I'm looking for a small-medium size house plant that has pretty flowers

with skylights. I want to place it on a shelf. Thanks for any advice
or suggestions.

Unless you can get that plant a foot away from the skylight, it will
serve no purpose to the plant to be in a bright room. You still have
to get very low light plants.

Rex begonia
Spathaphyllum aka peace lily

Oh, too many to list.
