About this listen
Luciana -- All I’ve known is pain and suffering at the hands of men -- even from my father, a man who was supposed to love and protect me. I’ve survived, nothing less and nothing more. When I’m dropped off with a club of bikers, I figure it’s more of the same. I’ll do as I’m told, make sure I please them, and hope one day I’ll find a way to escape. There is only one thing that could ever break me, and I’m scared of what will happen when the club learns my secret. Will they return me to my father? Or will I be used to broker yet another deal? It never occurred to me the President of Hades Abyss would be my salvation, or that I would fall in love with him. I never knew men could be honorable and kind. He’s all gruff and domineering, but under that rough exterior I can see the heart of gold he tries to hide.
Spider -- Assassin Casper Van Horne, Picasso of wet work and pain in my ass, has asked my club to take in two Colombian princesses. Well, he didn’t use the term princesses, but I have no doubt they’ll be spoiled little bitches. The first time I see Luciana and her sister, I think I’ve got them pegged just right -- until I look in Luciana’s eyes and see the fear she’s trying to hide. Something isn’t right. I know it deep in my gut. I never once thought a woman nearly forty years younger than me could ever captivate me, but the more I get to know her, the more Luciana holds me spellbound. I didn’t want to fall in love, didn’t want a woman in my life… but sometimes the Fates know better than a mere mortal man, and Luciana is exactly what I need. When her father demands her return, I vow to keep her safe. No fucking way I’ll let the sick bastards who hurt her get their hands on her again. Now that she’s mine, I’ll march into hell if need be in order to keep her by my side.
WARNING: This book contains bad language, graphic sex, violence, a heroine who has been physically and sexually abused, and an alpha male who will get vengeance at any cost.

I was sixteen when I learned a hard lesson. No, it wasn’t a lesson. It was worse. Kidnapped, tortured, abused in the worst of ways… I’d thought my life was over. Until the day my knight in shining armor came to save me. Patriot. Despite how scary he looks, he has to be the kindest man I’ve ever met. He not only rescues damsels in distress, but animals too. Under that hard exterior is a heart of gold. It doesn’t matter that he’s older than me.

The motorcycle club I was taken to was no place for a woman, as I found out the hard way. They thought I was helpless, but I managed to get away - only to stumble onto three kids who need me as a teacher. The problem? They’re with another club. I can’t leave them until I’m convinced they're safe. Unfortunately, the club president doesn’t like me much. He’s also the hottest man I’ve ever come across.

I wasn't ready to be president of an MC like Iron Tzars, but my father left me little choice. I grew up in the club. At 29, most of the men still see me as no more than a kid. But my daddy taught me well. I tolerate no disloyalty or disrespect and always put the club first. Then I met Iris. She's a heap of trouble in a small package and she pings my radar from the moment I first lay eyes on her. I know she's going to be mine—which means she has to trust me to take care of her. But Iris trusts no one when it comes to her sister. With both of them in danger, I now have to make a decision.

Studying in London was an amazing experience, but was it worth it? That’s the question I keep asking myself. It cost me a lot. It cost me Colin Hill. I’ve been in love with that boy since the first time I saw him in grade three. I thought that breaking up with him before college was the right thing to do. But now, I’m not so sure.

Excellent MC story!
Spider is the President of the Hades Abyss MC and he's been tasked by the assassin Casper Van Horne, to take in three Colombian mafia princesses. He wasn't told why he was protecting them, but it soon becomes apparent that there's much more to the story than he was told. These young girls have suffered at the hands of their father, his second in command and assorted men in the compound by being forced to submit to their wishes. Once Luciana shares this with Spider, he makes a vow to keep her safe and he takes it one step farther and makes her his wife. He never wanted to be married, but now he wants it all. It's a very well-written story with vivid descriptions, emotional dialogue, and extraordinary characters.
The narration by Umi Markkanen is exceptional. Her dynamic voice, varied intonation and inflection gave each character a unique voice and personality.

Age-Gap Romance
This is the first book in the Hades Abyss MC series. Spider and Luciana's (huge) age-gap romance is intense, emotional, and passionate, filled with action, danger, and twists and turns. There is a lot going on in this first novella. Umi Markkanen did a great job bringing this story to life. I enjoyed it. Looking forward to listening to Rocket, the next book in the series. #StoryOrigin

Spider and Lucinda
Spider and Lucinda
I love the MC stories! Spider is a member of Hade’s Abyss. As expected, there are dark moments and potential triggers in the story. Spider is a tough guy, leader of the MC. He agrees to take in two sisters, Mafia’s princesses. He expected them to be rich, spoiled, and a bit difficult. They are not as he expected. These sisters were horribly abused by their father and his men, unimaginable things. They will do anything to not be sent back. Spider is significantly older than Lucinda, but they are drawn to each other. A third sister is placed with another MC club. Drama unfolds when the father tries to take Lucinda back. It was a good story, and well written. The narration was well done. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Good Start
This was a good start to the series, It is definitely intermingled with other series, which I have not read and while not necessary might give you better insight to the backstories, Overall I enjoyed the story though it does deal with very heavy and dark topics, it's a short instalove age gap but you get a full complete story and narration is done well.

Great Series
Read the trigger warnings on this one because it is a doozy. Luciana has been abused in everyway possible and Spider's protective instincts are in hyperdrive. This is a huge age gap type story, so it might not be for you, but I enjoyed it and the way the narrator brought it to life.

Unexpected Surprises
think this is a solid beginning to the series. With that said, I'm not going to beat around the bush. There is pregnancy loss, violence against women and children is discussed or inferred with the acts occurring offscreen, and some... bad guy cleanup. All this to say, check your triggers.
Luciana Gomez and Trent "Spider" Storm are... unexpected is probably the best descriptor. The age gap is huge. She comes into his life with A LOT of baggage and a big secret. He's never desired a women to be at his side, even when he had one in the past.
I do wish we got to spend more time getting to see them as a couple, but I liked it and look forward to getting to know this MC that seems destined to crossover with my other favorite MCs written by Harley. (There are four MC series that have cameos in this novella, but no prior reading is necessary.)
I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrator is Umi Markkanen who continues to deliver a worthy listen. 🎧💜🎧

Spider is not OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This book was not an easy book to listen to because of the abuse off page but I have to say that the writing and narrator not only bring to life thewords but made you see the worl differently and to not judge others for behind facades you have no idea what they are dealing with.
As always Umi Markkanen, bring the world to life. You literally become part of the work of Hades Abyss.
I am feeling Harley Wylde writing. Spider is perfect. There is nothing about him that is "old"..if you read/listen you know. I have to say that I wish there were people like that Spider...men willing to sacrifice their set ways to see a better future.
