Narrative Conducive To Books Red Lily (In the Garden #3)
A Harper has always lived at Harper House, the centuries-old mansion just outside of Memphis. And for as long as anyone alive remembers, the ghostly Harper Bride has walked the halls, singing lullabies at night...Hayley Phillips came to Memphis hoping for a new start, for herself and her unborn child. She wasn't looking for a handout from her distant cousin Roz, just a job at her thriving In the Garden nursery.
What she found was a home surrounded by beauty and the best friends she's ever had — including Roz's son Harper. To Hayley's delight, her new daughter Lily has really taken to him. But to Hayley's chagrin, she has begun to dream about Harper — as much more than a friend.
If Hayley gives in to her desire, she's afraid the foundation she's built with Harper will come tumbling down. Especially since she's begun to suspect that her feelings are no longer completely her own.
Flashes of the past and erratic behavior make Hayley believe that the Harper Bride has found a way inside of her mind and body. It's time to put the Bride to rest once and for all, so Hayley can know her own heart again — and whether she's willing to risk it...

Probably 3.5 stars on this one. The ghost story kept ramping up through each book, and in this one it moves into possession. I enjoyed the main characters but felt the ending was a little abrupt, maybe even a little flat after all that buildup. And I did kind of hope David would end up with someone, too. Review to come.This trilogy is amazing. My mother recommended me this author and her books... and it's amazing! You can find love, family, friendship... in this book, I really, really, really loved Harper. He is... such a romantic, protector man. The characters are amazing, the story is awesome, the writing is wonderful.
It was so nice to be back with these characters, and what a great way to end the trilogy. I loved the ghost aspect of this series and couldn't wait to see how it ended. I'm very pleased. I love Nora's writing and her friendships. She clearly knows what a positive relationship and friendship looks like.

Full review now posted!Rating: 4.5/5 starsThis was my favorite installment in the series! Hayley is Rozs distant cousin from Little Rock, who packed up her life and moved after her dad passed away and she found herself in trouble from getting too cozy with a friend. When she showed up on the doorstep of Harper House, she was six months pregnant and banking on family ties to give her and her baby a chance at a fresh start. But she wasnt looking for charity. Hayley is a hard worker, determined to
I really hate to give Nora Roberts low marks on a book, but this one leaves me no choice. Instead of a neat wrap to a compelling trilogy, it was more of a dragged-out ending to a story that just didnt stretch far enough. In Blue Dahlia we met the whole crew starring in this series and got an introduction to the Harper Bride, who haunts Harper House, where most of them live. In Black Rose we learned more about the Harper family, and how the Harper Bride fit into it. In this book, the rest of the
I have read and enjoyed every book from Nora Roberts. She is one of my favorite authors!! The Garden Trilogy was very good, some love, some romance and a bunch of mystery.
