About this book
*This limited deluxe edition includes gorgeous designed edges and spot gloss* From USA Today bestselling author Jeneane O'Riley comes the first in a series of deliciously dark and whimsical standalone romances. Some secrets were never meant to be unearthed. Perched on a windswept cliff, Blackwood Manor looms like a dark monument to a mysterious family. Behind its grand iron gates, one part of the estate has been left to rot since the tragic death of Hester Blackwood: the once-glorious conservatory, now choked by vines and shattered glass. The rest of the family is gone―only her brooding son, Jasper, remains, the heir to a weapons empire. Desperate to save her job and out of options, botanist Eliza Arnold makes a bold gamble―drive to the manor and beg the elusive millionaire for a donation. Jasper agrees...on one chilling condition: restore the conservatory. Alone. No help. No leaving. But the manor is not empty. As Eliza battles thorns and secrets, a magnetic tension builds between her and Jasper―dark, dangerous, and impossible to ignore. And something else stirs among the roots and ruins...whispers in the walls, confusing disturbances, and a presence watching her every move. The deeper Eliza digs, the more she uncovers a garden of grief, longing…and desire. Because in Blackwood Manor, even buried things can bloom again.

What readers are saying
KyrstenMUST READ! scary ghost depictions, plants, grumpy mmc, toxic parents, murder mystery, romance!
"This is a MUST READ. On of my top 5 favorite books of all time! I loved this book. The characters are very well developed. The plot is so intriguing. The environment its well painted. The spice is full of banter and dominance. I feel like the audio was okay but for this one reading thr book was better. Of they did a new audio with a male actor who had a lottery more emotion in his voice it could be better but he felt a little robotic. The paperback is beautiful but im hoping for a hardback that will hold up better! ["

Ashley HGothic murder mystery!
"I really enjoyed Jeneane's vivid imagery throughout this story. But I expected nothing less from such a wonderful storyteller. The elusive mysteries really suck you in. Is it all connected? Or Are Eliza's gut instincts separate mysteries?! Absolutely engrossing and when the banter picks up at 25%, cash me out, I'm done. Hooked. The banter in this story was delightful and I really loved the "scr*w it" moments from Jasper and Eliza. I started out trying to take notes and got completely lost in the story. Murder mysteries are my favorite and it added just the right amount of suspense to this gothic romance. ["
