Anderson in Bloom by Jennifer Dugan

Pull up a chair by the window. This one’s a keeper.

From Jennifer Dugan, author of Love at First Set, comes a hilariously sexy enemies-to-lovers, second-chance rom-com about a reclusive former child star turned florist whose quiet life gets gloriously turned upside down.

Anderson “Andy” Ducharme has been hiding for a long time. Six years ago, she walked away from LA—the toxic relationships, the embezzling agents, all of it—and landed in a little flower shop tucked away in coastal New England. (Sound familiar? We thought so.) She traded the spotlight for petals and salt air, and she liked it that way. Quiet. Safe.

Then her (in)famous ex and former costar, Nicole “Nikki” Price, announces a tell-all memoir about their tumultuous childhood on the Nik and Andy show. One too many drinks and one very ill-advised text later, Nikki shows up on Andy’s doorstep looking for answers—and Andy can’t deny the simmering attraction that threatens to boil over every time they get close.

Can they really reunite without wrecking the life Andy so carefully rebuilt? Or is she setting herself up for fresh heartbreak?

What you’ll find inside:

• Second-chance romance
• Celebrity meets small-town charm
• Friends-with-benefits tension
• Former exes, unfinished business

Warm, funny, and impossible to put down—this is the LGBTQ+ rom-com to curl up with on a grey, rainy afternoon while the cove fog rolls in.
