Poisonous Kiss: Venomous Gods, Book 3

Gabriel Black has the world completely fooled—and Fumi is the only one who knows it.

To everyone else, he's politics' most dazzling golden boy: charming, untouchable, destined for greatness. But Fumi has seen what hides behind that million-dollar smile, and what she found there was something dark, deliberate, and dangerously beautiful. She's spent years keeping her distance. Now, with her father's life on the line and a ruthless crime boss collecting debts in blood, distance is a luxury she can no longer afford.

Gabriel needs a wife. Not for love—for power. A carefully chosen partner to complete the perfect political image he's spent years constructing. Fumi is his ideal candidate, and he knows it. She knows he knows it. That's exactly what makes their arrangement so combustible.

What begins as a calculated performance for cameras and campaign donors quickly curdles into something neither of them bargained for. Their fake smiles start feeling real. Their staged touches linger too long. And the secrets they're each hiding—secrets that could destroy them both—are pressing against the carefully constructed walls between them.

This darkly seductive third installment in the Venomous Gods series masterfully blends romantic suspense, sharp-edged humor, and scorching tension into something utterly addictive. Fumi and Gabriel are oil and fire—wrong for each other in every rational sense, and absolutely inevitable in every other.

Some arrangements have no clean escape. Some poisons, you choose to swallow twice.
