Flowers for Marta - Paperback

by Jenn Braddock (Author)

Marta Dublin, a bookish, thirty-something, lives a contented life working in a small flower shop and living in the apartment above with her two cats. When the building is decimated by fire, she has no recourse but to seek help from her estranged sister and brother-in-law who, begrudgingly, invite her to stay with them in their luxury RV for their annual month-long vacation at Happy Endings Resort. Edwin Montrose, manager and caretaker of the resort, is instantly taken with the quiet Marta, although his extreme shyness gives nothing away. Watching from afar while Marta spends her days reading her books amongst his beloved trees, the nerdy but cute Edwin plucks up his courage and is surprised to learn just how much he has in common with her. As they get to know one another, he comes to realize that his feelings for her go far deeper than friendship. When tenants begin reporting thefts at the resort, Marta becomes Edwin's strongest ally as they sleuth to discover who is behind it all. What begins as a simple investigation turns into something far more sinister, causing Marta to question Edwin's integrity, and Edwin to fear losing the love of his life.
