"A blue rose symbolizes longing for the unattainable." Reina only had one simple wish-to finally have a place she could call home. Instead, life handed her a grumpy neighbor. Laurence is cold, intimidating, and happens to be the classmate she can't stand. Just when she thinks dealing with him is already difficult enough, a little girl named Laurein suddenly appears and boldly asks Reina to be her mommy. The problem? Laurence is Laurein's father. As if getting caught in their lives isn't complicated enough, Reina accidentally uncovers Laurence's biggest secret... only to realize he's not the only one hiding the truth. The ordinary life she thought she had was built on lies, forgotten memories, and long-buried secrets. Now, the home she once wished for is within reach-but so is something far more dangerous. Because somewhere between endless bickering, unexpected family moments, and truths that refuse to stay buried, Reina finds herself wishing for something she never thought she would. Laurence. A wish as rare-and as impossible-as a blue rose.
