Jute would like to make herself invisible, but she can’t. Instead, she makes herself repulsive, even frightening. This keeps her step-dad’s hands off her, so it doesn’t matter if people mistake her for a boy or call her a freak. Jute is certain she doesn’t need love anyway, doesn’t want it. She doesn’t even know how to love. But if she did, she would love Allie.
Allie is beautiful, wears vintage dresses, and craves approval. She blames herself for what has been done to her. She knows if she becomes a better person, a person worth loving, a person willing to give up everything, a man will love her. If only Allie could see herself through Jute’s eyes…
When Allie inadvertently puts Jute in danger, they are forced to face their demons. If they drop their guard, will love be able to penetrate their scars and repair their hearts, or will their self-loathing destroy them before it can?
Winter Seedlings is a story rich with characters struggling to define their sexuality, reach self-acceptance, and understand what it means to be loved.
