***This series picks up two years after The Turgenev Bratva Blood Brothers, so if you haven't read that yet, I strongly suggest you do so you know who these characters are! Books should be read in order. *** The Peace Protection Agency officially opens in two weeks! Nikita finally narrows his receptionist candidates down to two women and since his wife Peace really likes Contessa, he offers her the job. Contessa is a divorced single mother of a 4-year-old daughter and has shown she's a perfect fit for their testosterone-filled office. Mavriki has found himself entranced by her from their first meeting and begins watching over her once he realizes she's hiding a secret. Contessa likes him and finds it endearing that he's so protective of her and her daughter but doesn't want him to get involved with her personal drama. He has no choice but to get involved when he thinks she may be in danger. He'll do whatever is needed to keep her safe. The books in this series contain violence, ethnic slurs, coarse language, mention of drug addiction, sexual assault, domestic violence and other adult themes that may be offensive or triggering. Not intended for anyone under 18!
