When Wildflowers Bloom

Birdie Rose Hawkins carries the same genetic mutation that killed both her mother and grandmother. As she approaches her thirty-seventh birthday, she believes this year will be her last. Accustomed to living by lists, rules, and routines in isolation, she breaks her pattern by having a one-night stand with a stranger named Bo. When Bo unexpectedly returns to her life with his own difficulties, he offers friendship. Through him and a few others in her life, Birdie learns to face things that frighten her rather than retreat into safety. As their time together deepens, the connection from their first encounter becomes impossible to ignore. When a secret emerges and jeopardizes what they've built, Birdie must choose between continuing to survive as she always has or embracing the uncertainty that comes with truly living. Note: This book contains difficult themes of cancer and death, as well as explicit language and romance scenes.
