Mélissa Da Costa

Omschrijving

🌹 She came to Paris for work and flowers. Feelings were never part of the plan.

Megan Mercer is a marketing executive set to launch a new dating app in Paris. She is determined to stay focused, composed, and professional.

For years, her most meaningful connection has existed safely at a distance, shared through late-night messages with someone she knows only through words.

A spontaneous trip to Monet's Gardens leads to a run-in with a charming stranger, who feels oddly familiar, and her carefully braided world starts to unravel.

Noah Sinclair lives for code, not chaos. Observant, grounded, and quietly brilliant, he's used to building systems that hold under pressure.

When work brings him face to face with the woman he met among Monet's flowers, he's unsettled by how familiar she feels.

Megan and Noah's in-person connection doesn't arrive in a rush. It builds quietly, through shared observations, long workdays, and conversations that linger longer than intended.

As professional pressure mounts and old instincts resurface, Megan must decide whether to step back into safety or stay where things feel unfinished.

Set against the light and rhythm of Paris, Braided Roses is a clean, closed-door, emotionally intelligent, slow-burn romance set in a contemporary workplace, where logic meets love, and secrets bloom.

A love story about restraint, timing, and the courage it takes to let an unseen connection become real. Written with warmth, layered character growth, and a faith-touched happily-ever-after, it offers intimacy without explicit content and depth without spectacle.

Braided Roses is written for readers who enjoy romance that unfolds in the quiet spaces. This is a slow-burn, closed-door love story told in a lyrical, introspective voice, where connection deepens through observation, presence, and what is left unsaid as much as through dialogue. Grief is given room to exist without being hurried, faith appears gently as grounding rather than instruction, and intimacy grows through patience rather than spectacle.

If you love emotionally intelligent romance that asks you to slow down, feel deeply, and trust the power of restraint, this story was written with you in mind.

Perfect for fans of Jessica Redland, Jenny Proctor, and Savannah Scott. A gentle, closed-door romance centered on emotional healing, friendship, and slow-burn connection.

Content note: Closed-door PG-13 romance. Clean, closed-door contemporary romance with no explicit content. Themes include grief after the loss of a parent, emotional vulnerability, professional pressure, and the slow rebuilding of trust, all handled with care.
