Marla Ponds has a simple goal: Win the "Village in Bloom" contest and crush her nemesis, Mrs. Higgins, into horticultural dust. Her roses are pruned. Her marrows are tucked in. Her life is perfectly pH-balanced.
Until she finds a three-hundred-pound intruder in her compost bin.
He isn’t a badger. He isn’t a thief. He is Gorphalax, a Gentleman Professor of Decay from the Sector of Ooze. He is massive, purple, gelatinous, and has a terrifyingly sophisticated palate for rotting cabbage.
Marla should call the police. Instead, she puts him in a beige trench coat, slaps a fishing hat on his eye-stalks, and introduces him to the Vicar as her "Cousin Barry."
But keeping a giant, sentient gastropod a secret in the gossiping village of Little Dribbling is harder than getting a petunia to bloom in January. Mrs. Higgins is prowling the perimeter. The Judges are on their way. And Barnaby—with his pompous lectures on soil biology and his surprising skill at rose fertilization—is starting to grow on Marla.
She wanted the perfect garden. But she’s about to learn that the best things in life don’t bloom in the sun; they thrive in the mess.
Love Among the Leaves is a laugh-out-loud, heartwarming cozy monster romance featuring a heroine who needs to let go, a hero who loves trash, and a slow-burn romance that is surprisingly... sticky.
