The Purple African Violet, known as Saintpaulia ionantha ‘Devotion’ in its vibrant purple with white edge form, is a beloved and iconic houseplant known for its charming appearance and long-lasting blooms. With soft, velvety foliage and elegant, bicolor flowers that bloom in tight clusters. 

The African violet is prized for its long-lasting blooms and wide range of flower colors, particularly the classic, blue-flowered varieties, as well as striking burgundy, soft pinks, crisp whites, and colorful mixed-color blends.  

The African violet varieties stand out in any indoor setting. Its compact size and ability to thrive on windowsills and tabletops make it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts, particularly those who appreciate color and form in small spaces. 

The foliage is one of its standout features: soft, deep green, and covered with fine hairs that give the plant its characteristic velvety texture.

The African violet purple Leaves are typically rounded with slightly scalloped edges, growing in symmetrical rosettes.

Mature African Violets purple stays compact, typically reaching 12 inches wide and up to 8 inches tall, making them ideal for small containers or decorative planters.

The African violets bloom is semi-double or double in form, with rich purple petals rimmed by crisp white edges, a stunning contrast that feels both elegant and cheerful.

A unique aspect of this plant is its ability to flower in lower light compared to many other blooming houseplants, making it especially suitable for apartments or homes with filtered light.

African Violets bloom repeatedly throughout the year under proper conditions, especially when grown indoors with consistent care. Purple African Violet flowers attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies due to their bright color and sweet nectar, making them a popular choice for gardeners looking to attract pollinators.  

When it comes to care, the purple African Violets require bright, indirect light, ideally from east- or north-facing windows. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while low light will hinder blooming. For soil, use a light, fast-drained, specialized  potting mix, opens in a new tab that retains some moisture but doesn’t stay soggy. Watering should be done when the top inch of soil feels dry—typically every 5–7 days during the growing season. These plants are sensitive to cold water on their leaves, so bottom watering or using room-temperature water is preferred.  

When grown indoors, they grow best in temperatures between 65–75°F and humidity around 50–60%.

Though primarily grown indoors in the United States, they can be placed outdoors in Southern Florida and Hawaii, during warm months in USDA zones 10–11, as long as they’re shielded from direct sun and temperature extremes.

According to ASPCA, the African Violet Saintpaulia, is non-toxic to humans and pets, which adds to their appeal as safe indoor greenery. When planted in a group or as a mixed arrangement with other African Violet hybrids of different colors, the contrast in blooms and textures can create a vibrant and living floral mosaic.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.
