Summary
From the author of the bestselling Seven Sisters series, Lucinda Riley's Hothouse Flower is a moving story of love, heartbreak and, above all, hope.
Read by Stephanie Racine (Daisy Darker)
Georgian mansion Wharton Park was a place of childhood solace for Julia Forrester, spending summers in the Norfolk countryside with her beloved grandfather. So after tragedy strikes, she finds herself seeking comfort at Wharton and the allure of its hothouse, once home to exotic flowers from all corners of the globe but now lying abandoned. There she meets the new owner, the charming and magnetic Kit Crawford, whose own past is shrouded in sadness and mystery.
When Kit finds an old diary, light is finally shed on Wharton Park's past – revealing a century of secrets and heartache, through war-torn Europe and taking them to the vibrant streets of Thailand. Drawn together on this quest, Julia and Kit can but hope to unearth the truth behind the fortunes and failures of the Crawford family . . .
'Thoroughly addictive storytelling with a moving, emotional heart' – Dinah Jefferies, author of The Tea Planter's Wife
This title has been published outside the UK under the title The Orchid House.

Great interwoven yarn as usual
I love reading about other cultures and histories cleverly interwoven into a beautiful, unpredictable- in places- romance.

loved it
I could not stop listening. As with most of Lucinda Rileys' other books, it grabs you immediately and takes hold until the end. I shed a few tears a few times. Lovely set of intertwined stories and narrated well.

the not quite knowing what the next twist will be
A very enjoyable listen, and the narration was just right. I didn't want to hit the pause button.

Another absorbing story from Lucinda Riley
I’m never disappointed by Lucinda Riley’s books. This story made me laugh and cry. It travelled back into the past and surprised me with twists and turns. I fell in love with the characters.
