Publisher's summary

She betrayed my family—I will make her pay. The sweet redhead in our building isn’t as innocent as we thought.

She brought a Fed into our circle. Got my twin brother shot.

Now, she will pay. I’m putting her in charge of nursing him back to health.

If he dies, she dies. That’s what I told her, anyway.

Of course, I wouldn’t actually harm her.

Our beautiful neighbor is already under my skin.

But that won’t stop me from punishing her, then touching her in all the ways I vowed I wouldn’t.

She’s ruined my peace. Become a distraction I can’t afford.

I want to keep her under my control.

I need to keep her out of my heart.

Emotional roller coaster!!

I love this Bratva series and Dima does not disappoint. I am a sucker for the strong, intelligent ones. Natasha is a cute community member that goes about getting Dima’s attention the wrong way and causes his brother to be shot. Secluded together while his brother heals, their journey is full of anger, angst and dominance. Benjamin’s voice really captured Dima’s intelligence and his geeky side while portraying Natasha’s innocence. Such a great audio book!!

Dima's story

Dima is being a martyr for a long, long dead girlfriend. He thinks he needs to forsake love forever! Natasha worms he way under his skin and though his mind says no, his heart is all in
whether he knows/admits it. Situations take an ugly turn. Will there be time for their hea. or is their chance gone??? Alex was a shocker!!! I've read this series but the audio version adds depth and perspective to a great story. The narrator was superb and audio production was top quality . I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion.

Storylines are amazing!

One of my favorite series! I can’t wait for more! I love how none of their stories are repetitive

A tempting tale filled with plenty of feels

Another excellent entry in a series that is as steamy as it is thrilling. This is Dima and Natasha's story. A strong vein of emotion runs through this tempting tale, so you can expect to receive plenty of feels. The smartly crafted combination of drama, intensity, angst, danger, action, twists, humor, kink and heart is potent and irresistible. I fell really hard for these two. I could genuinely sympathize with Dima, but boy, oh boy, did my heart simply ache for Natasha. Their chemistry absolutely sizzles as the sparks fly between this duo. When paired with raw sweetness, deep emotions and a rich, painful poignancy; you have yourself a romance that easily moves you emotionally, while making you feel the heat from the very edge of your seat.The narrator delivers a solid performance that helps pull you in and fully immerse you into the story.

The Audio Provided A More Emotional Experience

****Audio review 8/27/23****
I thought the audio added a nice level of emotion to the story. The funny thing was that the sympathy I felt for Natasha lessened. She seemed to become more irritating for some reason.

I honestly can't say if it had to do more with me or the narration. I only know I felt less patience and sympathy for her. I don't think it took anything away from the book at all. I just think of it as providing a different perspective.


****Ebook Review 9/19/21****
I felt badly for Dima because he was so firmly locked in his past. I thought it was so interesting that Dima seemed older to me in this book than in previous books, and Natasha seemed so much younger. I am definitely going to have to re-read this one.

I also felt badly for Natasha because she kept putting herself out there and had to deal with Dima's indecisiveness. There were quite a few steamy scenes between the two. I did have some questions about the background search Dima conducted. He was the hacker, but all it took was the mention of a name and Ravil had the whole story.

An entertaining read, but something was missing for me. I can't quite put my finger on it. It was missing that certain something I got from the earlier books. I just didn't feel the same level of intensity. I am looking forward to Nikolai's book.

I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
