Summary

Coming soon from USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard, a new standalone, full-length Turkish Mafia Romance novel。

Cinderella said to be kind, have courage, and always believe in a little magic。

She’s wrong。

To survive in my world, you have to be dead inside, be on guard at all times, and never dream of the impossible。
You never dream of anything because you don’t just get to stop working for the Polish mafia。

But you can be stolen from them。

Well, kind of。
When Gabriel Demir, head of the Turkish mafia, attacks my boss, I’m caught in the crossfire。
I’m taken captive, interrogated, and soon find myself in the position of maid again。 Only this time, it’s for the Turkish instead of Polish。
This time it’s for a dangerously attractive man and not the insane one I’ve known all my life。
This time I find myself fantasizing about my boss instead of dreaming of ways to escape。
This time I’m not threatened with pain and death but with pleasure。

But can I step out of the maid’s uniform and into a ballgown?
Do I dare cross that line just for a moment in the spotlight?

STANDALONE: A Turkish Mafia Romance full-length novel。

Do I dare cross that line just for a moment in the spotlight? This is the story of Lara Norwak and Gabriel Demir。 She is a maid for the Tymon Muzur and she works for him as a maid。 But when Gabriel storms the compound she is caught in the crossfire and is taken by Gabriel so that he can try to extract information and to recover。 He is the leader of the Turkish mafia and really wanting to get revenge against the Polish Mafia。 However she wasn't involved in anything that to where she would have heard any information that would be valuable to him and lucky for her his house staff has taken a real liking to her。 Gabriel too can tell how traumatized and broken she is and that she has not useful information to give him。 Lucky for Lara he doesn't take care of her like you would think he would and soon things get very very interesting。 I don't want to say much more about the story but the fact that I loved it so very much。 It was a book that hooks you from the beginning and will just melt your hearts。 Its a story of family and things lost and finding just exactly what you never knew you needed。 。。。more

This was my first book by Michelle Heard and it definitely made me want to read the other Sinners books! It wasn’t quite as dark as I expected but I’m pretty desensitized and don’t have any triggers。 If you do, you might want to check out the warnings。 Gabriel may be a dangerous man but he’s good to Lara from almost the very start。 He saves her from a life of misery and she works her way quickly into his heart。 I loved watching her heal and learn to trust in Gabriel。

Gabriel is by far one of my favorite anti hero’s by Michelle!!!!! I loved reading his book and fell in love instantly。 So good

Stolen by a Sinner (Sinners #3)by Michelle Heard ***5 stars***This story almost broke me。 What an emotional ride through pain, sorrow, and the will to fight back and claim your life。 Lara's been a prisoner her whole life, not knowing anything different。 She obeys so she doesn't die but the threat of being killed is always there。 When her boss's home is attacked and she's taken away, her fears grow even more。Gabriel is the head of the Turkish mafia and with revenge on his mind, he sees Lara as a Stolen by a Sinner (Sinners #3)by Michelle Heard ***5 stars***This story almost broke me。 What an emotional ride through pain, sorrow, and the will to fight back and claim your life。 Lara's been a prisoner her whole life, not knowing anything different。 She obeys so she doesn't die but the threat of being killed is always there。 When her boss's home is attacked and she's taken away, her fears grow even more。Gabriel is the head of the Turkish mafia and with revenge on his mind, he sees Lara as a means to an end。 That is, until his feelings change for his captive and secrets come to surface。 Lara begins to feel what it's like to be free。 Everything is new to her and she's like a child, learning so many new things and feelings。 It was heartbreaking to see the despair in her eyes but that all changes when Gabriel steps in。 Gabriel is rough and tough on the exterior but has a heart of gold for his loved ones, especially his grandmother。 She raised him into a man, and he doesn't take that for granted。 When the threat turns to his family and Lara, once again, he'll do anything he has to to protect them。 He's absolutely amazing and I loved him and Lara's relationship。 He shows you that there's definitely more than meets the eye。 。。。more

Gabriel and Lara's story completely captivated me! It's dark and gritty and filled with angst and turmoil yet it's also filled with redeeming hope, insatiable chemistry and love。 These two took me on an impossible journey that was at times harrowing but nonetheless beautiful as I witnessed them growing into their best selves。 I've loved every single one of these standalone books in the sinners series。 Gabriel and Lara's story completely captivated me!

This was a beautiful slow burn romance featuring a deeply damaged young woman finding her Prince Charming in the dubious shape of a Turkish mafia boss。 Lara was such a poignant character, alone since the age of twelve and little more than a slave in the household of a Polish Mafioso where she’d undergone horrific physical and psychological abuse on a daily basis。 When Gabriel Demir attacks the house in an attempt to kill her boss, shooting Lara in the process, he takes her hostage in an attempt This was a beautiful slow burn romance featuring a deeply damaged young woman finding her Prince Charming in the dubious shape of a Turkish mafia boss。 Lara was such a poignant character, alone since the age of twelve and little more than a slave in the household of a Polish Mafioso where she’d undergone horrific physical and psychological abuse on a daily basis。 When Gabriel Demir attacks the house in an attempt to kill her boss, shooting Lara in the process, he takes her hostage in an attempt to discover her boss’s whereabouts。 I actively hated Gabriel when he interrogated and threatened Lara but it wasn’t long before he realised just how broken and downtrodden she was。 He ultimately gives her a job in his home and for the first time since the loss of her mother she is actually shown some kindness。 To begin with she was terrified of further abuse as that’s what she was conditioned to expect but gradually she grows in confidence and flourishes under the gentleness shown to her from other members of the household and it was beautiful seeing Lara’s transformation like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis。 I loved how patient Gabriel was with Lara。 Despite being a dominant alpha hero he didn’t make any moves towards her that may have frightened her。 He was aware of the large age gap between them and showed her respect making it clear that if anything happened it would be her choice but the chemistry between them was obvious from the start even if neither recognised it for what it was。 There is some drama with the threat of Lara’s old boss hanging over her head which brings with it the appearance of some of the other members of the Priesthood and after reading this book I’m so looking forward to Victor’s story。 。。。more

How does each book get better and better?! I’m so obsessed with these mafia men and how they love their women。 Gabriel saves Lara from a horrible situation with a rival mafia boss and allows her into his home。 Their relationship grows and love blossoms from the darkness。 I admired Lara’s strength so much and seeing Gabriel soften towards her。 This slow burn/enemies to lovers was everything。 Five stars!

Yet another fascinating story in this incredible series! What I love about this series is each book focuses on a different mafia。 This time it’s the Turkish Mafia headed by a decadent man named Gabriel。 He rules with an iron fist, yet is fiercely protective of his family and those he loves。 When he comes across Lara, he has no idea that she will become a part of his life。 She is a young woman who has led an extremely hard life and feels she is never deserving of anything good in her life。 She is Yet another fascinating story in this incredible series!

Their story doesn’t start out as all hearts and flowers。 There is tragedy, anger, and sadness but as you read, you will notice a change in both Gabriel and Lara。 She just wants to please and he doesn’t understand the feelings he is starting to have for her。 This story tells you about how two people work to make a go of a relationship neither saw coming。 Their chemistry is so smoking that your fingers will burn as you turn the pages。 Yet again, this author made me fall in love with her characters。 An absolute must read!! 。。。more

Lara Nowak, a maid for the head of the Polish mafia, met Gabriel Demir, who was the head of the Turkish mafia during a shootout—literally! Her life changed from then on and so did his in a monumental way。My heart went out to Lara so much for everything she had endured, she was such a strong young woman with a very simplistic outlook on life that was quite miserable because of her life。 Was colliding with Gabriel was the best thing to happen to her?

Well I will let you read the book and find out but I will say Gabriel was gruff, demanding and yet, he was loving towards his own family—so a reasonably complex man in a way but then again, he was the head of the mafia。This fast-paced story with its fantastic action scenes, incredible drama and emotive writing just seemed to fly by so quickly。 I found it so hard to put it down and was totally absorbed the whole way through the book。 These characters were great including the secondary ones, Nisa was a total darling and I would love even a short story about her and other characters, too。 I think one of the highest compliments I could give an author is to say that I crave more words about her characters because I had become so invested in the story。This story was about second chances in life, a Cinderella story in a way but the evilness was much, much worse。 Ultimately, though, it was a wonderful romance that captures your heart and leaves you with a feeling of euphoria。 。。。more
