Bloom's power is both a boon and a bane in a place where magic manipulates nature. She lives modestly among the ordinary people, a plant magician with noble blood coursing through her veins, evading a fate she never desired. However, destiny doesn't wait. A crafty nobleman motivated by avarice, Drake Clearbrook will do whatever it takes to obtain her unique magic. Bloom's tenuous tranquility disintegrates as his pursuit heats up, and the ghosts of her past—bereavement, treachery, and a lost love—threaten to pull her down.

Then there is Julian, a nobleman with his own secrets, who puts everything on the line to win her confidence. Bloom must make the painful decision to either use her inner strength or watch her world burn as her adversaries close in and her powers come to life. Her magic had the power to either change or destroy empires in a world of tangled roots and whispered betrayals.

Will Bloom be in charge of the storm or let it overwhelm him?
