Love in Bloom

About the Book

About the Author

Tom Benjamin kept his life private when he was hired by Macy Holloway as a gardener. He enjoyed the work, and then he met Pam Schiller, Macy’s lovely niece who didn’t trust him. Why, she asked, was this handsome, well-dressed man doing such menial work? But, despite her distrust of him, there appeared to be something blooming between them. It turns out that he’s a police lieutenant who had been shot. He was given one year to completely recover from his wounds. His wife had died in childbirth, and he has a five-year old daughter who through no fault of her own, causes him great anxiety, which included a kidnapping.. The romance between Tom and Pam goes up and down, but eventually winds up happily, to Macy’s joy. This story is approximately 25,900 words, and is available.
