Phoebe arranges flowers at the Rose Chalet, one of San Francisco's premier wedding venues. She creates beautiful arrangements that wither and die, just like the marriages she helps celebrate. Her parents' painful divorce taught her that relationships bring only complications. She lives in the present moment and avoids emotional attachments. Patrick Knight takes risks in his career and personal life. He fled his family's landscaping business to become a successful architect. While overseeing construction of a new California house, he meets Phoebe and immediately recognizes his soulmate in this fearless, attractive, intelligent florist. The moment he holds her in his arms, he knows she's the one. But Phoebe has spent years protecting her heart from the kind of pain her parents endured. One dance with Patrick forces her to reconsider everything she believes about love. Will she risk her heart for what might be the most fragile and precious connection of her life?
