The Awakening of The Widow Maker is the story of high school senior Carlos MacIntyre aka Lil Carlos, who loses his mind amid the violence birthed from a deadly trapezoid of personal ambition and selfish exploitation, which take place between two feuding families, controlling two crews at war in a struggle for power over a highaEUR"volume drugaEUR"trafficking zone. The war birthed from an old family betrayal that originated in North Minneapolis that has spread over time into a neighborhood that is located off Brooklyn Boulevard and Zane Avenue in the heart of Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. The resilience of the human part of Lil Carlos's soul attempting to survive the darkness unleashes The Widow Maker-a psychopathic, unrelenting, serialaEUR"killing entity that has been waiting in a dark chamber of his mind since he was in the womb. Driven by an insatiable thirst for blood, along with a growing hunger to inflict pain, he leaves a very disturbing dark age calling card at each homicide scene across the Twin Cities. The unrepentant ones who have no loyalty, destroy the balance of the streets, and incite his wrath will bear his eternal mark. Swiftly, his trail of carnage stretches from the doors of Park Center High to Regions Hospital in East St. Paul, Minnesota. None that fall on his list can find refuge at any place. Lead Detective Tommy Soprano, along with his rookie partner Mike Kowalski, are in a race against time to catch a methodical killer before he strikes again and save a young man with a severe psychosis, before he is lost forever to the darkness within himself. John Wayne Gacy (Chicago, Illinois), Jeffrey Dahmer (Milwaukee, Wisconsin), and John Lee Malvo (Washington, DC) each had their own dwelling, territory, and story with roots of old. However, even they knew well not to cross into the backyard of the Twin Cities. Lest, through their own illaEUR"gotten behavior, they too should fall on the list of none other than . . . The Light of Death Himself. . . The Widow Maker!

After Jose Santos's younger sister secretly enters them both into the yearly dragon lottery and they get selected, he begrudgingly agrees to participate. It means picking a human female from a giant room full of them and staying around just long enough to get her pregnant. However, when his dragon notices one female who keeps hiding behind a book, Jose has a new plan—win his fated mate, no matter what it takes. Victoria Lewis prefers being home with a book and away from large crowds. But she desperately wants to study dragon-shifters at close range, so she musters up her courage to enter the dragon lottery. When she's selected as one of the potential candidates, she decides to accept her spot. After all, it's not as if the dragon-shifter will pick her—an introverted bookworm who prefers jeans and sweats to skirts or fancy clothes. Well, until he's standing right in front of her with flashing eyes and says he wants her. As Jose tries to win his fated female, trouble stirs inside his clan. Will he be able to keep his mate with him forever? Or will the American Department of Dragon Affairs whisk her away to some other clan to protect her? NOTE: This is a quick, steamy standalone story about fated mates and sexy dragon-shifters near Lake Tahoe in the USA. You don't have to read all my other dragon books to enjoy this one!
