This is a story about desire, dreams, decay―and working retail at the end of the world.
After losing her job and her fiancé and moving back from the city to live with her parents, Shell Pine needs some help. And according to the sign in the window, the florist shop in the mall does too. Shell gets the gig, and the flowers she works with there are just the thing she needs to cheer up. Or maybe it's Neve, the beautiful shop manager, who is making her days so rosy?
But you have to get your hands dirty if you want your garden to grow―and Neve's secrets are as dark and dangerous as they come. In the back room of the flower shop, a young sentient orchid actually runs the show, and he is hungry ... and he has a plan for them all.
When the choices are to either bury yourself in the warmth of someone else's fertile soil, or face the cold and disappointing world outside―which would you choose? And what if putting down roots came at a cost far higher than just your freedom?
