Hothouse Flower and the Nine Plants of Desire by Margot Berwin

Hothouse Flower and the Nine Plants of Desire (Wheeler Publishing Large Print Hardcover)

by Margot Berwin

Lila Nova is a thirty-two year-old advertising copyrighter who lives alone in a plain, white box of an apartment. Recovering from a heartbreaking divorce, Lila’s mantra is simple: no pets, no plants, no people, no problems. But when Lila meets David Exley, a ruggedly handsome plant-seller, her lonely life blossoms into something far more colorful.
 
From the cold, harsh streets of Manhattan to the verdant jungles of the Yucatan Peninsula, Hothouse Flower is the story of a woman who must travel beyond the boundaries of sense and comfort to find what she truly wants.

This fell between a 3 and a 4 star really. The story was interesting and sucked me right in, but the characters were weak, annoying and just overall unlikeable.
