Must Love Flowers: A Novel

In Must Love Flowers, bestselling author Debbie Macomber tells a tender story of renewal, friendship, and second chances. Joan Sample, a widow and empty-nester, has slowly retreated from the world around her. Encouraged by her sister, she begins taking small but meaningful steps toward rebuilding her life — joining a grief support group, hiring a landscaper to revive her neglected garden, and renting out a room in her home. As her garden begins to bloom again, so too does Joan’s sense of possibility.

Across town, Maggie Herbert is balancing nursing school with a demanding job and a difficult home life. When she moves into Joan’s spare room, the two women form an unexpected bond that changes them both. As Maggie faces choices about love and independence, and Joan considers opening her heart again, they discover that friendship can be as transformative as family. Filled with warmth and quiet hope, Must Love Flowers is a comforting novel about healing, resilience, and the beauty of found family.
