Carla has always been a romantic; after all, she couldn’t run the only flower shop in town, Happy Petals, if she didn’t believe in true love, right? She can quote every line in The Princess Bride, and she knows what every flower, color, and combination of colorful flowers means. She also happens to be single. So very single, in fact, that she’s forgotten what it’s like to have a man give her a single carnation, let alone a dozen roses. She’s just about given up on love for herself when Christian comes into her life. For one brief, shining moment, she thinks she might be able to have her own happily ever after. But nothing worth having comes easily… Coming June 2019,Bloom of Love is the tenth novel in the Long Valley series, although all books in the Long Valley world can be read as standalones. It has some strong language, and oh my, sexy times. Enjoy!
