Book Description
Recovering from an injury, British soldier Nat goes to Partington Towers, a quiet place in the country where his body and soul can heal. Fascinated by the elaborate Victorian gardens there, Nat goes exploring, finding some of the gardens' former glory still intact, and finding something even more interesting in Richie, a young man Nat can't help falling in love with.
The gardens are more special than even Nat realizes, and soon he finds himself outed to his unit, fighting to stay on as the gardens are sold to a conservation society, and in love with a man that died before he was born. Can Nat use the strange magic the gardens possess to find he and Richie a happy ending?
Described as 'high literature' and 'romance, mystery and drama rolled into one' by author Alexa Snow, 'Roses in December tells the full story of the soldier, his lover and the beautiful garden first introduced in 'Garden of Remembrance', the short story from One Degree of Separation.
