The Unplanned Orchid
Daria Kay
Author’s Blurb:
When Lucas Benson returns to his mobile home in the blue-collar town of Parkton, North Carolina, after a two-month military stint, the last thing he expects to find is his girlfriend tangled up with someone else. With his ego in shambles, Lucas just wants to disappear from the small-town gossip mill.
Enter Edith Cowan—a quiet, quirky, new adult who is anything but forgettable. She’s spent most of her life in her older sister’s shadow, and now the sisters run their family’s flower shop together in town. But when her long-time secret crush, Lucas, walks through the shop’s door, the spark between them is undeniable—and he draws out a newfound confidence she never knew she had.
What starts as awkward, romantic-comedy-worthy encounters quickly turns into something deeper—something real. But one mistake shatters their fragile connection, forcing them to face the one thing neither expected: each other, again and again, in a town far too small to hide. And it’s the perfect setup for Lucas to become a beloved groveling hero.
Filled with Southern charm, steamy tension, and the messy beauty of falling for someone you shouldn’t, The Unplanned Orchid is a blue-collar, small-town romantic comedy and second-chance romance about self-discovery, growth, and the kind of love that blooms wild when you least expect it.
