The reason for roses / by Babs H. Deal.

Deal, Babs H., : (author.).

Summary:

"Deal brings three girls together in a small Alabama town in the late 1930s and creates a richly textured world of relatives and friends, a time filled with picnics and stately front porches, with the agonies of adolescent love and the excitement of secrets shared over iced tea and strawberry ice cream. For Spencer and her cousins, Brook and Raleigh, it was a time of crystalizing hopes and dreams, in which the very air seemed quickened by the scent of the roses which grew so determinedly that year. And as the three girls grew into women the lingering scent of that very special summer leaves its mark indelibly on each of their lives, though in very different ways
