Inside the story
## Why this story had to exist
Every book on IndieBookStories.com starts with a feeling. For **The Midnight Bloom**, it was the sense that something important was being forgotten – a dream, a choice, a version of yourself that never quite made it into daylight.
In this origin story, Seraphina Lux shares:
- The real-world moment that sparked the first scene
- The fears, questions and "what ifs" that shaped the characters
- How indie publishing gave them permission to tell the story their way
## What readers can expect
If you pick up **The Midnight Bloom**, expect:
- A dark fairy tale for modern times.
- A tone that feels 7 minutes deep-dive rather than a quick skim
- A journey that stays with you long after the last page
