### Appears in

Bleeding Hearts

**Jomilee** is a District 6 tribute in the 125th Hunger Games, as portrayed in Hunger Games: Bleeding Hearts. Despite being from a historically weak District, Jomilee is remembered for being one of the strongest non-Career tributes in the Games, and for her brief encounter with Soren Murdock and his allies. She narrates three chapters in Bleeding Hearts (Chapters 13, 24, and 35), along with a small portion of Chapter 16.

### Pre-Games

Prior to entering the Arena, Jomilee is seen minimally, despite being noted by Lacie Greenly as one of the strongest tributes.

Jomilee is seen for the first time following the announcement of Training Scores, when she discusses them with her allies. Jomilee's allies are introduced here - according to Jomilee, she stuck with her District partner, Marnie. At lunch on the first day of Training, they were joined by Della from District 3, and they were joined soon after by Acacia from District 9. The group is disappointed by their low scores - Jomilee receives the highest score in the group, receiving a score of 10, while Marnie, Della, and Casey score a 5, 6, and 7, respectively. Jomilee's Training Score is one of the highest, and it puts her on-par with Career tribute Felix and Leon, her District partner.

After Jomilee's meeting with her allies, she returns to her District's suite to find her mentor, Gear Montgomery, being berated by District 11 mentor Jackson Mendoza. This is because of Leon's treatment of Angelica. Jomilee reveals that although there are two District 6 mentors, Irma Bradshaw is too old and weak to mentor, meaning that Gear takes over all of the mentoring responsibilities. This means that the District 6 tributes are less prepared than the other tributes because their lack of mentors.

At the tribute interviews, Angelica mostly ignores Jomilee's interview, but she does note that Jomilee mostly talked about her high Training Score. When Leon finishes his interview and joins Jomilee at the top of the stage, Angelica notices that Jomilee ignores him completely, indicating that she doesn't agree with his behavior in Training.

### The Games

#### The Bloodbath

Jomilee narrates as she enters the Arena and observes her surroundings. She enters the Arena on a forked path shared with Tanner and Cada, and the three tributes are surrounded by a pool of Ultimate Solvent. After this moment, Jomilee is not seen again at the bloodbath. Other than Marnie, none of Jomilee's allies are seen in the Bloodbath.

#### In The Arena

The night after the Bloodbath, Della and Acacia are both seen comforting Jomilee, as Marnie had gone missing in the Bloodbath. Jomilee is distraught later in the night after hearing of Marnie's death, showing how close they were. After the Bloodbath, Jomilee is the only tribute remaining from District 6.

After hearing of Marnie's death, Jomilee and her allies are not seen from Night 1 to Night 3 of the Games, as none of them were narrators. It is assumed that they used survival skills to stay alive during this period.

On Day 4, Jomilee and her allies are seen picking berries from Hydra Vines, a muttation in the Arena. Casey is the first to try the berries, and she quickly drops to the ground. Della and Jomilee begin to panic, trying to revive Casey with Lion Lilies, but the girls' attempt fails, and Casey dies. With Casey and Marnie both gone, only two girls remain in Jomilee's alliance.

The night after Acacia's death, Della and Jomilee are attacked by Rowan, who spears Della through the back. Della screams, warning Jomilee, and Jomilee turns to fight Rowan. In the end, Jomilee avenges Della's death by killing Rowan. However, she sustains a shallow injury to her neck which chops her hair off on one side.

After Jomilee kills Rowan, Ada notes that she is her new target, because she is stronger than Ada thought she was.

A few nights later, Jomilee is approached by the Career alliance of Felix, Victoria, and Tanner. However, she hides against a tree, and they barely miss her, continuing onward to attack the main protagonistic alliance instead.

Jomilee is not seen again until much later in the Games, when she comes across the main protagonistic alliance of Soren, Lacie, Dalia, and Robin. Jomilee overhears them talking about lion lillies, which are needed to cure Soren of his poison. Overhearing this conversation, Jomilee appears to the group, presenting them with her lion lily. In return, she asks that they let her join their group for one night. Jomilee reveals that she is extremely lonely and needs company after the death of her allies. The group agrees to have her for one night.

Jomilee talks with the other tributes, and she reveals more information about herself. She tells them that she worked as a hovercraft manufacturer in District 6. She also reveals that her brother participated in a recent Hunger Games and was killed in the Bloodbath. He was only 13 years old at the time.

Prior to the Feast, Jomilee's odds of winning the Games are shown. Her odds of Victory are 1:8, ranking her eighth-best out of the remaining 14 tributes. This is a departure from her Training score, which ranked her among the best tributes.

#### The Feast

Jomilee is one of the last tributes to arrive at the Feast. By the time she arrives, Rose and Maisy have already lit the pile of supplies on fire with gasoline, so Jomilee is forced to scavenge from the edges of the burning pile. While she does so, she is distracted, and Tanner comes behind her, stabbing her through the back with his longsword. Jomilee dies instantly. She is the last tribute to die in the Feast, placing 12th out of the 36 tributes.

### Post-Death

Jomilee is mentioned a few times following her death, as she had a positive impact on the eventual Victor of the Games, Soren Murdock. After the Games, Soren watches her fight with Rowan, and he winces as she is injured in the battle.

During Soren's Victory Tour, he sees Jomilee's family - a boy 'about her age' and a middle-aged man and woman.
