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.

Every spring, flowers bloom. Since it is spring, many people tend to buy flowers such as roses and sunflowers. But a woman's favorite flower is different. The flower symbolizes the month of May and her life. For Carol, the Lilies of the Valley had great meaning in her life. She is a psychologist and professor at New York University, who wants to be free from her abusive and pervert ex-husband, Harge. She didn't know how to be free until she met Therese in a public library in New York and her life starts to shift beautifully.
Will they meet for the second time? Will Therese all in love with a woman? Is it possible that Carol's life will be colorful because of Therese? Let us witness the love and life of Carol and Therese.
