A Thousand Butterfly Wishes (Whisper of the Pines Series)

WINNER: 2017 New Apple Annual Award Official Selection-RomanceWhat if the price of your wish is living without it?                                         Rachel Gowen wishes for nothing more than to escape the past decade--to safely lock away the memories that keep her from living a normal life. But a Native American butterfly legend, a mysterious stranger, a cast of quirky characters long past their prime, and Nico, a tenacious and caring nursing assistant, plunge her down a path that will ignite the very memories she's desperate to escape. Rachel begins a new career as a nurse in a retirement facility. After all, how risky can it be working with the elderly? Ignoring the warnings from her crusty supervisor, she quickly forms deep attachments to her patients, helping them in ways far beyond her duties. And when a casual stroll turns into a budding relationship with Ben, the handsome British doctor who's too busy, too apathetic, and too distant--it may be exactly what she's looking for. But Rachel can't conform to the rules, nor can she deny the connection she shares with Nico. With her job in jeopardy, Rachel's priorities and relationship with Ben are challenged. But one thing is certain--her butterfly wishes pave the way to a future that will upend her life.
