The Apothecary's Garden

By Jeanette Lynes

Adult Fiction

Reviewed by Rebecca from the Manitou Branch

Set in the 1860's this beautiful story enchanted me from the very first pages.  Back in a time when flowers had special meanings, a bouquet could carry a message aside from it's beauty and fragrance.   Lynes writes with an open heart and it was such a joy to read.  I found myself thinking numerous times "What a WONDERFUL sentence!", reading it over a second time to soak it in.  If you are looking for a old fashioned romance, this charming story, peppered with magic, will not disappoint.  I highly recommend!
