If I could be sarcastic, I'd say that I was thrilled for him.
But I can't.
Because I can't lie.
I'm cursed to tell the truth.
Cursed from birth to always tell the truth, magical florist Felicity 'Fliss' Farrow chooses her words carefully and avoids trouble. But when she receives an anonymous request for a mysterious flower, her quest leads her directly into trouble's path, to Willoh Vane.
Fliss knows the outcast - yet teasingly handsome - sorcerer is rumoured to have used dark magic to corrupt the northern forest five years ago. She's witnessed the resulting feud with Prince Bastion, whom her best friend, Card, is soon to marry. Despite the divided loyalty she feels, Fliss reluctantly accepts Will's help with gathering more rare flowers and finds herself increasingly drawn to him.
As the royal wedding approaches, Fliss fears the flowers she's delivered are intended for a sinister purpose. But with her warnings ignored, can she and Will save the kingdom from disaster, and ultimately discover what Fliss has sought for so long - the truth behind her curse?
'A must-read for any fan of cosy romantasy, with a romance that slowly plants itself in your heart and blooms with a wild flourish' GRYFFIN MURPHY, author of Twig's Traveling Tomes

Reviews
Prepare to be enchanted. Wildflower is a lovely respite from reality, featuring a charming cast of characters, snappy dialogue, and so much heart. The prose is gorgeous - Jenkinson wields such lyricism in her pen, I can hardly believe this is a debut. The romance between Fliss and Will is achingly tender, unfurling gorgeously, petal by petal. A book to treasure!
An irresistibly wonderful story about love, curses, and truth, WILDFLOWER is as delightful as an entire field of flowers!
Absolutely charming! With lovable characters, a unique floral magic system, and a story that tugs on your heartstrings, Wildflower is a true delight. A cosy read when I needed it the most!
Wildflower is a delightful bouquet of a book with a little something for everyone- flower magic and lore; powerful sorcerers and dark curses; outcasts, brigands, and royalty; and, dreamy love interests and fierce friendships, all set in a queer norm world full of hope and healing. What a treat to pass a cosy afternoon with these pages!
