Summary: Can love bloom in a neglected garden in this small-town romance? Jackson My plan to start over had been a simple one. I’d fill the van with fuel and put down roots wherever I was when it ran dry. I was running away—from my ex-wife, my ex-boss, and my ex-life—and excited for a fresh start. What could be better than opening a plant nursery with no one I know around to bother me? But even the most open-ended plans can fall apart, something I learn when my van breaks down in a place called Larchdown. The longer I’m forced to stay in the strange village, the more it gets under my skin. When I meet the beautiful but troubled new owner of Larchdown House, my life gets a lot more complicated. Luca My art career is on the rocks after a spiteful review from my art critic ex-lover. Amid the scandal, I can't bring myself to leave my apartment or even think about picking up a paintbrush. Needing to escape my life in London and dismal new reality for a while, I head to the country home I’ve inherited from my great-aunt. After meeting the gorgeous gardener who’s been 'borrowing' the grounds for his plants, I might have found a reason to stay and perhaps find my muse again. Except the guy is straight… isn't he? Both men must confront their demons if they want to find their way to each other and learn to trust again. But no one can bury their past forever and when it finally pays a visit, are the new roots too shallow or have they done enough to cultivate them? Putting Down Roots is a sweet but steamy MM Romance featuring an artist running away from a poor review to his latest show from his art critic ex-lover and a gardener trying to cultivate a new life after a failed marriage.
