Summary: There are a few things that Emma Swan is absolutely certain about; no morning is tolerable without at least one cup of coffee, all marriage is a sham, and if a stupidly handsome guy walks into her tiny flower shop with a massive order for flower arrangements six weeks before a wedding, he’s damn well going to have to help her.

A/N: Finaly, my CSLB is here! It feels like so long ago when I started this little project, and I’m excited to finally set it free into the world. I want to thank my phenomenal artists who gifted me with the most incredible pieces of artwork for this story; the above painting is by the magnificent @ladyciaramiggles, and the three accompanying image sets by the wonderful @captainodonoghue depicting our favourite lovebirds can be found here, here, and here. And, of course, where would I be without my beta, @wellhellotragic? Thank you all for all of your encouragement and kind words! It’s been a great time 🙂 

Enjoy!
