She knows Phantom wants to keep his identity a secrets are the one game that Frankie won’t play.

 

He’ll learn all of her secret desires…and she’ll Bloom

 

This book had my attention from the very first page! I was not sure if I would be able to follow the action since I did not read book one in the series (Blush), but the characters and settings are different so this is a great stand-alone title that can be read independently!

In addition to the spicy build-up and BDSM scenes, there is an element of sweetness to Bloom that I was not expecting. The push-and-pull between the main characters is soooo sexy, and they connect on an emotional level that I did not anticipate from the book blurb.

The characters also had real-life struggles and challenges that are often absent in this type of story, so it was great to enjoy fully fleshed-out protaganists. I absolutely loved Bloom, will be going back to read Blush, and am definitely looking forward to book three in the series!

Note: genitalia is described as “pink,” which may cause diverse readers to feel excluded from the narrative.
