New Book for Review, ‘The Language of Flowers’ by Vanessa Diffenbaugh

Language of Flowers cover Vanessa Diffenbuagh is touring in September 2011 with her women’s fiction book, The Language of Flowers.

The Victorian language of flowers was used to convey romantic expressions: honeysuckle for devotion, aster for patience, and red roses for love. But for Victoria Jones, it’s been more useful in communicating grief, mistrust, and solitude. After a childhood spent in the foster-care system, she is unable to get close to anybody, and her only connection to the world is through flowers and their meanings.

Now eighteen and emancipated from the system, Victoria has nowhere to go and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of her own. Soon a local florist discovers her talents, and Victoria realizes that she has a gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. But a mysterious vendor at the flower market inspires her to question what’s been missing in her life. And when she’s forced to confront a painful secret from her past, she must decide whether it’s worth risking everything for a second chance at happiness.

  1. Hi Cheryl, I would like to participate in the blog tour The Language of Flowers if possible. I wasn’t sure how many we can participate in at a time. I have 2 confirmed dates for PUYB tours so far one in July and one in August.
    And any day in Sept will be great for me.
    Thanks so much/……..Joy Hannabass
