Editor's Note:
The Risk it Takes to Bloom is an illustrated collection of ten sexy stories for the queer, the kinky, the unconventional, and the underrepresented. These stories are character-driven and heartfelt, oftentimes navigating the meeting place of neurodiversity and insecurity, religious trauma recovery and the courage to be your most authentic self. Among these provocative stories, a newly-open married couple meets an unexpected unicorn at a Pride weekend drag show, an acupuncturist invites a client to her home for a private session of pleasurable pain, and two lesbian co-eds sneak into a library for an erotic literature-fueled tryst. Love and compassion lace each plot, whether the characters have just met, or have been partnered for years.
