My name is Cassis Dark, and I am a Spider Venin. My bite is venomous and can paralyze a man within seconds of exposure, and if I choose, it can kill.

When I was a teenager, my stepmother sold me into slavery. As a newly freed woman, I fight to protect the innocent from a world of pain with which I'm all too familiar.

The evils that stalk the night aren’t all human. Good thing for their intended victims…neither am I.

Review
Cassis has spent time at the hands of the Queen of the hellhounds as a slave due to her step mom. However, when she reached maturity as a spider venin with a poison bite she made her escape. Now that she’s free she’s going back to save her friend who’s still in the hands of the Queen. With the help of her friend Keri who’s a scorpion venin the duo infiltrate her lair and make it out with Cassis friend a snake venin who’s just coming into her own. 

Her landlord and friend Charlie’s sister has gone missing and Cassis is just the person to go into the supernatural world to rescue the missing Fairy. Determined to find her she heads to the Circus to speak with a shifter who last saw Finley. Little did Cassis know when she arrived at the Cirus that Jack would have two very attractive traits werewolf and musician. With the help of an alpha werewolf, a scorpion Venin and a little luck Cassis may just find Finley before it’s too late. 

I like Cassis she’s a girl with a good heart who’s a defender of the innocent and looks good doing it. I love that she’s not your typical supernatural creature as a spider Venin she has some unique magical abilities besides a deadly bite. I like Jack he may just be what she needs and who doesn’t love a hunky attractive alpha male. The chemistry between these two is sizzling and can’t wait to see how it’s going to play out. 

I knew the moment I saw it that I had to read Sweet Venom the cover is stunning and instantly captured my attention. Plus it’s not every day you see a spider hero as most people dislike them so much or even a scorpion. I think Cassis and Keri are both unique bad-ass heroines who totally kick ass in a fight and I love them. The story while it’s not new is very unique it’s filled with supernatural beings that we are familiar with as well as new ones. This isn’t my first book by the author, and it doesn’t disappoint a captivating fast-paced fantasy that was hard to put down. I’m anxiously waiting for the next one as I enjoyed this one so much. I highly recommend checking out this author’s books everyone has been amazing.
