Sinopsis

The history of beavers and gardeners had been a history of wars and battles. The dam, which dammed the water and protected the beavers' nests, flooded the gardeners' gardens and carrot fields. The dark water river, both a protector and a destroyer, teared the humans and animals apart.
 
Beavers came into conflict with gardeners, gardeners came into conflict with gardeners… Both wanted to protect their property and their homes. It was clear from the beginning that someone had to suffer. In a war without winners, they were not the only ones who fell under the curses of the past.
 
In battles with animals, old wounds that had not yet healed from the brutal post-war years were mixed. Not only the neighbours and their children but also the beaver family, who tried to settle on the banks of a dark water river, fell victim to hostile relations between people.

Be Strong. Be Fierce. Be Immortal. 
That’s what the handsome, athletic stranger promised when he invited Crystal Lunsford to his high-end gym, Mount Olympus, known for its signature sports drink, Ambrosia—a drink that offers an intoxicating surge of energy and an obsession with working out. It’s exactly the kind of escape Crystal craves to outrun her dark spiral of self-destruction and the memory of her ex Jace’s cruel, echoing taunts. Jace is dead, but his hateful words—"Fat pig. Fat pig.”—still claw at her mind. 
But beneath the gym’s glossy exterior lies a darkness she can’t ignore. Mount Olympus seems too perfect to be real—and maybe it is. Members are behaving oddly. Vanishing. Her memories are fading and her addiction is spiraling out of control. With her life—and her humanity—at stake, can Crystal triumph over her inner demons in order to escape the grip of Mount Olympus—or will she lose more than just weight? 
This new edition of Ambrosia includes "Through a Glass, Darkly," a bonus story that bridges the gap to its upcoming sequel. Discover the chilling origins of the next antagonist and the obsession that will shape the darkness to come.
