Violets of March

Emily Wilson is a successful young author from New York who’s just gone through a divorce and a creative crisis. In search of peace and clarity, she travels to Bainbridge Island to stay with her great-aunt Bee.

But the peaceful coastal life she remembers from childhood summers quickly reveals hidden tensions. The locals are distant, secrets linger in the air, and Bee is clearly wary of Emily’s growing connection with a charming man named Jack.

When Emily discovers an old diary from 1943 in a drawer, she begins to unravel a story of forbidden love and deep family ties — one that mirrors her own life in unexpected ways.

A beautifully written novel about healing, second chances, and the mystery of the past.
