What an fun and enjoyable story. Great if you are looking for a quick feel-good romance in a beautiful setting.
Thank you Maryanne Ross, The Wild Rose Press and NetGalley for allowing me an advance copy for my honest feedback.

A charming and delightful romantic novella. A quick read that is full of love, angst, and plants. A little glimpse of Australia. Thanks to the publisher for providing a copy via NetGalley.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and I am voluntarily reviewing it.

This was a sweet, clean second chance at love romance. It takes place in Australia so some of the terms were a little different for me but I enjoy reading and learning new things from different places. There were some places that I had to read several times to figure out if it was those differences or just needed additional editing.

This was just from Lilac Loveday POV. It would have been nice to have Harris (Harry) MacAulay as well. There were some scenes that would have helped having his POV. Like when he rushes from the cafe.

Lilac (what a great name!) is a landscape designer. She struggled to raise her two children after her husband's death. She fought long and hard to be the woman that she is. But her only wish, GRANDKIDS!!!! She goes about plotting to get her daughter with some single young men. In her first attempt, she fails miserably but she meets a gentleman just a few years older than herself.

Harry is an owner of a very prestigious construction company. He doesn't come off as wealthy but very down to earth. After a second fail attempt with Harry witnessing it again, he suggest that they plot the "Operation Grandchild" together.

The plot was a good one but it could have used a little bit of more polish. There were times when I was confused as to what was going on. The foundation was a good one but it needs a bit more polish. I can see the author has potential.
