Novels

Fleur is a tender, bittersweet coming-of-age novel about the quietest member of a loud and chaotic family.

Fleurette Bradley has always been the afterthought—small, shy, and overlooked. In a household dominated by dazzling personalities—a glamorous mother clinging to past fame, and a fiery sister battling her own demons—Fleurette survives by staying out of the way. But invisibility comes at a cost.

Fleurette is defined by what she lacks: presence, ambition, her mother’s approval. Yet beneath her silence lies a deep emotional intelligence and a quiet resilience. As she silently bears witness to her family’s unraveling, Fleurette begins a slow, aching transformation—from supporting character to the author of her own life.
