Unholy Matrimony

This is a marriage to the mob romance novella, second chances, later-in-life story with a touch of humor.

"Now, you listen to me, Mr. Spidey, if you know what's good for you. You'll turn your big ass around and sashay out the door again!"

You might wonder what a successful, sought-after New York fashion designer was doing in the Australian Outback. A question Tamara Rhodes had asked herself numerous times since she arrived, especially since she just realized those Amazon-sized spiders were real and not photoshopped pics on the web. If only the damn beady-eyed monster would listen and mosey outside. But no... just like its namesake asshole human counterpart, Spider, who she came to give a piece of her mind, he just sat there... waiting and watching.

"You stepped into my web, and now, you'll never get out."

She was exactly what Hudson Turner didn't want but became the only thing he needed. It was a conundrum, a serious one, especially since he had returned to Australia to step into the role his father had been priming him for since childhood-mafioso extraordinaire. A responsibility he did with as much gusto as everything else in life. Now, he was the big bad spider who caught all the crime world Down Under in his web of power.

Soon, Tamara became entangled in the most destructive web Hudson weaved-seduction-and before she knew it, she said I do to his proposal of Unholy Matrimony.
