A white bird falls from the sky with royal gold thread tangled around its leg-and a message no flower crown maker should ever have to hear. The palace garden will not wake. The Blessing Bloom remains closed. And the prince of Floria has vanished into the Lost Forest on the morning of the Spring Crown Festival. Emilia lives a quiet life in Bellwick, weaving flower crowns for festivals, weddings, and anyone willing to listen to a few opinionated daisies.
She can hear flowers and birds, but she has learned to treat that gift like a village oddity, not a destiny. Then Pip, a sharp-tongued royal messenger bird, crashes into her shop and pulls her straight into a palace mystery wrapped in petals, secrets, and one very lost prince. Julian is not what Emilia expects. He is gentle, awkwardly sincere, and far too careful with broken flowers. He claims to be only Julian, but the forest whispers otherwise.
Every path curls around the truth he will not say, and every blossom seems to know more about his heart than he does. To wake the sleeping garden before the festival collapses, Emilia and Julian must follow the voices of flowers, uncover an old promise, and face the expectations waiting behind the palace gates. But the closer Emilia comes to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes to care. Because a flower crown maker can mend stems.
She can free birds from cages. But can she help a prince bloom in his own words-before spring itself turns away?A cozy royal fantasy romance filled with talking flowers, mischievous birds, a magical palace garden, slow-burn sweetness, and a spring festival love story for readers who enjoy clean romantasy, fairy-tale kingdoms, and tender prince-and-commoner romance.
