And by then, it was too late.

Iris moves to the small town of Thornwick after inheriting her eccentric grandmother's property, including a sprawling greenhouse filled with rare and seemingly impossible plant varieties. When she touches the plants, she begins hearing whispers - the flowers are trying to tell her something urgent. The town's mysterious benefactor, Damien, appears at her door claiming her grandmother promised him access to the greenhouse. He's desperate because the plants in his hidden garden - which have sustained his humanity for centuries by feeding on moonlight instead of blood - are withering. Only someone with Iris's rare gift can save them. As Iris learns to interpret the flowers' messages, she discovers they're warning about an ancient curse. Damien's maker, the vampire Evangeline, cursed the garden out of jealousy when Damien chose botanical sustenance over embracing his dark nature. The curse will kill both the plants and Damien unless it's broken by the summer solstice. Working together in moonlit gardens, Iris and Damien develop feelings for each other.

The climax involves a confrontation with Evangeline in the original cursed garden, where Iris's connection with the plants becomes the key to not just breaking the curse, but transforming it into something that protects rather than destroys.

Nur weil ich unachtsam war und vergessen hatte, die Gefährtin meines Gefährten zurückzubringen, ließ ich sie drei Stunden allein in der Wildnis. In rasender Wut warf er mich in einen ausgetrockneten Brunnenschacht am Rande des Niemandslands. „Du solltest selbst einmal das Leid kosten, das Belinda ertragen musste.“ Der Schacht war so tief und eng, dass ich mich nur zusammengerollt in meiner Wolfsform hineinzwängen konnte. Ich bekam kaum Luft. Ich flehte ihn an, gestand meinen Fehler und bat um Hilfe – doch alles, was ich erhielt, war seine eiskalte Verurteilung. „Bereue deine Schuld. Nur wenn du aus dieser Strafe lernst, wirst du begreifen, was es heißt, eine wahre Luna zu sein.“ Er befahl, einen schweren Felsblock über dem Brunnenschacht zu platzieren. Ich brüllte verzweifelt, klammerte mich immer wieder an der Wand empor – nur um erneut in die Tiefe zu stürzen. Die Wände waren zerkratzt von meinen verzweifelten Krallenhieben. Bis meine trockene Kehle keinen Laut mehr hervorbringen konnte. Erst zwei Wochen später, als er das Geburtstagsgeschenk sah, das ich für ihn bestellt hatte, wurde sein Herz einen Moment lang weich. Er beschloss, meine Strafe zu beenden. Doch er wusste nicht, dass mein Körper am Grund des Brunnens längst von Insekten und Schlangen bis zur Unkenntlichkeit zerfressen worden war.
