What happens when the relationship you have taken for granted suddenly ends? Ava Connors is comfortable with her life just as it is, still living in the tiny terrace house where she was brought up by her grandmother, Maggie, seeing her long-term boyfriend Finlay and working in a florist. But Maggie's health is declining and Finlay is tired of waiting for Ava to make a commitment. Ava has never really known her mother Scarlett; when she inherits an old and dilapidated house it ignites an interest in the mother who abandoned her as a child. Why did Scarlett leave her to be brought up by her grandmother? Ava begins to question her past. In turn, this sets off a series of events that will change her life forever. A Posy of Promises looks at the relationships we have and the questions we ask of those we love.
