About the book
The must-read companion to country singer-songwriter Caylee Hammack’s new album, coauthored by Hammack and New York Times–bestselling author Carolyn Brown.
After her heart is shattered, Sam is now on the run and questioning whether she should have heeded her father’s advice: don’t buy a vintage car until you know how to fix it. Stranded in a tiny town with her dog Nibbler, she awaits the repair of her 1965 Mustang.
Jack, the only mechanic in remote Homestead, Texas, catches Sam’s eye with his tall presence. Surprised by his offer to stay at his grandmother’s B&B, the Rose Garden, Sam starts to feel at home. Even though she plans to leave soon, Ms. Kathleen’s offer of a room in exchange for help at her flower shop keeps Sam around.
Living in the quaint new environment surrounded by flowers, Sam begins to feel settled. However, when she meets local bookstore owner Noah, her heartache resurfaces. Will she be able to trust again or will she run away?
Bed of Roses, with chapters inspired by Caylee Hammack’s album of the same name, guides readers from heartbreak to healing. Reflecting the artist’s own journey, this novel allows readers to experience her authentic sound and storytelling, reminding us all that we have the power to cultivate our own roses.
Praise for this book
A songbook for the heart!
An absolutely charming story about starting over, rich with friendship, heartbreak, true bonds, and new love.
Filled with smalltown charm, Bed of Roses will warm your heart and put a smile on your face.
A heartwarming smalltown gem that had me cheering on our heroine Sam from the very first page. . . . Her tenacity and tenderness shine through as she navigates the drama and gossip of a quirky little town. The characters are as colorful as they come-a few good, a few bad, and few you will never forget. And then there's Noah, who owns the bookstore. Cue swooning. . . . Bed of Roses is a must-read. It's Steel Magnolias meets your favorite country song. You'll laugh, cry, and maybe even find yourself humming a tune by the end.
