A Special Kind of Heart

By Modi Ramos

Daisy and Poppy couldn't be any more different if they tried. Daisy, the reckless and carefree daughter, is on the brink of turning thirty and is still clueless as to what she wants to do with herself or with her life. The only thing Daisy is sure of is that she has no intentions of having children or getting married, something which drives her old-fashioned mother absolutely crazy. Perfect Poppy is their mother's dream come true, happily married to her college sweetheart, Charlie, with three young daughters all before the age of thirty. The youngest Adams daughter loves being a mother and a wife, but deep down she secretly yearns for something more-even if that something defies her mother's wishes.Their mother, Scarlett, owns and operates Adams Floral Shop in the small, fictional South Texas town of Harrison. Scarlett employs Daisy at her shop hoping she can teach her daughter some responsibility and the women's differences often collide when Scarlett can't keep her opinions to herself and Daisy forgets to bite her mouthy tongue. Poppy has her hands full at home dealing with three demanding children and a husband who's eager to have more... a Charlie Jr. God willing. The man that they all knew and loved, Harry Adams, passed away unexpectedly ten months prior and his death has proved to affect these women individually, making them take a closer look at who they really are. The story goes on to show how they are each surviving after their father's/husband's loss: Daisy, who learns she isn't as strong as she thinks she is, Poppy, who learns to face her fears, and Scarlett, who learns that there can be happiness after loss.
