The first flowers each spring bring big changes along with them.
Two women, thinking that they are too different, find that those differences don't have to be bad...
Dani lost all her dreams in the divorce three years ago, but she's finally saved up enough to live her own dream this time. So, she moves to the island of Schiermonnikoog with her young daughter, Rose, to open a flower shop, ready for a new start in her life.
Her heart is still tender, but when she catches a glimpse of her daughter's teacher, things start to change.
Kim is the only one of her siblings who still lives on the island. She loves her job as a primary school teacher but with siblings with big careers, she feels like she's always behind them, never the same. She teaches, takes care of her parents and still feels like she's not doing enough, like she's supposed to do more.
That is, until she gets a new pupil in her class whose mother makes her rethink everything she ever presumed about her life, who makes her rethink everything she believed in.
Spring is coming and that means teaching about plants and colours and how things grow. A tour around the town with Kim's class, trying to spot spring flowers and a couple of little lambs, brings the women closer together. But it's not until an intimate moment at a dinner party that things start to get intense.
This year, will there be more than just flowers blooming on the island?
This is the third book in the Seasons on the Island series, a series of books about women who fall in love with other women on the Dutch island of Schiermonnikoog.
Let yourself be transported to this beautiful place and you might find yourself falling in love with the island along with the love story of these women.
Josie doesn't want to spend yet another Christmas as the only single adult at the family dinner. So, instead, she books a week long holiday to her favourite island, Schiermonnikoog. Ready to spend it doing what she loves doing most, long walks on the beach with her dog and reading novels in front of a fire.
What she hasn't counted on is running into her old summer fling, the one girl she could never forget.
Sanne is freshly heartbroken, and instead of having to deal with her parents' pitying looks over Christmas dinner, she decides to still go on the winter holiday she'd booked, even if it means going on her own. She can entertain herself well enough, and maybe some fresh air will clear her head of all the darkness from the last months.
But when she sees Josie at the cafe, she can't help how her heart beats faster or how much she wants the other woman to hold her.
What starts as a shared meal at a cafe, followed by the first snow of the season, could turn into much more.
They lost their chance of being together when they spent the summers on the island as teens, but can they take it now that they're adults?
Can they take the chance amid knee-high snow and Christmas decorations?

Valentine's Day is right around the corner and when Kara comes in for crafting supplies to make cards with her class, Lin makes a bold offer.
