Bloom by Brooke Harper

I’ve weathered the storms.
Now, it’s my time to bloom.
I came too close to losing Nikolai, and it almost destroyed me.
I’m not sure why, but it’s getting harder to hate him every day. Something is blossoming between us—something more than lust—and it scares me. It’s more powerful, more magnetic than I can explain, and that makes it dangerous.
For both of us.
To make matters worse, Nikolai’s driven by more than revenge now. He still wants to kill my father and rule over the coast, but with our enemies closing in, he’s just as determined to keep me safe.
He says he’ll do whatever it takes, even if that means making me his forever.
To save my life, I may have to let the man who ruined me into my heart. But how can a rose bloom when surrounded by so much darkness?
