Julianne Baker seemingly has it all. Working for a nationally published nature and gardening magazine in Manhattan and leading a glamorous life in the Big Apple ...or is she? Julianne returns to her hometown of Lilac Glen, Georgia to dig into an article on family-based nurseries and floral businesses; something she already knows plenty about after growing up surrounded by her family's floral shop and greenhouses. Going back home down south isn't something Julianne gets to do often. While there, she meets Tucker Case; a handsome investor and real estate manager who is trying to fit in as a farm owner in the town he now calls home after inheriting the picturesque land from his uncle, making him the Bakers' neighbor. As days get longer, and spring starts to reawaken, will flowers be all that bloom? Join Julianne as she opens her heart to new adventures while learning to take life a little slower down back roads; bending with the curves instead of against them. *5 STARS Readers' Favorite* --Reviewed by Peggy Jo Wipf Spring in Lilac Glen by Angie Ellington is a cheerful and joyous shorter novel that will delight her readers. Julianne (Jules) Baker is a successful photographer living in New York. But her dreams and paychecks are not as fulfilling as she had expected when she moved there four years previously. Sent home to Lilac Glen, Georgia, to interview small-business owners who cater to flower shops and nurseries, Jules sees this as more than a well-deserved vacation. Her home town has changed little, except for the handsome neighbor who is just learning the skill of farming. Tucker Case inherited his uncle's farm and tries to adjust to the charms of a small town. The spring rain can't douse the spark between them, but will Jules forget this farm boy when she heads back to the Big Apple? Angie Ellington's fans will enjoy Spring in Lilac Glen as an addition to her other sassy romance novels. The plot of a big-city girl disillusioned by the cut-throat attitudes within her workplace finding peace in her small hometown is given a twist when Jules is forced to make changes. The author shows through her characters how priorities change as we mature and take different paths in our life. Changes in Jules's life add just the right amount of twists. You sense the emotions between Jules and Tucker as they each step out of their comfort zone and adjust to a different place. I would recommend this slow-paced novel to readers who savor a sweet romance, with characters who strive to excel in life. *Kate Rock Lit Chick*-- Dear Hallmark Channel - please take us to Lilac Glen so we can sigh happily about Julianne and Tucker. I really liked this sweet, quick novella. It got me centered after 3 domestic, psychological thrillers. Angie Ellington did that for me (thank you!) and I found myself smiling and comfy. I look forward to a lot more from this author from Lilac Glen and beyond. ♡♡♡♡ 4 sweet hearts! *Amazon Reviewer-PFB* I love reading books set near home. Angie Ellington did a marvelous job describing the beauty and grace of this part of the country. I just moved to Cartersville from the suburbs of Atlanta and was delighted to see Cartersville mentioned. Thank you for a wonderful story!
