Bloom Town: Genesis

Bloom Town, Book 1

By: Ally North

Narrated by: Quinn Riley

June, 1852. A preacher's daughter with a secret. An outlaw running from the gallows. A love story spanning oceans and deserts and years.

When Abby Proctor is kidnapped from a train in the middle of the desert halfway to her new life in California, she makes a promise to herself—she will escape. Because there's a reason Abby is leaving Iowa and all its oppressions behind, and she refuses to be someone's prisoner again. Especially when that someone is the infamous female outlaw Joey "JT London" Taylor, Abby's brash, brooding, and inconveniently beautiful captor.

But as Abby plots her escape, she stumbles upon a larger conspiracy at play behind her kidnapping—a complicated revelation considering the feelings she's been having for Joey, who might not be the ruthless criminal everyone believes her to be. And when Abby realizes it's all connected—her kidnapping, the secrets she left behind in Iowa, even her plans in California—she has to decide between returning to a life of obedience and unhappiness, or trusting an enigmatic outlaw who is bound for the gallows.

so so good !!

usually I greatly prefer to traditionally read but this is the first book that I actually prefer the audio version of!! great narration and 10/10 plot

Excellent reader

Great plot and characters. Some unrealistic bits but mostly very good erotica. Dialog pretty cute.

One of the best sapphic books of the year

This book is DEFINITELY one I’ll be recommending to friends who always seem to come to me for sapphic/queer recommendations. It’s SO good.

Amazing

This was a recommendation and I'm so sad that exodus is not on here already. I might have to go buy physical books the cliff hanger leaves you needing more.

Great plot, One of my favorites

I really love this series. Starts off with action and have the most riveting love stories ever. From the beginning to the end I was engrossed in this story. Finished it in a day. I love the characters and the plot is great. Most read!
