Anderson in Bloom by Jennifer Dugan

You can run from your past—but sometimes it shows up holding flowers and a memoir contract.

Anderson in Bloom follows former child star Anderson “Andy” Ducharme, who left Hollywood behind for a quieter life working in a flower shop in coastal New England. Far from toxic fame and industry chaos, Andy has carefully built a life away from the spotlight—until her ex-girlfriend and former costar, Nikki Price, arrives in town planning to write a revealing tell-all memoir.

Forced back into each other’s orbit, old chemistry and unresolved feelings quickly resurface. Jennifer Dugan delivers a witty, emotionally messy second-chance rom-com filled with sharp banter, queer joy, and small-town charm. With its blend of celebrity drama, healing, and romantic tension, this story explores identity, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to face the past.

Perfect for readers who love:
• enemies-to-lovers romance
• second-chance romance
• LGBTQ+ romance
• celebrity / Hollywood drama
• cozy coastal small-town settings
