Dailyegg A wonderful magical book - In Yarrow, Kentucky it is known as a bourbon town. The Bonner family owns it. Also in the town lives another family The Haywood's. They have always lived in the town. They are known as healers. They can take away pain, anxiety and grief and then they place it into the garden. The garden feeds from it. Kaden Bonner returns to town to attend his father's funeral and no one remembers him. This story was captivating. I loved it so much. I loved that there was lots of romance especially with an older couple in their 40's. The families and the grudges between families and of course the magic. Liz Parker does an amazing job weaving such a magical tale. I hope she continues to write.

About the Book
"There's something magical about Yarrow, Kentucky. The three empathic witches of the Haywood family are known for their shadow garden-from strawberries that taste like chocolate to cherry tomatoes imbued with the flavors of basil and oregano. Their magic can cure any heartache, and the fruits of their garden bring a special quality to the local bourbon distillery. On one day every year, a shot of Bonner bourbon will make your worst memory disappear. But the Haywoods will never forget the Bonners' bitter betrayal. Twenty years ago, the town gave up more than one memory; they forgot an entire summer. One person died. One person disappeared. And no one has any recollection of either. As events from that fateful summer start to come to light, there must be a reckoning between the rival Haywood and Bonner families. But untangling the deep roots of this town's terrible secrets will expose more than they could ever anticipate about love, treachery, and the true nature of their power"--Book Synopsis

Today, Liz lives in California with her husband, dog, and too many houseplants to name (though she could if you asked). You can find her online, at: LizParkerwrites.comInstagram: @LizParkerWrites
