I have read this series from the beginning and enjoyed the layers that are added to as the story goes on. Ellie’s personal story plays a large enough role, I’d recommend starting this series from the beginning to get the full picture.

Marie’s Thoughts
This series is just magical. I am very interested in gardening, natural wellness, and aromatherapy, so I am the target audience of this book for sure. Bailey Cattrell paints a wonderful picture of both the characters and the setting and sets up a world you can’t help but be invested in.
