Croissants de France was a bit overpriced, and the name of the place was woefully kitschy, but Emmeline had to admit, they did make the very best petits fours on the island. Not the best idea for a breakfast food, particularly in a climate that led Emmeline to spend a good portion of her time clad in naught more than a swimsuit, but on occasion she had to indulge. A quick stop at a coffee house not far down the road, and she was fully equipped for a pleasant morning spent in The Garden.
The shop door sent a musical jingling of bells as Emmeline pushed it open and she smiled, closing her eyes a moment to breathe in the scent of a myriad of flowers perfuming the air. It was warmer in the shop, for the benefit of all the beautiful blooms, and Emmeline felt the heat of the two large paper cups she balanced in a carboard carrier pulsing against her side. Careful to balance the pink box of pastry she carried in the opposite hand, she adjusted the multicolored woven bag over her shoulder and let the door swing shut behind her.
