GRAFTING WITH HEARTS

Claire Matthews has a plan: sell off her late grandmother's apple orchard, return to her Adelaide accounting job, and never look back at Bottlebrush Bend. Too bad Rose Matchwell didn't get the memo.

The town's notorious matchmaker—who has orchestrated decades of successful unions and considers meddling a civic duty—has decided Claire and Tom Harper belong together. Never mind that Claire has a promotion waiting back in Adelaide or that Tom is only interested in saving heritage apple varieties that are on Sweetapple Orchard.

As circumstances keep throwing them together and the town's gossips track their every interaction, Claire discovers her grandmother's orchard holds more secrets than just apple varieties. The unexpected connection between Tom and Claire's grandparents only complicates matters, especially when she finds herself wondering if Rose's schemes might actually be leading her heart somewhere worth exploring.

With her boss demanding her return and the orchard beginning to work its magic, Claire faces a choice that wasn't in her five-year plan. Sometimes the sweetest harvest comes from the most unexpected grafting—and Rose Matchwell never loses when it comes to matters of the heart.

Grafting with Hearts is the first book in a new series. Follow Rose Matchwell as he looks to make the perfect matches for those in Bottlebrush Bend all with the encouragement of the local Garden Club. A fun, sweet, kisses-only romance.
