Publisher's summary

Nina

Charming, captivating, seductive—and a cold-blooded killer. I married the Pakhan of the Russian Bratva anyway. I had to, it was part of the deal.

Now, I’m faking marital bliss as I tremble with fear, and I cannot wait to be out of the clutches of this ruthless man.

Roman

I get anything I desire, and I want this perfectly imperfect little manipulator. The way she can deceive anyone into believing she’s crazy in love with me just makes me want her even more.

She doesn't know it yet, but I am not letting her go.

The deal is off.

From Start to Finsh

Listened to it in one go. I wasn't as excited about Nina until she started showing her caring nature toward Ramon. This was a very delicate but strong story about the challenges of a young leader and his contracted special wife. Definitely love in the most unlikely place.

The talent for the narration brought made me lose my breath a few times.

Great!

This is not a typical dark mafia romance, it is more of a “beginner” version - however it is a good story, beautifully narrated (such lovely voices, perfectly matched to characters!) Highly recommend this!

A little different in the best way

I always tend to enjoy the very protective, all consuming love these men seem to have. It can be Ott but it makes the story have flare and passion. Great first listen and great casting!

I loved it

I am in love with the Roman. It is a great listen I recommend this if you are into cheesy happy ending romance stories

Great Audiobook!

Well written, fantastic narrators, good storyline, and like-able characters. Well done!
My only issue with the book is that it wasn’t long enough (for me); I tend to like a 10+ hour book with some more character development and chemistry. As I look through the other books in this series it seems they are all under 7-8 hours like this one is.
Still 100% worth a credit. Don’t pay full price for the book though because it’s like $28.
