Digging In: A Novel

Description

In writer Loretta Nyhan’s warm, witty, and wonderful novel, a widow discovers an unexpected chance to start out over—right in her own backyard.

Paige Moresco found her true love in eighth grade—and lost him two years ago. Since his death, she’s been sleepwalking through life, barely holding on for the sake of her teenage son. Her house is a wreck, the grass is overrun with weeds, and she’s vulnerable to losing her job. As Paige stares at her neglected lawn, she knows she’s hit rock bottom. So she does something entirely unexpected: she begins to dig.

As the hole gets bigger, Paige makes a decision to show her entire yard into a vegetable garden. The neighbors in her tidy gated community are more than a bit of alarmed. Paige knows nothing about gardening, and she’s boldly flouting neighborhood-association bylaws. But with the assistance of new friends, a charming local cop, and the transformative power of the soil, Paige starts to peer potential within the chaos of her life. Something big is starting to take root—both in her garden and in herself.
