REVIEW WEDNESDAY - May Flowers

 Good morning, readers.

If you're looking for a quick read during your coffee break, today's book is for you.

BLURB:

Love blooms after the rain…

Aria Garcia is a fifth-grade teacher in Vermont, who likes to keep her private life private. Her co-workers are curious as to who is sending her flowers almost every single day. Aria has never felt the way she does with Damian Rossi. He makes her feel safe and, most importantly, loved.

With each new bouquet of flowers from Damian, Aria falls deeper in love. After a month of sneaking around, Damian is ready to show off his love for Aria. Will Aria be able to find the courage she needs to let go of her fears?


Stories don't come any sweeter than this. Don't be deceived by the length. A lot is packed into the forty-seven pages! 
First, Aria Garcia is dealing with past emotional trauma, making her afraid to fully step into a relationship with a guy that seems beyond perfect.
Next we have Damian, who from what we see from Aria's point of view seems like the perfect guy. Maybe too perfect. 
When Damian puts the brakes on their private relationship, Aria is forced to confront her dad. Later, seeing Damian in his sister's flower shop and how she and her husband interact she realizes something important. 

I saw something in this story I wish a dear friend of mine would understand. We have to let go of whatever happened in our past if we're to truly live in the present. Most of the time we can't do anything about what lives in our brain like the boogey man, orchestrating our every decision in the present. Talk about the situation with whomever was involved. Resolution or not, only you can decide what your true future holds - the happiness you deserve.

The only thing that confused me in it's inclusion was the Cinco de Mayo situation with her class. I couldn't pull it together. Maybe I missed something. So, if you read this book (and I hope you will), please let me know in the comments what you saw.

I'm giving MAY FLOWERS...
