Black Venom Crew #4

Deadliest Throne

Rate this book
I got too comfortable with my life.

Distracted by becoming a mom and taking care of the little one growing within me.

We were happy, enjoying the little things in life.

But when you're in a world like ours, lowering your guard isn't an option.

In a blink of an eye, everything changed.

He wants me and my baby.

Now I'm fighting for our survival.

Time is running out but I know my guys won't stop until they avenge me.

Until then, I just need to hold on.

New allies arise but can they be trusted or are they working for the enemy?

We have no other choice but to take the risk, because if we don't, we all lose this fight for the spot on top of this deadly throne.

Holy Moly. This book. I couldn't put it down and finished it in 1 day. Raven and her guys got the HEA they deserved after all they have been through. If you haven't started this series, I highly recommend you do!

Wholesome round-up!
This book is slightly shorter than the previous three and is more of a focus on Raven’s pregnancy than any major storyline developments. There’s still the big baddie present in her father, and there are some twists there to bring depth to that plot. But largely the focus is on how Raven and her guys deal with the pregnancy and their overbearing caveman-ness 😅 I love how Raven isn’t afraid to put her men in their place but also their obsessiveness with her 🥰 the two epilogues are all that you could want for this little family! Great end to a brilliant series.

This was without a doubt the most perfect way to tie up a series.
Raven and her fearless guys. Their story that led them together and how their relationship evolved and changed was addicting and hard to put down.
Alisha is a top RH Author for me. I love how strong she makes the MFC, and Raven was no different.
She’s strong and she knows what she wants.
She always stands up to her guys when needed, even if she gets a punishment out of it .😈
I loved how we got to experience Raven’s entire pregnancy with her and her guys, and how it changed each of them in their own special way.
I loved it all. The spice was 👌and I’m so happy how it ended!
Fantastic series finale !

We are at the end for Raven and her crew, and even though this was the shortest book of the series, there was still SO many twists and turns! I was absolutely glued to my kindle and just couldn't stop reading, and those two epilogues really made me tear up! Just another fabulous addition for Alisha, who is quickly becoming one of my favorite RH authors out there!

We were introduced to a lot of new characters here, and I hope one day Alisha comes back to this world and writes more books because there's so much potential here! I love everything she writes, and I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!

What an amazing end to a fantastic series! This has actually been my fave book out of the series as it has its usual black venom crew vibes but it also shows the softer side to Ravens men and that also includes link! Congratulations on another fantastic book Alisha.

Well here’s the conclusion of the black venom crew. I love how we got the glimpses into the future and that Raven got her happy ending. I love how the story can’t with enough drama and spice to make it really good. Love the way the story wrapped and getting all the twists towards the end.

I have loved this series from the get go and this was the perfect book to wrap up Raven and her guys stories. We finally get answers about her dad and the character growth is amazing, especially for Linc. As always it had some amazing steam. Definitely happy with the future that is laid out for these characters.

Raven is pregnant. And not by choice. She knows Lincoln is responsible for her situation. Not that she's not happy. However, she thought there would be more time to mourn the loss of her first baby, but Lincoln had other ideas.

Hunter, Taylor, Travis, and Quinton are very attentive to their girl, but she misses what they give her, especially from Lincoln.

As they celebrate their son's Baptism, Taylor and Travis, with the help of Hunter, give her something significant to christen the most important day of their son's lives.

Raven is having a hard time understanding why Lincoln is keeping her at a distance, why he won't talk to her, and touch her. His and Hunter's mom help her to understand his inner turmoil and its Hunter, who gives her an idea, one that does the trick, bringing her daddy Lincoln back to her.

And now that Lincoln has reclaimed his girl, Hunter, Taylor, Travis, and Quinton vye for her attention in other ways.

As Raven's pregnancy progresses, so does her need to have her men claim her in every way possible, and they do not mind fulfilling her needs.

On a joyous occasion, they celebrate with a gender reveal. Hunter's male intuition proves correct: they're expecting a little girl.

They know the threat of Ivy's father is still a cause for concern. They still take every precautions. Ivy reaches breaking point. She needs an out.

A family trip with Andrew to a local fair was just the thing they needed, yet as their guards are down dose disaster strike and Raven is taken.

Lincoln is livid. He is out for blood. Yet Hunter seems to be the only one who can reign the beast inside of him.

Black Venom Crew is out in force. They will not stop until Raven is home. Taylor and Travis hide a sinister family secret, one they must share to save their girl.

They reach out to their father, who is a notorious leader of a biker gang and only to come face to face with their brother Titus, who let's them know their father has passed on.

Titus has information relating to the whereabouts of Raven. To free her, they must come together, putting their differences aside because the life of his girl is at stake too.

Raven is in a predicament all of her own when she meets Dynika. Raven is shocked to learn that she has a sister. And when she learns of Dynika's past and what she endured, Raven's heart hurts for her.

A storm isn't going to hamper their efforts in getting to their girls, as Titus and his crew, along with Lincoln, Hunter, Taylor, Travis, and Quinton do they face the man that has cause Raven incessant amount of pain.

But a scream pierces the air, and what Lincoln stumbles upon shatters his heart anew. Raven is OK. However, she's in labour. Lincoln, Hunter, Taylor, Travis, and Quinton support Raven, giving her the strength she needs as she brings their daughter into the world.

Their happy moment is cut short as they are forced to move to avoid being caught in the cross-hairs of the Russians, but before they leave, Dynika and Raven get the closure they deserve.

Their daughter Haisley is happy, healthy, and well, and that is all that matters to them. They have everything they want and need in this world, yet Raven is in for the surprise of her life.

Lincoln was serious when he said he was going to marry Raven, and he lived up to that promise, fulfilling her dreams of being not only his wife but being together as one, as family.

As they say, all series must come to an end, and Alisha Williams wrote the perfect ending to their story because that time jump into their future was perfect and everything readers could want and more.

Highly recommend both the author and the book.

And I would definitely be remiss in saying that those smexy scenes were downright filthy, extremely hot, steamy, spicy, where pleasure and pain ignite a blazing inferno of passion, with no chance of extinguishing any time soon.

This a satisfying wrap up to Raven's story and there were still enough twists and turns that kept me engaged until the very end. There are are intriguing new characters, some final spicy scenes and Hunter's ducks which I will always love!

This may have been Raven's story but Link was the star of the show for me. Link was always my favourite character and although we saw brief glimpses of his softer side in the previous books, this one really rounded out his character for me. Link has come so far from the Link we met in book one and I loved how although he didn't change for Raven, his character felt a lot more balanced in this.

The epilogue though; I don't know which spin off I'd want to read first. There are so many possibilities in that brief chapter that this universe doesn't look like its over yet!

My interpretation of the star system;
3 stars - I enjoyed it; would read the author again
4 stars - I really liked it; I am invested and definitely want more from this author/series
5 stars - I loved it; I engaged with this book completely until I finished it and it is one I will re-read

5 stars all around great characters story and of course steamy scenes. Also the ups down angst. HEA

One of the best books I've ever read. I love these guys so much and Raven. And I see what this author did too. Because in another book she did the same and put 2 kids that were raised as brother and sister but yet no blood where the girl is in love with him. He is too but he is confused because he thinks it's wrong. He fights it until he can't anymore and I can't wait for the next book to come out. Anyways this series is so good. It had some Rollercoaster moments some angst too. I absolutly loved the epilogs and wish all books had them that way. I hope everyone who like RH reads this. It's the best. These are the books I love. Where the are already in love with each other and everyone is ok with it and the guys don't Bully her. Please enjoy this series cause this author did phenomenal with all the characters and story line.

This, my friends, is how you end a series.

I have long been a fan of Raven and her guys. Alisha really has taken us on a journey of them growing and developing their solid relationship to the extent you also feel like you are a part of it. You therefore cannot help but hold your breath hoping that the HEA be achieved and thank goodness it was.

As a mother, I really enjoyed that we got to experience her entire pregnancy with her guys, especially given the contents of the last instalment. The realistic portrayal of how the journey to parenthood changes an individual in different ways was a joy to read and was warm to the soul.

Whilst this was possibly the "lightest" since the first book the subject matter dealt with demanded some levity and made for a very enjoyable read. With this, I feel the series as a whole has something for everyone that enjoys RH romance books and so I would highly recommend.

I couldn't have wished for a better ending for Raven, her kids and her men. They've been through a lot and they deserved the happy ending they got. I feel like their story wrapped up really well, I wasn't left with any unanswered questions.

I've enjoyed this entire series so for it to be ending has me in tears. One thing about these characters is that they are gonna have a lot of sweet/romantic moments but also have a lott of steamy ones. Even after 20 years they are still obsessed and in love with each other as they were from the beginning. I loved seeing them as parents especially the men.

We got to meet a couple of new characters which turned out to be a double plot twist that still has me a bit shocked. Overall this was the perfect wrap up for these characters. They got the ending they deserved to live.

The last book in this series has a bit of a different vibe than the rest of the books. It was definitely focused more on the fluff/spice side of things, as well as an introduction to some new characters. It leaves us with a lot of opportunity for some excellent future books while settling everything for Raven and her men.

All of this is not to say there isn’t any action. The conclusion of the storyline with Raven’s dad is full of excitement and secrets. I’ve felt the least connected to the twins in the previous books, but this one was their time to shine! (Much to the chagrin of Daddy Link 😂)

As I said, Alisha leaves us with so many openings in this world and I really hope we see all of these new characters in future books. I was definitely not ready to leave the BVC world!

I absolutely loved the conclusion to this story. I didn’t find this book as dark as some of the others but there were still some dark elements. I loved the plot and the new characters we met. I’m hoping some of these new characters can get their own stories in the future!

Raven is definitely one of my favorite FMC and I love each of her guys. They are all protective and perfect for her. Even though I typically prefer the darker characters, there’s just something about Quinton that I love. Link is a close second though with his possessiveness and crazy ways.

If you are looking for a new dark series to binge, you need to read this one right away!

Wow! I forgot how hot Ravens harem can be.

The spice level was of the charts for this book. The chapel scene alone had me taking breaks just so I can breath. Also Link is such a possessive Ahole and I couldn’t find any fault in that. I wonder what that says about me lol. I love the rest of Harem, they fit with Raven so well. As for Raven, she was prefect FMC for this story. Alisha never goes wrong when it comes to writing her FMC or her spice for that matter. The story was wrap up well. I can’t wait to see if she does something with the twins. Finger cross she goes with MMF trope for their story. I completely recommend this series who loves reverse harem.

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this series. The boys and Raven, how much they have grown and got much closer with each other. I loved the interactions between them all.

This last book was bittersweet since it was the last one in which we get closure with everything that had gone down since book 1. I found myself immersed in the story since beginning to end and I can't express how much I loved this series.

From all the books I've read from Alisha Williams, I think this series has been the best one for me thus far.

I can't wait to see what else is in store for us next!

This book is what we have all been waiting for. The stunning conclusion to the Black Venom Crew series. And it pulled out all the stops, it rolled out everything. We got funny moments, kidnapping, lots of spicy scenes. We also get to experience life as a black venom crew member while juggling kids, family and running the best crew in their town. It’s really heartwarming to watch the guys be parents. They really have broken up before our very eyes. I’m so sad to leave this world but I’m also intrigued by the side characters that popped up and I have a feeling we will have more from this world!

This was the perfect conclusion to Raven’s story. I love all her guys, Link with his crazy possessiveness has come a very long way for book 1 and I’m so here for it. Hunter, the twins (who doesn’t love twins in a harem?! 🥵) and the addition of Quinton just took it to new heights. I feel like this one is more relationship focused, which is my favorite part. There are still the darker elements but not as much as previous books. Definitely tons of spicy times. I love the HEA, it’s everything Raven and her boys deserve and they really earned it.

This was a good ending/wrap up to these Raven and her men. I will forever love Quinton and Hunter. It had a good balance of spice to plot and to finally see the resolution with her dad was nice. With the introduction of new characters and the kids I can’t wait to see where this universe goes.
Raven will always be my girl though! I love her sass and the banter she has with her guys. Seeing Quinton with the kids was just so sweet and you could tell that’s truly where he loves to be. I also LOVED the alter scene at the beginning.

This series is freaking PERFECT and this final book is absolutely incredible!!!

Deadliest Throne is the 4th and final book in the Black Venom Crew series. It's a dark why choose romance. Make sure to check the trigger warning.

I just want my own Link and Hunter so bad!!!

We pick up where we left off in book 3 and Alisha didn't hold back! It's so much action, so much spice, so much emotion, I can't put into words how much I love this book!!!

I will always one click anything by Alisha! If you haven't read this series yet, go do it right now!!!

Book 4 was not just the final but for raven to finally end her demons once and for all. I mean she lives with demons but these were her past catching up and to move on they had to end. Again book 4 had some interesting twists and surprises and wow can her and her men make babies lol in some ways they have tamed but still have their ways.

All in all this series has been one crazy whirlwind of chaos, mayhem, drama and so much blood. As the books get darker, the guys get naughtier. Enjoy 😉

This is the fourth and final book in the Black Venom series. You need to read the previous books first.
This was everything we needed for a final book. A pregnancy, kidnapping, killing, surpise siblings and various adult scenes in all types of scenarios. Plus there are 2 epilogoues with plenty of years in between them. I loved this series and although it's sad to see it end, it was done in a good way!

I absolutely LOVED this final book for Raven & her men. I felt at peace with this ending and love the insight with the epilogue. Raven is ballsy in this one and stood her ground. I’m proud of her for that. I love that we got to see a minuscule squishy side of Link and a little more assertive side of Q. The twins and Hunter always bring the laughter and craziness which balances it all out. Great series definitely going on my re-read shelf!!

Absolutely demolished this book! Perfectly executed conclusion. All the loose ends were tied up, but there was room left for spinoffs and the side characters to have their moment. I know Link and Hunter are most people’s favorites but the twins stole the show for me in so many parts…I mean can we say holy experience haha. I love all of Raven’s men equally and their relationships only continued to blossom. 7/5 stars, I can’t wait to reread this series!

Great ending

Loved this series, and I often return to it when I need a bit of good spice!

Alisha Williams must have an insane writing schedule, because she cranks these out like she's a machine, and I've yet to read a story of hers I disliked. I appreciate her ability to mix dark worlds with sweetness. It's clear it's not reality, but the characters are still relatable. Already looking forward to her next release!

I absolutely loved this series and I am so sad to see it come to and end. It is such a good series. I love these characters. They have grown so much on me since book 1 and have grown throughout I can’t help but love them.

I really do love the chemistry between these characters and the way their relationships grew it made me so happy to see and those love scenes are always so good!

Overall such a good series and I absolutely loved it so much! Highly recommend this series!

Great conclusion

This was the perfect conclusion to an amazing series. Raven and her men were fighters and lovers, bringing the best of both worlds to the page. There were a few typos here and there, but overall the book was flawless. Alisha Williams brought the story to live in the best way. Five enthusiastic stars, and three 🌶️🌶️🌶️ for spice. I will miss the Black Venom Crew!

I cant believe this series is complete. I have loved these characters and their story so much. Raven is so strong and her men are my favorite brand of unhinged. It was a perfect ending and I cant wait for future generations with the kids! The spice was hot as always and the twists and turns kept me hooked as I read this in one sitting. Loose ends were taken care of and we got to meet some new characters as well! All in all it was the perfect ending to this series.
