After losing her parents, twenty-eight-year-old Bee Harland keeps her world small: work hard, stay focused, avoid heartbreak. But her trainee assistant role at Silverline Publishing's Cheshire branch begins to challenge all of that-especially when quiet, disciplined Thomas Knight, her boss, becomes the one person who makes her feel seen. What starts as admiration slowly turns into something deeper, something dangerous... something neither of them are sure they're ready for. When Bee reads a devastating feature about how pollution is destroying UK gardens, her parents' old property suddenly feels more precious than ever. The idea strikes her like sunlight: Bee's Garden-a campaign about environmental decline, restoration, and the personal roots she's still learning to protect. For the first time, she fights for her story. For her family's land. For herself. But as her project grows, so do the complications between her and Thomas. With boundaries blurring, expectations tightening, and the future uncertain, Bee has to decide what she's willing to risk-and what she's afraid to lose.
