Reviewer: Laura

I have a dark secret. I’m cursed with an intense sexual desire which can never be satisfied. If I abstain, I go mad. If I have sex, I black out and my partner ends up dead. The only way to break the curse is to find my protector and soul mate.

James is a cop who thinks I’m the "Black Widow" serial killer people are talking about. He's watching in the shadows, waiting for me to slip up so he can send me to jail. My curse longs to claim him, but I resist because he saved my life. Soon, I will need him to do it again.

Now his morbid fascination with me has turned into an obsession. I don't know how much longer I can keep him at arm's length.

I'm not sure I want to...

The world created by Ms. Rock in this book is fascinating. From the first line, I was hooked. I appreciate a good plot. But when the author bends it, molds it, and transforms it into a great plot, the reader can’t help but be blown away. Spyder’s emotions are beautifully translated onto the page. I felt all that was at stake for her whether she gave in to the curse or not. She was conflicted at best and tortured at worst, and it was all crystal clear. There is a talent and finesse to writing without overdoing it, and this is a perfect example of just the right amount of both. I want to read every story written about this world because the end of this book seems to be just the beginning.
