Cultivating the Garden We Share

To everyone who knows her, Elizabeth or as everyone calls her, "Lizzy" or "Liz" is a force of nature. She is bright, confident, and always ready with a laugh. But behind the bubbly exterior lies a quiet, deep insecurity about her body and her worthiness of true love a secret she guards with a high, thorny wall.

Then there is Johnny. He's the man next door, Lizzy's brothers best friend, and a constant, comforting presence in their lives. They've spent years sharing a property line and a rundown, neglected garden plot that sits between their houses. But lately, the way he looks at her has shifted. He doesn't just see the confident mask she wears for the world; he sees her. And he doesn't fully know why... but he wants in.

The two of them could not be MORE different from one another. But will that bring them closer or tear them apart... Or? A little of both?

When a joint neighborhood project forces them to finally restore the shared garden together, the physical walls between their houses and their hearts begin to crumble.
