More Than Buds

If there’s one thing Iris Parker knows for certain, it’s that she’s always been in love with love— weddings, romantic comedies, the love stories of those around her, and above all, her own happily ever after. So much so that when the opportunity to help plan a real life wedding is thrown in her lap, she jumps at the chance. After a run-in with James, the son of the florist, she can’t quite seem to ignore the magnetic pull between them. But when he leaves to go home to England the next day, she’s heartbroken, thinking she’ll never see him again.

Years later, Iris arrives in London, ready for her full semester of studying abroad. But just as she finds herself starting to fall for the dashing, charming Ethan, fate steps in. A chance encounter with James disrupts Iris’s perfect life, bringing a fresh bundle of feelings as they spend time in his mother’s flower shop and around London, rediscovering the blooming connection they once shared has only grown. Iris finds herself torn, having to decide if her happily ever after lies with the man who once stole her heart or the one who’s swept her off her feet in the city of her dreams.

A heartwarming story about love, family – both chosen and biological– friendship, second chances, and home, More Than Buds is a journey through the twists and turns of romance, and a reminder that love, like flowers, often blooms in the most unexpected of ways.
