Season of Dragonflies
Capturing the essence of sisterhood with the sweetness of flowers, Season of the Dragonflies is a beguiling tale of practical magic, old secrets, and new love
“A rich, deeply satisfying debut.” — Beatriz Williams, author of The Secret Life of Violet Grant
For generations, the Lenore women have manufactured a fragrance unlike any other. Hidden in the Blue Ridge Mountains, their perfumery guards unique, mysterious ingredients. The Lenores’ signature elixir is the key to success for the world’s most powerful women.
Willow, the coolly elegant matriarch, is the brains behind the operation. Her gorgeous golden-haired daughter, Mya, is its heart and can “read” scents and envision their power to influence events. But Willow’s younger daughter, dark-haired, soulful Lucia, claims no magical touch; wanting no part of the family business, she has left the mountains to make her own way in New York City.
When a divorce leaves Lucia at loose ends, she returns to the Blue Ridge Mountains and discovers trouble brewing. Willow is experiencing strange spells of forgetfulness. Mya is plotting to take the reins of the business. And most ominously, the strange, magical plants that provide the perfume’s secret ingredient seem to be dying. With the Lenore empire at stake, Lucia has suddenly begun to show signs of possessing her own special abilities. And her return to the mountains — heralded by a swarm of blue dragonflies — may be the answer they all need.
