Mibby Garrett is holding on the best she can without her beloved husband Scott, but it isn’t easy being a widow with a teenage boy determined to act his age. Her garden design business is their only means of support, and the continuous skyrocketing temperatures and drought are threatening to deal it a final blow. If not for her friends and neighbors Mibby would not have the moral support she needs, nor would she have their numerous attempts at matchmaking. She admits a little romance would be welcome in her life, but none of them are Scott, and she’s convinced that none of them are up to parenting her sometimes difficult teen, Ky. What will it take to get her life and that of her son’s back on track? Mibby has prayed for an answer and her faith is strong, but can she let go of the past long enough to recognize a divine response? Always Green is the second book of Ms. Hill’s Garden Gates series and continues the stories of Mibby Garrett, her son, neighbors and friends in the community which they live. Strongly character driven and with a major emphasis on gardening, this story takes a look at each individual and how their lives impact one another when problems arise. Some readers may see a strong religious analogy in Mibby’s personal problems and the problems facing the delicate plants of her garden design business. A gentle, heartwarming read.
