Publisher's summary

I can buy my secretary’s submission—or I can take it the hard way.
My ex-wife’s fatal car crash left me with a cruel gift:
A daughter I never knew I had.

I am a billionaire. A mob boss. A titan.
Not a babysitter.

I need a woman’s touch to help raise my daughter.
My secretary doesn’t know it yet, but her life is about to change.
Charlotte is gorgeous. Feisty.

And best of all…
Desperate.

So from now on, we’re going to do things my way.
It starts with five little words:
“Let me own you, kitten.”

Kostya is a stand-alone single-dad mafia billionaire romance.

Holy heck

This was a good one and kept me hooked all the way through. Kinda wish for an epilogue meh. The narration was a bit off sound wise, a change in volume but I’m still here

Good read

Story was a good listen and had enough highs and lows to keep you listening. There were a couple eye roll worthy moments, because honestly anyone with common sense wouldn’t try some of the stuff the female main character did but if you can get past that you’ll enjoy the overall story.

I want to smack Charlotte

I did like the story but it didn't make sense to me at times because why in the world would Charlotte follow him to a hotel with a recorder. Her plan was clearly not thought out. what was she going to do. Her mother was nuts and her sister was terrible. Then the book just ended.

Good listen

I like the story line but did not like the ending it was so not final the description of the story maybe led to a different storyline but this was not disappointing just different

Kostya is a heart throb

Kostya is everything he should be.... the heroine... not so much. It's hard for me to believe that someone so opposed to babysitting and completely unconcerned about the child having just lost her Mother is somehow great with her from the start ... The h doesn't have any sweet and motherly internal dialogue for most of the book..When she thinks about the child it is sterile; she's more concerned about her bills, her hot boss and her mother... all reasons she needs to do a good job with the girl. Her feeling for the baby pop up out of no where... somewhere between amazing sex and orgasms...

Amazing!!

Loved it!! All of her mobster books are so very good. I have enjoyed each on.

Charlotte and Kostya

This book was very good. Kostya was every bit the Bratva boss, especially when he said he would kill Charlotte if he had to. After his ex left him, he didn't want to love again. He felt it made him weak and he could be very cold at times. She died and left him with a very young daughter. Charlotte worked for him but he offered her a huge raise to take care of his daughter. He was attracted to her and never acted on it until the night she goes to the house that sat at the back of his mansion's property because she saw the light on. Later in the book things happen, thanks to her mother, that make Kostya feel he cannot trust her and she may need to be eliminated. The ending felt like it was wrapped up too quickly. Timothy G Little and Danielle Lorentz did a great job with the narration.

Not really sure if this should be a 2 or 3 star.

This was just okay. In the beginning I felt like there was something building between the main characters but then things just fell flat after about 30% into the story. My other issue is that the whole mafia storyline just seemed to far fetched.

Kostya

This was an interesting read🎧📕the narration was okay…I have a question why is it so hard to have all the male voices done by a male and all the female voices done by a female? It’s not hard but yet very few books do it well, ugh, this book🎧would have been so much better! Pay Attention Authors…The narrators you choose are so important…They’re literally selling your book to the masses! If they don’t do a great job neither does your book!
The storyline was okay but it lacked more spice and the ending was so rushed and incomplete almost like an oversight. Is it worth the credit? No, not enough substance to keep it interesting.

Narration.

Narration did not help this weak silly story. Could have been reading a children’s bedtime story. He wants to bed her but will have to kill her. I really can’t describe how absolutely silly this story is. Such a disappointment from one of my fave authors. Nope, only half way through and can’t listen another minute. Waste of a credit. 😤
