#1 bestselling author Nikki Turner returns with an explosive new novel about a woman at an emotional crossroads?and the men left in her wake.

Isis Tatum knows firsthand the way love can mess up a person. After all, she saw her mother drive a truck through the home of her father?s mistress before killing her dad. And ever since Isis was a teenager, her love life has been a series of disasters: Her first sweetheart was executed by the state of Virginia, and her next lover was sent to jail for murder. Now Isis is a successful jewelry designer, but she remains a failure with men. When she meets Logic, a Las Vegas high roller who treats her like a princess, Isis reckons she?s finally struck gold?literally. Logic sees to it that her custom pieces of jewelry are seen on the hottest rap stars and pro athletes.

But when this Mr. Right ends up in jail too, Isis starts to believe that she?s cursed, that she?s a true Black Widow. Always one to roll with the punches, she embraces her life and walks bravely down all its twisted paths, taking her business to unprecedented heights while letting the men who dare to get involved with her take their chances.

?Few writers working in the field today bring the drama quite as dramatically as Nikki Turner. . . . [She?s] a master at weaving juicy, ?hood-rich sagas of revenge, regret, and redemption.?

Nikki Turner at her best

As usual Nikki is doing her thing. I loved this book. She's still the reigning Queen of Street Lit. Black Widow proved it and I can't wait for the next book.

Another great page turner...

I have been a big fan of Nikki Turner and she once again delivered a very easy to read & exciting tale from the hood. I love the way her female characters are normal everyday women who learn from their mistakes and somehow find a way to turn their situations around.

Entertaining, Exciting & Fun to read!!!

Good read

Even though this book was no I-95 or Glamorous Life, i actually enjoyed this read. I got my copy from the library, since everyone told me that it was not a good read. Im glad i decided to see for myself because im waiting on a part two to this book, or the sequel to Forever a Hustlers wife so she can bring Isis back in the picture with Unique and Bambi.

But i think Lootchee is a character thats gonns be around for quite some time, popping in and out of Nikki's book.

Black Conceals, White Reveals

I am a huge Nikki Turner fan, probably her biggest fan, but she completely let me down with The Black Widow. The beginning started with a bang and I was enjoying this story up until the part about Isis and Logic. The story, then, took a turn for the worst. The storyline was all over the place. There was way too much designer name-dropping. The whole Black Widow jewelry designer thing was meaningless to the story. The ending was completly rushed and I hope a sequel is NOT in the works, because the story was basically pointless.

3 stars

THREE AND A MAYBE

I MUST SAY THAT IT TOOK ME NO TIME TO JUMP INTO THE BOOK. BY DAY TWO I WAS ON THE LAST CHAPTER. I WAS HOWEVER VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE WAY THAT THE BOOK ENDED. COULD THERE BE A SEQUEL, VERY WELL. BASED UPON THE WAY THAT IT ENDED, I DOUBT IF I WILL READ IT. I AM HOWEVER WILLING TO TRY ANOTHER BOOK BY N. TURNER.
