The Garden Chose Her: A carnivorous sanctuary that protects its own-and feeds on those who threaten them. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798247571933)

THE GARDEN DOESN'T JUST GROW. IT HUNTS.

Elara Marsh is running for her life. Escaping a controlling marriage that nearly broke her, she seeks refuge in the one place she remembers feeling safe: Greenrot Cottage, a crumbling inheritance hidden deep in the Louisiana swamp.

But the cottage isn't empty. It is surrounded by a garden that defies botany and logic-a lush, sentient ecosystem of carnivorous flora that hums with awareness.

To the outside world, Greenrot is a hazard to be bulldozed. To Elara, it is a fortress. As she tends to the orchids that crave music and the pitcher plants that demand meat, she discovers a terrifying truth: the garden is bonding with her. It senses her fear. It shares her rage. And it is preparing for war.

When her abusive ex-husband arrives with legal threats and heavy machinery, he expects a broken woman he can drag back home. He doesn't know that the rules of the human world don't apply past the property line.

In the swamp, the only law is survival of the fittest. And the garden has chosen its side.

A visceral, haunting Southern Gothic novel about the things we bury, the things that grow back, and finding safety in the monstrous.
