A #1 New York Times bestseller! Foxglove is the captivating sequel to the Gothic-infused Belladonna, in which Signa and Death face a supernatural foe determined to tear them apart. A duke has been murdered. The lord of Thorn Grove has been framed. And Fate, the elusive brother of Death, has taken up residence in a sumptuous palace nearby. He's hell-bent on revenge after Death took the life of the woman he loved many years ago...and now he’s determined to have Signa for himself, no matter the cost. Signa and her cousin Blythe are certain that Fate can save Elijah Hawthorne from wrongful imprisonment, if the girls will entertain Fate’s presence. But the more time they spend with him, the more frightening their reality becomes, as Signa exhibits dramatic new powers that link her to Fate’s past. With mysteries and danger around every corner, the cousins must decide whom they can trust as they navigate their futures in high society, unravel the murders that haunt their family, and play Fate’s unexpected games—all with their destinies hanging in the balance. Daring, suspenseful, and seductive, this sequel to Death and Signa's story is as utterly romantic as it is perfectly deadly.

"4.5 ⭐️ I very much enjoyed this sequel to Belladonna. It’s such a great mix of mystery, historical romance, paranormal activity, and gothic inspired fantasy. Signa must once again solve a murder mystery to save her family but this time she must also navigate around Fate, the brother of Death, who has plans of his own. I loved getting some chapters from the POV of Signa’s cousin and I am excited to continue this story when Wisteria comes out later this year. "
"Oh no, this was not good. Second book syndrome alert. We went from an extremely slow burn in book one to a stagnate pile of disappointment in book two. There was even more sidetracking here. Just a lot of making excuses for them not to be together. My friend called it lol when they get together too early the lame excuses and miscommunication will inevitably follow.
I think I am with the majority in thinking Belladonna should have been a standalone. I mean it practically is because there was barely any progression here. We are introduced to Blythe's pov which I enjoyed but I mean I really can't wrack my brain for anything else to say about Foxglove. The side characters were forgettable. And the ending tried to trick me again into buying the next book but it just wasn't good enough."

Meh. I enjoyed the first book, but this one replaced the dark, lush mysteriousness of Belladonna for bickering and mulling over the events of the previous book. In my opinion, the first book’s mystery was more well thought out, and honestly this book didn’t engage my emotions enough to make me care about the romance or any of the relationships. I will probably listen to Wisteria on audio just for something to do while cleaning, but I’m not intrigued or invested. "

"One thing about Adalyn Grace? If you think you know what she has coming, you don’t! This is the second time I’ve been bested by the likes of her and I admit defeat, I should’ve known better! The characters, THE CHARACTERS!!!, the things they’re capable of, the thrills, the ghosts, the mystery and the romance are all nothing short of perfection, not to mention the plot twists are to DIE for (literally, the amount heart attacks I almost had!). Absolutely ADORE these books and cannottttt waittttt for Wisteria!!!!"
