Daisy has spent her whole life feeling like she takes up too much space.
Living under her father's roof means enduring constant reminders that her weight makes her unworthy-unlovable. The tension between them is thick, and Daisy longs for someone who sees her as beautiful instead of broken.
Then she meets Matthew.
Charming. Attentive. Safe. A self-proclaimed gardener who says he has a gift for growing beautiful things. For the first time, Daisy feels chosen. Watered. Cherished. When she moves into his home, it feels like the beginning of her bloom.
But some gardens hide rot beneath the soil.
Matthew doesn't just grow flowers-he collects them; vulnerable women who he blossoms into his "flowers".
Now Daisy must decide: survive and become part of the garden... or fight to uproot the man who mistook her pain for weakness.
Because even the most delicate flower can grow thorns.
