For a gardener blessed with a green thumb, Savannah Collins’s life sure seems like it’s all thorns, zero roses. She has no job, no relationship, and no place to live. With nothing but a car full of plants and her new rescue kitten, Savannah heads to Bloom, North Carolina, to spend the summer with her beloved Aunt Eleanor, a retired librarian. Her aunt shares her love of literature with the Finders Keepers Library, located in her beautiful garden, where anyone can stop by to pick a book or leave a book.

Welcome to the middle of the turbulent 1960s. Kennedy's been dead for two years, while the Summer of Love lies three years in the future. Five young women come to Washington to share a townhouse while they chase their dreams in the offices across the Potomac. Some want to find a husband, just as their mothers did. Others pray that there's something more to life besides being a housewife. What they find, on the eve of the sexual revolution and at the death of the staid '50s, will shatter their lives and destroy the last of their innocence.
