Timiosanthos says, "She broke my heart in two with Desert Rice, and now, she follows it up with this gem of a novel. With beautiful prose, a distinct and enchanting voice, and life-altering themes of love, forgiveness, passion and hope, Angela Scott once again brings readers into the very heart of her characters' lives."

Seven years after running from West Virginia, Sam's now a young woman of nineteen, trying to put the pieces of her life together with the help of her family—Jacob, Boone, and Laura. But the naked man in the desert spirals her world out of control, resurrecting past hurts and revealing old secrets. It also pits against one another the two men who vie for her heart: Carson, her friend, her first kiss, and the one man who knows everything about her past and loves her despite it; and Turner, the stranger who knows nothing, but who excites and frustrates her all at once.

When bad choices made as a child lead to more bad choices as a young adult, Sam finds herself at a crossroads, forced to face her demons head-on if she plans to have any future at all—with Carson, with Turner, or with anyone. But fixing the wrongs of the past takes time, and learning to forgive one's self is damn near impossible.

Heather C. Cox says, "I've cried like a baby throughout this entire book, right until the end. Desert Rice and Desert Flower are MUST READS!! When you do, you will feel exactly as I do now. There aren't enough words to express my praise for these two books."
