Autumn Dreams on Sunflower Street
After a painful divorce, Ellie Porter returns to the quiet village of Wisteria Hollow to clear out her late aunt's cottage and find a fresh start. There, she crosses paths with her childhood friend Finn Harman, a local gardener who has sworn off romance after a bitter betrayal of his own. As they work alongside each other through the autumn season, the old connection between them begins to spark, forcing both to decide if they can let go of past hurts for a second chance at love.
This book can be enjoyed as a standalone romance because it focuses on a self-contained love story between Ellie and Finn. However, because it is the twelfth installment in the Sunflower Street series, reading the earlier books in order will help you recognize recurring side characters and fully appreciate the community dynamics of Wisteria Hollow.
