July 1915. The picnic across Lake Michigan was to be the highlight of the summer for young nurse Clara-a day filled with laughter, dancing, and budding romance aboard a stately excursion steamer. But when unspeakable tragedy strikes, Clara''s life is changed forever. July 1944. Thirty years later, still carries a heavy load of guilt and regret over the events of that day. Now a spinster who has spent her whole life taking care of other people, all she wants now is to live out her life in peace, tending her roses and protecting her heart. But beneath the gruff exterior lies a story, and when new neighbors move in and shake up her quiet world, Clara must grapple with long-buried realities. Is it ever too late to find grace, redemption--and even love?  By turns funny, tender, and bittersweet, The Rose Keeper celebrates the redemptive hope found in friendship, faith, and the search for belonging.

A delightful collection of short stories set in the 1920s.
