Witch of Wild Things by Raquel Vasquez Gilliland

Sage Flores left her hometown years ago after her younger sister died, but returns reluctantly when she needs a soft place to land. She slides back into her old gig at the Cranberry Rose Company, where her ability to speak to plants comes in very handy when she’s tasked with tracking down some special plant specimens. There’s just one problem with this mission: Sage is paired with Tennessee Reyes, the boy who broke her heart in high school. Now, on top of her dead sister’s ghost bringing her coffee unbidden and her other sister’s volatile magic creating all kinds of weather-related chaos, Sage has to find a way to resist the man she has spent a lot of time hating. If you love plant magic, magical realism, and second-chance love stories, get into this book and series. —Vanessa Diaz
