This is a great trilogy about hope, loss, love and second chances. This is a great author that I never hesitate to pick up and have read every one of her books. They are well written, engaging stories that will keep you turning pages to the end. It takes you through Mary Ann and Connor’s relationship and life struggles. I loved watching their relationship grow with each book. They are great characters that are strong and have great chemistry. They bring the story to life and made me feel as if I was part of their story. I highly recommend reading this trilogy, you won’t regret picking it up.

FLOWERS IN DECEMBER TRILOGY: Flowers in December, Coming Home, Second Chance By Jane Suen 5 out of 5 stars
The stories in this boxset are amazing. They will pull you in and not let you go until you have read the final one. I loved the characters of Connor and Mary Ann. Connor has come home for his mother’s funeral. Home is a place with a lot of memories. As he grieves, he also finds himself talking to Mary Ann. Mary Ann owns a small-town flower shop. She is well known in town and goes out of her way to make sure the flower arrangements she makes are beautiful and well done. She meets Connor and then just as quickly he disappears. Will Connor come back? Will Mary Ann still be interested as he didn’t tell her why he left? What does the future hold for Mary Ann and Connor? Read these stories to find out. These stories are emotional and mine was going up and down the entire time I was reading them. I grew to care about Connor and Mary Ann and wanted them to find happiness. There are heartbreaking and heartwarming moments. The stories flow smoothly, and I found them wonderful to read. I also liked the additional characters that are introduced and how they interact with Connor and Mary Ann. Even the family’s orange tabby cat has a part to play. I also liked that the setting for the stories is in a small town. Don’t miss out on stories that will touch your heart. Highly recommended.

FLOWERS IN DECEMBER TRILOGY: Flowers in December, Coming Home, Second Chance by Jane Suen is an emotional series that focuses on grief and self-discovery. Having all three books is a bonus because you don’t have to wait for the next book to be available, they are all right there ready and waiting to go.
Flowers in December is the first book in the series and is a very short tale and is a touching story of one person’s grief. It is a very emotional time for our main character, which sees him going through a myriad of emotions on this journey which also leads to self-discovery. The writing style is easy to follow, but I did find it hard to hold my attention at times, with the overly polite conversations taking place, but Jane did a nice job of dealing with the sensitive issue death. This book will remind you not to take others for granted in your life and suddenly finding your place in the world even through loss.
Coming Home: the sequel to Flowers in December is a story of one man who after the death of his mother is learning to deal with his grief. In order to pull himself out of his funk he has decided to leave his old life behind and start anew where he grew up. With old friends and new he celebrates the season of his first Christmas without his mother. It is a very quick but emotional read. Jane is a master at never doing what you think should be and always leaves me a little frustrated. But having said that she always writes from the heart and that is infused within her words in her stories. Read and enjoy but you need to read the first book Flowers in December first.
Second Chance: The Conclusion of the Flowers in December Trilogy is an emotional journey where my emotions were all over the place. This is a second chance romance story that I read in one sitting. The characters of Mary Ann and Connor Norton are likeable and well developed. There was some going back in time with Mary Ann’s history some helped but Jane is a master at never doing what you think should be and always leaves me a little frustrated. But having said that she always writes from the heart. Connor’s withdrawal from the world after his mother’s death left Mary Ann wondering what was going on. When he recovers enough, he decides that he needs her but is she still there and waiting?
