Chrysanthemum

Step into a world where quiet gardens hide extraordinary secrets-and growing up feels just as magical as it does terrifying. Chrysanthemum never asked for adventure. She just wanted a peaceful afternoon tending her garden, a small refuge from the looming uncertainty of seventh grade. But everything changes when the powerful Asterflight family arrives-dragon nobility whose presence transforms her home into the center of attention in Sunset Town. Suddenly, Chrysanthemum is caught between two worlds: one filled with ordinary worries about friendship, identity, and growing up, and another shaped by ancient magic, unspoken rules, and creatures far more powerful than she understands. As tensions rise and expectations mount, friendships begin to shift, first impressions falter, and Chrysanthemum finds herself questioning whether she's enough for the life unfolding around her. Standing at the edge of a world she never imagined she'd touch, she must navigate fear, loyalty, and the quiet, aching uncertainty of who she is becoming.In this cozy fantasy filled with lush nature, magical creatures, and the fragile in-between of growing up, the most powerful magic might not be dragons at all-but the courage to face the moment before everything changes.
