The Language of Flowers

Author: Vanessa Diffenbaugh

Haunting and beautiful, “The Language of Flowers” weaves a poignant tale of love, loss, and redemption. Victoria, a young woman scarred by a tumultuous childhood in foster care, finds solace in the Victorian language of flowers. As she navigates adulthood, her gift for communicating through blooms opens unexpected doors. Diffenbaugh’s prose is as delicate and intricate as the floral messages her protagonist crafts, creating a story that lingers long after the final page. A deeply moving exploration of human connection and the power of second chances.

Perhaps the unattached, the unwanted, the unloved, could grow to give love as lushly as anyone else.
