About this listen
Nineteen-year-old Signa Farrow, orphaned as a baby, has been raised by a string of guardians, each more interested in her wealth than her well-being—and each has met an untimely end. Her last remaining relatives are the Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at the glittering and gloomy estate of Thorn Grove. Thorn Grove’s patriarch, Elijah, mourns his late wife, Lillian, through wild parties and drink, while eldest son Percy grapples for control of the family’s waning reputation and daughter Blythe suffers from the same mysterious illness that killed her mother. And when Lillian’s spirit confronts Signa and claims she was poisoned, Signa realizes that Blythe could be next to die.
Signa’s best chance of uncovering the culprit and solving Lillian’s murder is an alliance with Death himself—the very man she hates most. And Death, that fascinating, dangerous shadow who has never been far from her side, shows her that their connection may be more powerful than she ever dared imagine.

Loren Calla has only ever been ordinary. As a human struggling to survive in a city that caters to the needs of vampires, werewolves, witches, and other supernatural creatures, she always assumed her life would remain simple, predictable, and as safe as her world would allow. Until she barely escapes abduction at the hands of Darkslayers—supernatural bounty hunters that possess the Sight, a magical tracking ability that allows them to see a person's aura—and one of her friends is taken in her place. The abductors are demanding a ransom: Loren's life in exchange for her friend's safe return.

No job is perfect, of course, but even less so when you develop a teeny crush on your terrifying, temperamental, and undeniably hot boss. Don't find evil so attractive, Evie. But just when she's getting used to severed heads suspended from the ceiling and the odd squish of an errant eyeball beneath her heel, Evie suspects this dungeon has a huge rat . . . and not just the literal kind.

I wasn't supposed to be part of the Choosing. I forged my way in, wearing a stranger's face, chasing whispers of my lost sister. I planned to seduce. To manipulate. To survive. But I didn't plan on them. The way they watch me like prey. The way their magic coils around mine like a promise. The way they say my name like they already own it. Each man wants to break me in his own way. Take me in his own way. Together? They might unmake me entirely.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
BELLADONNA tells the story of Signa, a young woman who is seemingly immune to death, which can't be said for the people around her. After unintentionally coming into an inheritance and learning about a family she didn't know she had, Signa encounters a mysterious poisoning and an entity beyond anything she could ever imagine.
Signa is a great character for a number of reasons. Firstly, is that she is believable and has an earnest soul. She simply wants to belong and find a family. She is someone I constantly rooted for, someone who was looking for clues to a deadly mystery, and who wished to find her own power. In contrast, Death is a unique entity who toed the line between impossible power and empathy. I found the chemistry between the two of them to be enjoyable. There are also many side characters who have their own merits and flaws, making for rich relationships and dialogue. Everyone had clear motivations and there were no outright villains.
Given that this is a story of family and bonds, the plot becomes more complicated as the secrets are revealed. I enjoyed seeing how all these lives were connected and how the interactions changed once all the truths came to light.
Despite all the evidence to the contrary, BELLADONNA does have genuine scares and intense moments with spirits. It all leads to some powerful and memorable moments, since the prose is very visual. I didn't expect it to get so dark, though I hardly complained!
The epilogue ends on a cliffhanger and I'm genuinely interested in seeing where things go from here. Highly recommended as a fall read or for anyone who likes a romantic Gothic story with ghosts and layered characters!
