He Loves Me Not

Sumi is on top of the world. Well, as on top as one can be after learning a relative one never met has died, leaving one a small fortune. Taking this as a sign to follow her dreams, quitting her job, moving to Cambric Creek, and opening a flower shop is the obvious move. Applying for franchise ownership with a flower conglomerate seems so easy—they provide the equipment, the distribution contracts, and all she needs to do is front the money. But she didn't realize chasing after her dream might cause someone else to lose hold of their own.

Ranar never wanted to inherit the family business. There's an enormous pressure to keep his family business going . . . but as it is, brick and mortar flower shops are a notion of a bygone era. When an online flower conglomerate opens a shop in Cambric Creek, Ranar knows it's only a matter of time before he's forced to close the door. It doesn’t matter how pretty or how friendly the owner seems—she represents everything wrong in the industry, in his world. Sumi knows there's room for two flower shops in Cambric Creek, if only the owner of The Perfect Petal wasn't such an infuriatingly handsome jerk. When she joins an online server for local business owners, she decides it's the perfect opportunity to take Ranar down . . . if she doesn't wind up falling for him first.

Contains mature themes.
