Mara Bennett has spent years building a life where everything can be argued, negotiated, and won. But when her mother dies and leaves behind a crumbling greenhouse in the small town Mara swore she'd never return to, the one thing she can't outsmart is her own heart. The plan is simple: settle the will, sell the property, and get back to the city. The reality is Hazel-a brilliant, sharp-tongued teenager with more claim to the greenhouse than Mara ever expected. And Eli-the quiet widower whose grief runs as deep as the soil he tends, and whose steady presence shakes the walls Mara has built around herself. As long-buried secrets surface and impossible choices take root, Mara is forced to confront the question she's spent her whole life avoiding: What if the future she's been chasing isn't the one she truly wants? Heartbreaking and hopeful in equal measure, Petals of Tomorrow is a story of love that refuses to be silenced, the promises we inherit, and the risks we take to bloom where we're broken.
