Bloom Town: Genesis

By: North, Ally

Ally North's viral BookTok sensation follows a preacher's daughter with a secret, an outlaw running from the gallows, and a thrilling sapphic love story spanning vast oceans and wide deserts.

June 1852. When Abby Proctor is kidnapped from a train in the middle of the desert halfway to her new life in California, she makes a promise to herself--she will escape. Abby is leaving Iowa and all its oppressions behind for a reason, and she refuses to be someone's prisoner again. Especially when that someone is the infamous female outlaw Joey "JT London" Taylor--Abby's brash, brooding, and inconveniently beautiful captor.

As Abby plots her escape, she stumbles upon a larger conspiracy behind her kidnapping--a complicated revelation considering her growing feelings for Joey, who might not be the ruthless criminal everyone believes her to be. Suddenly Abby doesn't want to go back to the confines of her religious father or her suffocating husband.

Then Abby realizes it's all connected--her kidnapping, the secrets she left behind in Iowa, even her plans in California--and she must decide between returning to a life of obedience and unhappiness or trusting an enigmatic outlaw bound for the gallows.
