## About this story

Every night after closing, the plants at Rosa's shop become human.

You took the temporary job for the easy money. Instead, you find yourself drawn into a hidden world of living magic, impossible secrets, and people who were never meant to exist.

But someone is hunting the shop. Damien, an elegant collector with his own connection to its magic, wants to claim everything growing there for himself. As danger closes in, you'll have to decide who to trust, who to protect, and whether you can fall in love with someone who has never been human at all.

Midnight at the Plant Shop is a romantic urban fantasy visual novel about slow-burn attraction, dangerous magic, found family, and the strange, beautiful things that grow when someone chooses to stay.
