Onyx is more than a pretty face. He's a nightmare wrapped in silk. A face in the shadows. The one that New York calls The Black Widow. Young, handsome, and charming, the world is at his feet. And his last three husbands? Six feet under.
But he doesn't just stop at husbands. Anyone on his list can go. He does it quietly, he does it well, and then he's on to the next.
When Lucero Marino lands in his lap as his next target? He's more than happy to remove scum from the Earth. But things don't go as planned.
Because Lucero only wants one thing in life. Onyx. And he'll do anything to have him.
Including forcing him down the aisle with a smile.
