In Rose Garden Husband, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Margaret Widdemer invites readers into the life of Phyllis, a 25-year-old childrens librarian who excels in her profession but finds herself yearning for something more. When she encounters a familiar face from her hometown—a woman with two children—Phyllis begins to grapple with her own desires for love and belonging. In a surprising twist, she marries an invalid expected to soon pass away. Will Phyllis discover the love she longs for, and can she redefine her life against the odds?
