She saved my life…and she’s never going to let me forget it. If I ever lay my hands on Svetlana Melnikov, her dad has made it abundantly clear what will happen to me. It involves a dull blade and the loss of my favorite body part. Even with that threat hanging over me, I want her. I want her more than I’ve ever wanted anything, and now I’m in a mess and need her help. I swore I’d never cross the line with her, but she’s determined to make me a liar. Infuriating, gorgeous, and determined to keep me at arm’s length. I saved his life, and he acts like he can barely tolerate my presence, but I know he’s lying. He’s a bodyguard who insists I wear a knit cap when it’s cold outside. He’s not fooling anyone. I just need to get him to act on it. When an unexpected turn of events means we need to escape for a few days, I’m all in. If that means we’ll be hiding out, sharing a bed, and pretending to be a family, well, so be it. It’s time to make Vitya realize that he may guard my body, but he can’t guard my heart. It’s been his since the day I saved his life two years ago, and it’ll never be anyone else’s. This is a very steamy dark mafia romance and, although it does have dark elements, there’s a good dose of humor in this one as well. This is the third book in the Melnikov Legacy series. The books are interconnected, but each can easily be read as a standalone. No cheating, no OW drama, and an HEA is always guaranteed! Please see warning at beginning of novel and read responsibly.
