Widow: Graves Crime Syndicate, Book 1
Allison—
My world was wrapped in the comfort and security of Devon and the life that we were building together after overcoming infertility. He was the better half between us, and I was excited to bring another part of him into the world through our child. But, when Devon attempts to stop a mugging and is killed, the man my husband died to save and his brothers are forcing me to survive, refusing to have another innocent’s blood on their hands.
There’s Huxley, the computer and business genius Devon saved who pushes the boundaries for me.
David, the doctor that pulled the bullet out of my side only after our agreement, who looks at me like a test subject.
Vyk, the caretaker who refuses to let his cheerful attitude be extinguished by the darkness around him and makes the best bacon,
and,
Blue-Eyes, their unspoken leader that is intent on keeping me out of their world and is straining to keep a hold on his control.
Adopted by Weston Graves in their teens, they were raised to be upstanding citizens by day and illegal smugglers by night. They understand the darkness that lurks in the city's underside and insist on keeping me under their protection. I’ll stay with them until the threat against me is eliminated and if they let me set the retribution price for Devon’s life.
What do I want?
I want to be in the room when the man who murdered my husband is killed.
