A Secret In The Garden (The Dark Manor Chronicles #1)

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–drives to the manor and begs 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.
