I recently came across Blossoming Flower by Vivian Winslow –
and let me tell you, I absolutely adored everything about this book.
We get to meet Flor de Lima – a young woman who has lost
everything she owns because of the dealings that her father is involved in. We
learn that he is – or use to be a multi-billionaire. She has to learn how to
relive her life. Without having to depend on her father or her mother – who seems
to be good for nothing.
In the process of reinventing herself and figuring what she’s
going to do with her life, she lands a summer job at a ranch. Which is ideal
for her, seeing as she wants to become an equestrian veterinarian. Everything
about the ranch calls to her. From the name, which happens to be “Belo
Horizonte”, pronounced in her native Brazilian - which translates to ‘beautiful
horizon’ in English.
What she doesn’t know is the secrets that surround the
ranch, and how it involves her and her future.
I loved everything about this book. Genuinely loved it. I
fell in love with Flor. She was a beautifully written character, one that I could
relate to. And that is because she was well written and developed. And as for
Collin Taylor, the intriguing young horse trainer – I loved the mystery with
which he was originally introduced. The chemistry that these 2 shared was
absolutely what I needed.
I enjoyed everything about this world. I was so enthralled with
the world that Vivian created, that I felt like I was actually living in it. I
absolutely consider this book a 5 Star Book Review. I’m excited to delve into
the other books that this author has to offer and can’t wait to see what else I
can enjoy.
