I’ve read a lot of Valerie Comer’s books, and so far, I haven’t found one I haven’t liked. Sprouts of Love touched me because it’s about service—giving of time and resources to someone who needs a little help. In this story, Ben and Evelyn seem to be on opposite sides of an issue, but once they sit down and figure out a plan, things fall into place. Maisie is a hoot, and I’m sure you’ll grow to love her vivacious personality as much as I did. This is book 2 of the series Garden Grown Romance but is a stand-alone. I highly recommend this book (and her others as well).

Sprouts of Love

An overzealous community garden manager delivers more than the food bank manager can handle. Can love sprout amid the tsunami of vegetables?

Single mom Evelyn Felton takes on another part-time job managing a greenhouse and garden project for Grace Fellowship. Formerly homeless, she’s thrilled to offer truckloads of fresh produce to the Arcadia Valley food bank.

If only Ben Kujak weren’t running Corinna’s Cupboard singlehandedly, he’d be delighted to be on the receiving end. But Evelyn and her dynamo daughter, Maisie, won’t take no for an answer, even if it means restructuring Ben’s charity.

Soon Ben finds himself wishing they’d transform his personal life, too, but can true love sprout when their pasts collide with the present?
