Blooming Violets, Dead Exes

Blooming Violets, Dead Exes
A novella by Tristan Marie
Violet Flores doesn't fall in love-she casts for it. Raised in a haunted mansion, fluent in Latin and longing, she spends her teenage years sharpening her power alongside Carla, a deadpan witch with jars of herbs and a switchblade rosary. Together, they navigate haunted showers, cursed boys, and the kind of grief that blooms in secret.
But Violet's spells have side effects. Her exes don't just leave-they obsess, unravel, and sometimes die. One haunts her vape pens. Another tried to write her name into the sky. All she ever wanted was to be wanted. Now, her power keeps asking for payment.
Lyrical, and laced with dark humor, Blooming Violets, Dead Exes is a coming-of-power story about obsessive love, complicated friendship, and the ghosts we keep-both literal and not. Perfect for fans of The Craft, The Virgin Suicides, and Heathers.
