Book Description
Alice Douglas stands across the street from Tranquility with a letter, a kitchen knife, and a broken heart. She is not sure what to expect from the Manhattan theater, or Aunt Lilith, the black sheep family member who owns it, but has nowhere else to turn. Alice quickly learns that Tranquility is not quite a theater, not quite a nightclub, not quite a bar. It is a place where orchids, dahlias, and chrysanthemums grow in the walls, where butterflies in paintings flutter their wings, and where the air smells different to each person that visits. Aunt Lilith tells Alice to listen. The people that work at Tranquility—the singers, the bartender, the receptionist—work there for a reason. For some that work at Tranquility, it is their forever home, and for others, their stay is temporary. At the end of the week, Alice must return to college. But no one leaves Tranquility unchanged. + three new stories set in the When the Flowers Breathe universe, an author interview, mocktails, and more!

Having spent two days contemplating the deep love she feels for her partner Barrett, Italian artisan dress designer, Caterina Mazzini, seduces a stranger in her own home.
