Wicked Proposal

Lozhkin Bratva, Book 1

By: Nicole Fox

Narrated by: Heather Firth, Walker Williams

Would you sleep with a villain to give your son a good life?

I’m a single mama. And since the day my son was born, I’ve made one promise: Never, ever miss a bedtime.

Then the devil offered me a million dollars to change my mind.

I said no. Actually, I said hell no. But then I started thinking about the holes in my son’s shoes…the growl in his empty belly on the nights I couldn’t even afford ramen…and I started to wonder what would happen if I took the deal.

One night. One night on the arm of Yulian Lozhkin, the most arrogant, beautiful, condescending, filthy rich S.O.B. that the city of New York has ever spat out.

In return, all my troubles would go away.

Or so he said.

But one night with Yulian wasn’t the end of my troubles—it was just the beginning of them.

Cliffhanger

3.5 stars for me. It started off really strong! Then we were shown that the MFC isn’t a total pushover in certain aspects of her life, like work. She is however, a complete doormat when it comes to herself and love. I wish she had more self respect . I will likely read the second book in hopes that she is a stronger leading character. The main male character shows her little respect throughout the entire book yet she falls in love with him anyway. I want to feel the connection. Hopefully it’s there in book 2.

Without the fantastic narrators, I might not have finished.
