Once Upon a Rose (Once Upon a Time in Colorado #3)
Monique Brasher
Some love stories wait quietly until it’s time to bloom.

I learned the hard way that loving Flynn Jackson means getting left behind.
Eight years ago, he kissed me under fireworks and promised we’d talk at sunrise. He never showed.
Now he’s back in Storywood Ridge—famous, charming, and starring on a reality dating show designed to give him a wife. Somehow, I’m not just filling the house with roses… I’m part of the experiment.
I know better than to hope for anything. I’ve built a quiet life I can control. A café, a town that knows me, walls that keep my heart safe.
But Flynn has always been the one thing I can’t protect myself from.
FlynnEveryone thinks I’m here to find a wife.
What they don’t know is that the only woman who’s ever mattered to me already lives here—and she’s standing on the other side of the cameras.
Harper Evans has always been home. The girl I left behind when choosing my career felt safer than choosing love.
I’m supposed to date other women. Follow the script. Give the audience a love story.
But every time I look at her, I remember the one I walked away from.
This time, I can't pretend it didn’t matter.
This book was previously published as Love at the Flower Cafe, but has been altered and expanded to fit the fairytale it was originally meant to be.
Once Upon a Rose is a cozy, closed-door (light) magical realism winter romance featuring brother's best friend, second chances, small-town charm, holiday magic, opposites attract, a fairytale themed reality show, water kisses, and a Rapunzel vibes that will have you grinning the whole time.
