    About this ebook

    In the tropical beach town of Sierra, Florida, an optimistic florist named Leah Acosta is as happy as can be: She lives near the renowned turquoise waters off Florida's Emerald Coast, has a rewarding social life, and dreams of making the world a better place. Leah is content with her endless supply of flowers and dreams until an afternoon when she witnesses something she is most certainly not meant to see.

    Suddenly, Leah's concrete optimism is shaken, and she finds herself connected to a group of people whose stories are interconnected in a way that intrigues her and leaves her questioning her part in their world. Therefore, Leah is introduced to people who are unlike her in every way: the pessimistic lawyer, Stephen; the narcissistic housewife, Amelia; and two secretive newlyweds, Julian and Constance.

    Through her newfound connections, Leah uncovers the truth about the small town around her, all while trying to remain true to herself.
