ANDREI Andrei is a quantitative analyst. Yeah, he knows it’s a mouthful. Basically, he’s a deep math guy. One of those SOBs who studies the stock markets on the hunt for gold. One difference between him and the rest? Andrei’s better than good. He’s the best. Having struck gold a long time ago, he enjoys keeping his toes dipped in the water while messing with the ethics and morals of the playground he works in—the world economy. With the freedom to live how he chooses, Andrei embraces his present in a way he could never embrace his past. He has family who loves him, but as the grandson of a Bratva Pakhan, things were never normal. Perhaps that’s why a household of six suits him down to a tee. Sascha’s like no other woman Andrei and his friends—men who are more like brothers to him than anything else—have ever known. She’s turned their lives upside down with her unique attitude, her open heart, and warm, caring nature. Frankly, she’s a breath of fresh air. A breath Andrei isn’t willing to do without. For Sascha, he’ll test the ties that bind him to his family to discover who is targeting her, who wants her injured. Because love means prodding the underbelly of the beast that is the Russian mafia to discover who wants his woman dead. Protecting Sascha has always been the priority, but now, it’s time she realized two things. One: she’s their woman. Two: in their arms, she will always be safe. Can they make her understand, or is the household of six that suits the men so perfectly, just too much for Sascha to handle? Find out in Protected by Them. Book Four of the Quintessence series!
