Iris inherited fifty percent of a failing flower shop from the aunt who rejected her six years ago for being transgender. The other fifty percent belongs to Delaney Frost-a reclusive carpenter Iris has never met.
The terms: six months of forced partnership to save the business or lose everything.
For Iris, the shop is proof she was worthy of love all along. For Delaney, it's a nightmare-visibility destroyed her career once, and she's spent four years hiding to survive. They're opposites in every way except the grief they share and the transness they understand.
But between purple hyacinths that mean I'm sorry and red carnations that mean my heart aches for you, something blooms. The shop starts thriving. The partnership feels like more than business. And both women face an impossible choice: stay safe and alone, or risk everything for a chance at home.
Iris must decide if being seen means being worthy-or if she's been worthy all along. Delaney must choose between the safety of shadows and the terrifying beauty of being loved in the light.
The Apartment Above the Florist is a slow-burn sapphic romance about trans women finding family, building community, and discovering that the bravest thing you can do is let yourself be known.
