The Garden Keeper's Heart: A Cottagecore Tale of Gardens, Growth, and Second Chances

Rate this book
Juliet Carver has built a quiet life on her own terms.

After escaping a relationship that left her believing she was too much—too soft, too curvy, too ordinary—she's found peace in her flower farm, her chickens, and the simple magic of morning coffee in vintage mugs. She's learned to be content alone. Safe alone.

Then Holden Pierce walks into her farmers market booth with his six-year-old daughter and changes everything.

A single father restoring the town's abandoned mill, Holden sees what Juliet's ex never a talented designer, a kind heart, and a woman who's already exactly enough. When he hires her to landscape the mill grounds, their professional partnership blooms into something deeper—something that terrifies Juliet almost as much as it thrills her.

Because wanting things is dangerous when you've spent years making yourself small.

The Garden Keeper's Heart is a cottagecore romance about second chances, found family, and learning that taking up space isn't something to apologize for. It's for anyone who's ever felt like too much or not enough, who finds magic in morning rituals and garden dirt, and who believes that soft bodies deserve soft mornings—and passionate love stories.

Perfect for fans of body-positive romance, single-parent love stories, and happily-ever-afters that don't require a makeover montage.

Content This book contains references to past emotional abuse and body shaming, handled with care and leading to healing. Includes open-door romance scenes.
