She was a pawn.
Leverage.
Simple. Strategic. Necessary. A means to an end in a war that had nothing to do with her.
Then she looked at me like she wasn’t afraid.
She is softness in a world built on blood. Light in a life that taught me mercy is weakness. Now she’s under my roof, sitting at my table, sleeping in my bed
Too close. Too tempting.
Too dangerous to want.
I tell myself she’s only here because I need her.
A bargaining chip.
A calculated move.
But the longer she stays, the more that lie cracks.
Because I’m no longer thinking about what she can get me.
I’m thinking about who might try to take her.
And what I’ll do to them if they do.
She was never supposed to matter.
Now she’s the one weakness I can’t afford—and the one thing I refuse to give up.

I really enjoyed this book. Matteo takes one look at a woman and falls in love. Little did he know he would have an alliance with the Russians.

A great read, especially if you enjoy mafia romances. This is a mafia-lite book in that there is very little violence on page. I loved Matteo aka Mr. Grey and how he found his queen in the most unsuspecting way. A nice steamy romance that I’d recommend. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series!

This is an incredible book. It’s extremely well written. Matteo’s father passes. This places Matteo at the helm. More pressure, more decisions, and more responsibility. Now, he is expected to marry and produce an heir. This is the absolute last thing Matteo wants to do. That is, until he walks into a club and sees Alena. He knows he wants her. She will be his. But there’s an interesting twist when it comes to Alena. Guess you’ll need to read this book to discover the answer. You definitely won’t be disappointed. I recommend this book and this author.
