WELCOME TO BLOOMS is coming from Blue Ink Press, April 14, 2026!
When your name is Daisy, you get used to flower jokes. When your name is Daisy and your family owns a flower shop, your life becomes the joke.
Event planner Daisy Greene never wanted any part of running her family’s flower shop, Blooms by Bert. But when her father is hospitalized, Daisy returns home to help her brother Bud and his girlfriend save the business from closing forever, even though it means leaving a career-making client gala in the hands of a scheming co-worker.
Much to the delight of her overbearing (s)mother, Daisy finds herself increasingly drawn back into the life she’s spent years avoiding. With the help of a quirky cast of characters including an overly optimistic business partner, a phone-stealing bulldog, plus an octogenarian social media star and a nosy neighbor both named Agnes, Daisy is about to learn that there’s no “I” in “flower,” but there is a “we.”
Told with humor and heart (and allergies), Welcome to Blooms is a cozy, feel-good story about family, belonging and what it truly means to bloom where you’re planted.
