A crumbling manor. A forbidden garden. A secret too deep to stay buried. When a gifted horticulturist is offered an exclusive position to restore the overgrown grounds of a secluded European estate, it seems like the perfect escape. Lured by the promise of peace, beauty, and the chance to revive a once-legendary garden, she accepts—ready to lose herself in the work and forget the life she left behind. But nothing at the manor is what it seems. From the moment she arrives, the estate reveals a haunting personality of its own. The winding corridors whisper with silence. The sprawling grounds seem to shift when she's not looking. Servants vanish without explanation, and doors are locked that should never have been closed. Presiding over it all is the reclusive lord of the manor—a man both magnetic and unreadable. Charismatic yet cold, generous yet guarded, he holds his secrets close, and no one dares ask questions. Especially about the research that once took place in the greenhouse… or what lies buried beneath the ivy-covered stones. As her work in the gardens begins to awaken not only the dormant landscape but something far more dangerous beneath, tensions rise. Passion flares. Rules blur. The line between protector and predator becomes harder to define. And with each step deeper into the manor's shadowy history, she finds herself entangled in a mystery far beyond overgrown hedges and botanical blueprints. There are things growing at the manor that defy science. Things best left undisturbed. But curiosity is a powerful lure. So is desire. What begins as a job soon becomes a test of loyalty, instinct, and survival. Surrounded by deception, drawn toward danger, she must decide what she's willing to risk—for the truth, for herself, and for a connection that may cost her everything. Naughty by Nature is a slow-burn romantic thriller woven with lush natural imagery, atmospheric tension, and irresistible chemistry. Perfect for fans of gothic suspense, forbidden attraction, and strong heroines who dig deep—literally and emotionally. In these tangled gardens, nothing is innocent. Not the land. Not the legacy. And certainly not love.
