Tucked away deep in the hills of Dubna lives a man hiding from a past that’s as grisly as the scar on his face. Reclusive. Paranoid. Violent. His trek to the top has been a bloody game—with a deadly end for anyone who loses. And it’s not over yet. Vera Avdonin stumbled into the life of Vaslav Pashkov entirely by accident, and it should have stopped there, too. Just a broken ballerina who helped a beautifully tortured stranger. But she’ll soon learn that like the mafiya he controls, once he brings you in, there is no way out. They don’t call him The Beast of Moscow for nothing. \* The Beast of Moscow is a slow burn, contemporary romance saga told over the course of several parts and encompassing more than one generation from start to finish. Only part of this is a love story; everything else hurts. TBOM—taking readers from Moscow to Paris while peeling back the beginning layers of Vaslav Pashkov—is part one.

The Beast is back in Dubna. Let the obsession begin. Finished with the Italian and home in his motherland, Vaslav Pashkov should be happy to isolate away in his safe and private hills. But the unfortunate detail of unfinished business with his dead friend drags him back to the city and puts Vera Avdonin straight into his waiting hands yet again. Every meddling step he takes into her life only drags her closer to him whether she likes it or not. Somebody’s bound to notice. How much will they pay? Welcome to Russia—while here, you will play by his rules. \* The Lies Between Lovers is Part Two of Vera and Vaslav’s story in The Beast of Moscow Saga. It should only be read after Part One.

Kidnapping one’s future father-in-law is par for the course for a man like Vaslav Pashkov. Even if done with the best of intentions. But ensuring a safe arrival, and departure, of Vera’s father is simply one loose end of many for Vaslav to tie up. And his timeline to finish pertinent business just tightened up. Now, there’s a wedding to plan. Didn’t you hear? The beast is getting married. \* The Beauty Who Loved Him is book 3 in The Beast of Moscow saga. While it does end with a HFN, there is one more book to finish out the couple. TBWLH should only be read after book 1 and 2.

The universe isn’t done with Vaslav Pashkov just yet … Perhaps marrying a man whose secrets weren’t entirely revealed wasn’t the smartest choice of Vera Avdonin’s life, but her new husband makes the decision hard to regret. Even when it brings agony. Yet, not even wedded bliss and love is enough to keep Vera from peeling back the remaining layers of Vaslav’s past and truth—and there are always consequences for what she might find. The price of loving a man like this one is high. \* The Breath Before Forever is the final Vaslav/Vera book in The Beast of Moscow saga and should not be read as a standalone. Read after books 1, 2, and 3. Pregnancy Loss.
