone is. Although they've made strides, somethings never change. They are still trying to hide the truth from each other instead of leaning on each other for the love and support they need. We continue the miscommunications, lies......more
