The Little Flower Shop by Lori Foster

 💖💖💖💖💖/5

The Little Flower Shop by Lori Foster, book two in the Cemetery, Indiana series, is a sweet story filled with the quirkiest characters, supporting friendships, matchmakers, and a mannequin named Kathleen. Emily Lucretia, the “flower lady,” is a successful business owner with her flower shop and Saul Culver, the town’s most eligible bachelor, is also doing well with his barbecue restaurant, Saul’s Pit Shop. Saul is a man, who knows what he wants, and he has long since set his sights on Emily; only he is ready to move that timeline up. On the one hand while Saul decides to make his feelings and desires known, Emily herself begins to realize that it is time to shake up her life a bit. She really hopes that she can break out of her comfort zone, and this definitely includes letting Saul into her life as more than a neighbor and a friend. With an entire town invested in Saul and Emily’s relationship, things are sure to get interesting. Together, Emily and Saul were adorable and obviously meant to be.

While Emily and Saul’s story is the main focus, and while touching, there are additional stories within. There is the love story of Emily’s elderly aunt and uncle, the friendship of Emily and her young employee Gentry, and the way that Betty Cemetery is blossoming. Great-granddaughter of the town’s founder, Betty had been a selfish old biddy in the previous book, but has been coming out of her shell, opening her heart and showing a wicked sense of humor.

 

Ms. Foster wrote a story that was wonderful, humorous, entertaining, romantic and totally captivating that should definitely not be missed. This tale with characters everyone can relate, was full of romance, humor, family, close friends, small-town life, interesting and entertaining characters, and so much more. I could not put this book down; needing to see Emily’s growth and Saul’s love. I highly recommend The Little Flower Shop to other readers and can’t wait to see whose story will be next in the town of Cemetery

 

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this story.
