Sydney Chen has a plan: take a three-month leave from her high-powered Boston law firm, help her stubborn grandmother recover from a hip injury, and get out of Maplewood before the dirt under her nails starts to feel too familiar.
She doesn't expect the family nursery to be falling apart.
She definitely doesn't expect Liv Mendez-local bookstore owner, community garden queen, and Sydney's former high school almost-stranger-to knock her off balance with a smile and dirt-stained hands.
Liv has roots here. Sydney has flight plans. But when late-night greenhouse repairs turn into stolen glances, lingering touches, and one unforgettable kiss under the grow lights, neither of them can pretend this is just about plants anymore.
Sometimes the thing you were never looking for is exactly what starts to bloom.

Petals [gxg]
Felicity 'Fliss' Farrah Fields embraced life. Truly, dearly loved life, but she loved her little florist shop, 'Petals', more than anything. Passed on to her when her parents retired, 'Petals' is everything Fliss could want from life. Except, perhaps, finding love. Finding women to sleep with, those wonderful ''Ms Right Now"'s, was remarkably easy. Finding that one, elusive, forever love was a little harder. Introduced to a new dating app, 'WaitDate', Fliss chooses temporary celibacy and enters into an anonymous relationship that has all the markings of something promising, but, coincidentally, she also meets Mia, a funny, vivacious girl Fliss chooses to remain only friends with, and the incredibly beautiful, billionaire corporate shark, Henrietta 'Harry' Marsh, who seems intent on stealing 'Petals' out from under Fliss. 'Petals' follows Fliss' attempts to remain frustratingly celibate in the face of so many gorgeous women and her fight to keep hold of something more important. Her little shop. And she wonders which, if any, of the girls she meets can become her forever love.Complete
Tis the Damn Season | ✓
After losing her job and her girlfriend, it's time for Annie Abraham to admit defeat and move back in with her parents. She has hardly been back to her tiny Montana hometown since the unforgettable summer before her senior year of college, when she agreed to babysit for Laurel Jacobs. Annie didn't expect to fall in love back then, and she never thought that after all this time she'd still be in love with the woman she walked away from when she was twenty-one. Laurel Jacobs has never gotten over Annie Abraham. It's been almost a decade since their fling and she can't move on. She has her kids to think about - at least, she tells herself that's why she hasn't been on a single date since Annie left. Her life was different back then: when they met, she was in the middle of a divorce with two young kids and no idea how the future looked. Now she owns a bookstore, her kids are growing up, and she's too busy for romance. Annie thought she would have more time to settle back into life in Deer Pines before being confronted by the love of her life, but she's not that lucky. After all this time, she's back for good and Laurel is the first person she sees, when she has just spent seventeen hours on a train and she's desperately in need of caffeine. It's the first time they've seen each other in eight years and it isn't long before all those old feelings come rushing back to the surface. They weren't buried as deep as they thought they were. A lot has changed since they last saw each other, more than either of them realize, but life hands out second chances for a reason. The first time they fell in love, the timing was wrong. Now's their chance to make it right. © Elle Carrigan 2023Complete![Second Chances [Lesbian]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/245483777-256-k116206.jpg)
Second Chances [Lesbian]
I let out a soft Mmm and instantly opened my eyes to see her looking at me with her head slightly tilted to the side and an amused smile playing on her lips. "Do you always have that reaction to things that taste good?" The possibility of a double meaning to her question wasn't lost on me and it surprised me, making me cough. I cleared my throat before answering. "Well, it depends.." I answered carefully. "On what?" She leaned forward slightly with what looked like an almost mischievous glint in her eyes. "On what I'm eating," I fired back sounding a lot more confident than I felt. Her eyebrows went up slightly. *** When Ren stumbles upon a job opportunity, she never thinks that it'll completely change her life. Meeting Cameron offers her something she thought she'd never get.. a second chance. Little does she know that it will also mean finally finding herself.

The one who knew her before the world got sharp. Bree tells herself it's nothing. Just a ghost of a friendship. A familiar face passing through. But something's shifting.
