Synopsis

SImone "Honey" Williams isn't looking for love, just the next bag. Guarded, gorgeous and grinding her way through nights at Magic's Garden, she's mastered the art of taking what she needs without letting anyone close. Until Kingston "King" Carter walks in. Ruthless, rich and always in control, King is used to running the streets and everyone in them. But the moment he sees Simone, all bets are off. He wants her. Wants to protect her, own her, keep her. And he doesn't care what lines he has to cross to make that happen. But the streets are shifting. A new crew is gunning for King's territory and when Simone's pulled into the middle of a brewing war, the game turns deadly. Is she just another pawn in a man's world or the queen who changes everything? High heat. Heavy tension. Hood loyalty . This is Velvet & Venom . Where love might feel like protection, but it hits like possession.
