Her Gardener's Secret (Love's Landscape) - Softcover

How much is a degree in landscaping worth when there aren't any landscaping jobs? All Lydia wants to do is design gardens, but her mother is hell bent on her getting a job as a secretary, no doubt secretly hoping that she’ll wind up marrying her boss. In desperation, Lydia lands a position working as a gardening volunteer at Heathley Park and Gardens. She’s banking on it giving her the experience she needs to get a job in landscaping. Instead, it only adds to her problems... Lydia and the head gardener, Scott, don’t exactly see eye to eye. He’s certain she’s not cut out for the physical, backbreaking work at Heathley, and tries everything he can to make Lydia quit her voluntary role. Lydia is determined to prove him wrong, even though she’s always thought she was made for the designing side of gardening. With her family and her boyfriend all sharing Scott’s doubts about her abilities, Lydia is left to rely on her own self belief. Will Scott ever see her as a serious gardener, or is she doomed to be a pawn in his chess game of gardening politics forever? Out of the blue, Lydia is handed more responsibility than she’s ever imagined and then a rare job opportunity surfaces. Everything is about to change at Heathley.
