Mindy MacPherson has been roped into sleuthing by her friends Katie and Connie. They are going to sneak into a greenhouse to find out about an award winning rose – if they can. Unexpectedly Mindy meets up with Javier and the attraction is instantaneous. Javier and Mindy met a year ago but have not seen one another since. The novella reveals Mindy’s secret and also the secret of the prize winning roses that keep beating Katie’s entries in the Cross Springs Bloom competition.
