SCARS OF BLOOM BY ORDINA M. CHANDA

SCARS OF BLOOM is a poetic psychological romance woven through grief, secrets, survival, healing and the kind of love that leaves permanent scars.

Melodin and Dahlia are two souls shaped by loss, brought into each other’s lives by William, the man who quietly saved them from the ruins of their pasts. Melodin finds refuge in art; Dahlia finds hers in poetry and nature. Through sketches, letters, and words they are never quite brave enough to say aloud, an unexpected bond begins to bloom between them.

But some wounds were never meant to stay buried.

As fragments of their past begin to surface, they uncover a disturbing connection to Lucien. A man whose presence has haunted their families in ways they never understood. What begins as a story of art, friendship, and silent affection slowly becomes a descent into secrets, manipulation, grief, and revenge.

SCARS OF BLOOM explores mental health, trauma, love, loss, revenge, and emotional survival through poetry, art, and storytelling asking what happens when the people who save us are also connected to the scars we carry.

Because sometimes, healing does not mean becoming who you were before.

Sometimes, it means learning how to bloom with the scars still showing.

Perfect for readers who loved emotional, poetic stories filled with pain, healing, art, and unforgettable characters.

This book was created to encourage emotional resilience, deeper thinking, and conversations around mental health among young people and students.
