Are you looking for a book that's both dark and romantic? Not necessarily a dark romance, but a story with a dark plot? Do you enjoy books about magic, witchcraft, war and politics? This book combines all these things.

--------

Belladonna awakens in an unfamiliar place with no memory of who she is, where she is, or how she ended up there. Frantically, she tries to escape the room, but finds the door locked. Hours later, a tall, handsome boy picks the lock and forces her to sneak out of the place with him. Confused and unsure of what to do, she decides to follow him, and they run together until they are far from the building.

After their escape, a shocking truth gets revealed: Belladonna is the anchor of two parallel universes, and the government intends to sacrifice her to wipe out the other universe. In recent years, chaos has erupted: cars, trees, and buildings have been disappearing and reappearing, and the weather has become unpredictable. This phenomenon, known as The Error, has led the government to take Belladonna hostage, to sacrifice her to wipe out the other universe. A war has erupted between America and Russia, each nation desperate for the power of the Anchor.

Riddled by grief and hatred, she claws her way to the top of the vampire world, seizing control of one of the oldest and deadliest clans in existence. Her new name - Belladonna - is a symbol of both her allure and her poison. Feared across the supernatural world for her brutal yet calculated conquests, Belladonna doesn't beg. She doesn't bow. She commands. So when a beta wolf arrives seeking her help to rescue his kidnapped mate, she doesn't offer mercy - she strikes a bargain. His loyalty. His service. His soul if she demands it - his body, a given. He despises her. She's amused. And the world will burn if either of them blinks first. Caught between power, pleasure, and the dangerous edges of love, this is a story where love doesn't bloom in beautiful places - but in corrupt gardens.
