Queen of Spades
Queen of Spades - A paranormal why-choose romance novel, and Book 4 in the Monsters in the Darkness series.
Betrayed, heartbroken, and left behind.
Grace is left reeling after the botched peace attempt, her mind as shattered as her heart. The four dangerous, enigmatic men she'd grown to trust have forsaken her, depriving her of the one thing they have promised. Safety. Broken and battered, she has no choice but to fall on her own spade, allowing Douglas to swoop in and take her back home. Erik King promised he would keep her safe, and she has been foolish enough to believe him. Now she doesn't know who to trust. Certainly not her brother, whose sharp change in personality leaves her questioning what's real and what isn't.
With no one to turn to and nowhere to run, Grace and her light are all alone—easy prey for the monsters lurking nearby.
What happens when her light finally goes out? Is the Queen of Spades strong enough to keep herself together, or does the King of Hearts have one last bit of luck up his sleeve?

What readers are saying about Black Widow’s Bite
”Loved every minute of it! It’s been awhile since I’ve read a good why choose and this was just what I needed. I loved being able to see just how Addy developed her relationships with each guy and how her gift affected them. It was literally like she was the perfect fit to their little family of misfits. I can’t wait to see what Bella has up her sleeve next!”

Piper, Wyatt, Austin, and Cain are the perfect men when put all together. I love how Addy just embraced her it and them all.They all care about each other. And, the spice was so good! I’m not ashamed to say, it got me hot!! I love the chosen family, touch her and die (x4), Mr. grumpy, Golden Retriever, Witty Banter, open bed, why choose. Ooh, the villain you love to hate!
