A flower that only blooms for the broken-hearted. A sapphic romance full of mystery, grief, and autumn nights. Lorena Grief has followed me like a second heartbeat—steady, constant, impossible to quiet. When a strange crimson flower appears on my doorstep, blooming out of season and said to seek out the broken-hearted, I can’t look away. It feels like a message, or maybe a warning. Then I meet Marisol, the florist who tends to flowers that bloom where pain once lived, and suddenly my carefully built walls start to crumble. Maybe the flower isn’t a curse at all. Maybe it’s a beginning. Part of The Road to Us Collection Night’s Bloom is Book Four in The Road to Us Collection , a series of interconnected queer romances set in Los Angeles and beyond.
