As a druid consultant for the police and a sentinel for the hidden magical underworld, Lily Harper is used to walking the line between neon lights and shadows. But when a brutal ritual murder collides with the theft of the Tempest Blade, a routine investigation turns into an apocalyptic countdown.
Adding to the problem, Lily’s backup includes a politically ambitious ex-lover, a cryptic high fae, and a magical council breathing down her neck for answers.

As the investigation deepens, the chaos spills into her personal life. Lily is desperate to protect Emiko—a brilliant ink-mage whose Sumi-e art is as breathtaking as it is powerful. But Lily's instinct to push people away is pushing her relationship to the brink. To crack the case and save the city from a resurrected god, she can no longer afford to play the lone wolf. Can she find it in herself to trust before Midsummer burns her life away?

Note: Blood and Bloom is an urban fantasy novel featuring a prominent romance subplot. It contains a few explicit romantic scenes (including sapphic and fantasy pairings) that are central to the characters' growth and development. Intended for mature readers.
