She was the first thing the land had loved in centuries.
When Nora Vale arrives in a remote Mojave town to settle her grandfather’s estate, she expects heat, solitude, and a place to unwind.
She doesn’t expect the feeling of being watched… or the way the land seems to pull her in.
Then the dreams begin.
Of a massive figure made of bark and shadow.
Of teeth at her throat. Hands on her skin. A voice like wind through stone.
It isn’t just in her head.
Something inhuman is waking beneath the desert—and it’s been waiting for her.
As the line between dream and reality dissolves, Nora finds herself drawn to an ancient power, tangled in a sacred ritual, and in the arms of an untamed guardian.
Steamy, mythic, and dangerously romantic, it’s perfect for readers who like their monsters massive, their love stories feral, and their desert nights burning.
Beneath the Desert Bloom is a standalone monster romance and the first in the Of Beasts and Bloom series—a lush saga of transformation, desire, and the creatures who guard forgotten wild places.
