FLOWERS IN DECEMBER TRILOGY: Flowers in December, Coming Home, Second Chance by Jane Suen – Review by Francis O’Sullivan

FLOWERS IN DECEMBER TRILOGY by Jane Suen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading Jane Suen’s Flowers in December Trilogy, so it’s great that the three books are now collected into one volume! When I finished the first book, I was eager to find out what happened next so being able to seamlessly segue into the next book (and the one after!) is a big advantage!
It’s a heart-warming wintery romance story that follows Connor as he copes with the grief of losing his mother and re-evaluates his life. His priority so far has been working his way up the business ladder, chasing promotions at the exclusion of all else. Returning home to bury his mother reminds him of everything he missed. It’s a hard journey but, with the help of Tom the cat (who disapproves strongly to city life) Connor figures out what matters most to him.
I particularly like how we see the broader cast of characters develop over the course of the books. It’s particularly seeing how the relationship between Mrs Rainer and her daughter, Alana, unfolds – especially after everything Mrs Rainer has done for Connor!
When I read the books separately, I rated them either four or five stars. The added convenience of having all the books together bumps this up to a five-star collection! I’d recommend it for snuggling up with on cold winter’s days – it would make a great holiday read!
