Victoria is a young girl who has been in foster-care and children's homes for most of her life. At eighteen she has to make her own way in the world and ends up living rough in a public park. Surrounded by flowers that she understands so significantly. She learnt the language and meaning of flowers from the only lady who came close to being her Mum as a child.

A florist taps into Victoria's gift and she meets a soulmate who starts to turn her life around. Victoria has a tragic past that she is frightened to confront and runs away from everything that could make her happy.

A beautiful story of forgiveness, love and reunion, interwoven with the Victorian language of flowers and their meanings.
