She, more than anyone, understood the importance of green space and nature for health and happiness.
For her a garden wasn’t a luxury, it was a necessity.

Sunlight shimmered across his dark hair and a pair of sunglasses concealed the expression in his eyes but she could see by the way he angled his head and occasionally nodded that he was listening carefully to the discussion.
Some men did all the talking, as if their voice was the only one worth hearing, but Matt wasn’t like that. Matt was a listener.
