Blurb:

The hauntingly beautiful second book in the gothic romance Poisoner series, where Alina Lis finds herself the prey of her vampiric ex-lover, Silas. They’re a couple deadly as sin, and as intoxicating as a sip of poison...

Return to the world of The Poisoner...

In the shadows of 1890s Buffalo, a poisoner’s bite leaves more than just scars—even for the undead.

Two years after fleeing London, Alina Lis has built something she never thought possible: a home. Leading a commune of women like herself, she's found a new, greater purpose; experimenting on the Vipera. But peace, she learns, is as fragile as a spider's web in winter.

Silas Forbes, the Vipera she escaped, hasn’t forgotten. But his thirst for Alina threatens everything he's created in her absence. And he's brought another along for the hunt: Luka Novikov, the man who once betrayed her, now bound to them both by wounds that won't heal and debts that can't be paid.

As human and Vipera worlds violently collide, old poisons surface and new alliances form. In a society where survival means choosing sides, Alina must protect the family she’s built, Silas must decide what price he’ll pay for his obsession, and Luka—marked forever by the poisoner’s kiss—must survive the clash of an immortal’s longing and a woman’s fury.

Some venoms have no antidote. Some hungers can never be satisfied.

The Arachnid is the second installment of the darkly seductive Poisoner series, where humans and Vipera twist together like lovers in the dark.

What to Expect:

Content Warnings: 

  • This is a Gothic Romance and will include explicit sexual scenes. The book will also have elements of horror and mystery, which means there may be descriptions of violence and blood. Following some horror elements, death of humans is described along with discussions of grief, pain, and depression. There is also the discussion of animal death and hunting. These characters may take part in consuming substances or misusing firearms that may not be appropriate and should not be repeated. This book shall not be taken as a reliable guide for foraging, as these fantasy creatures can eat things that cannot be consumed by humans without hospitalization. Some scenes include BDSM concepts, which in reality would be performed by experienced partners who have had extensive talks about trust, consent, and boundaries. As always, depiction is not endorsement.
