Forget-Me-Nots & Wild Flowers

“Coincidences don’t exist, my Ruby Rose.”

Book cover design Vergeet-Me-Nietjes & Wilde Rozen (2024), a contemporary coming of age story

A book perfect for lovers of Gilmore Girls and The Devil Wears Prada, to cozy up with a blanket and a hot beverage on a crisp autumn morning.

Stability is the key to success, and magic doesn’t exist. These are the two main rules Elyse Bennett grew up with. Mishaps are not on her schedule, but when her online software and hard drive simultaneously crash and she loses all her data from the local bookstore her entire future seems to shatter before her eyes.

Even Elyse knows she can never plan her life to perfection and when she’s confronted with her odd ten-year-old cousin she wants nothing to do with the child. But after an old diary mysteriously surfaces and she can no longer explain strange events, Elyse begins to wonder if she has made the right choice. Stuck in a cycle of reality and denial, she tries to right her wrongs, but can she fix her life before her past catches up to her?
