  I was on my way to deal with some thugs harassing my client, still hungover from the night before, when I collided with a devastatingly handsome stranger and spilled coffee all over him. I thought nothing of the chance encounter until our paths crossed again under far worse conditions. The stranger turned out to be Ilay Ivanovich, the Pakhan of the Russian Bratva. I’m a lawyer fighting for a client being crushed by a corrupt senator. The deeper I dig, the more I uncover the mafia and the senator are working together. And lIay is at the center of it all. But the case stops being my biggest problem. He does. The deeper I get, the more intense his obsession with me grows. Now I’m learning just how dangerous it is to catch the attention of the Bratva king. And in the Bratva, what the Pakhan claims is his forever. Full-length standalone mafia romance. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed. My Review Iris is lucky that she did not see Ilay's mean side when she first encountered him. If anythi...

  I was left battered and bruised, missing pieces of my body and soul that I would never get back. One by one, they burrowed into my heart and gave me the strength I lacked to stand tall and fight for myself, my freedom, and my future. As we untangle the web of pain and deceit, the truth is revealed. Can I survive the storm, or will I forever be frozen in time by crimson ice? My Review I liked this book. I am a fan of why choose romance reads. This one featured four sexy hockey players. All four of the guy's Tate, Beckett, Jaxon, and Logan are good. They cared for Arianna. After the horrific ordeal that Arianna endured, she needed the guys. While I did like this book, I found myself not connecting as deeply as I have with the last several most recent books. The intimate scenes are spicy, and I am glad to see Arianna slowly working through her trauma. Which that opening scene is a little harsh to read and for anyone who may have experienced this in the past, please take care of your...
