Viktor: Ava’s too pure for the likes of me but it's too late for her to run. The moment Ava entered my radar, she became my prey. I didn’t become the Pakhan of the Kotov Bratva by playing nice. I see something I like, I take it for myself. Fate put her in my path and it’s rude to refuse a horse’s gift in the mouth. When I learn she’s carrying something precious, I’ve no choice but to make Ava my bride. Ava: I never imagined one wild night with a random stranger would lead to my downfall. Viktor’s possessive, ruthless and imposing. Desperation pushed me to work for him. That was before I knew who he truly was. Monster. Bratva boss. Father to my unborn baby. My future husband. He’ll ruin me before long, but it is so bad being his?

My father left me a mountain of debt before he died. I’m suddenly thrust into a world of monsters. There’s no one else to turn to but him—Pavel Kotov. I broke his heart years ago and he won’t let me forget it. I’m in his debt. I once rejected his world but it’s too late to turn back now. This vicious Bratva boss now owns me—body, heart, and soul … and I kind of like it. Marina was the one light to my darkness. When she left, I was never the same again. I plan to settle the score between us, but the careless girl I knew is gone. A gorgeous curvy goddess has taken her place. Marina’s fierce and determined, but one way or another, she’ll bend to my will. I just need to be careful she won’t steal my heart in the process.

Katya: Some people call me an ice princess. There’s a reason for that. I survived the massacre of my entire family. When the Kotov Bratva took me in, I swore I’d do anything for my daughter and my new family. Aleksander is off-limits. He’s also relentless, persuasive, and addictive. I lean into his touches and kisses even though I should be staying away. I’m a survivor. I don’t just open up my heart to anyone but with Aleksander it’s easy. If being with him is so wrong, then why does it feel so right? Aleksander: I know Katya Kotov inside and out. Under all that ice, lies a passionate and fiery woman I can’t wait to own and possess. I waited, hoping she’d find a better man, a decent man to settle with. But I’m not that generous. I’m a selfish and possessive bastard. Katya’s mine to tame and I’d kill anyone that gets in the way.
