amazing readThe book started a bit slow but loved it nevertheless。 The chemistry between these principal characters is GOOD。 Recommended for those who like marriage of convenience trope

This was ok。 The blurb & tropes really intrigued me， but I struggled to stay interested while reading at times。 I really liked Mikhail & his dominant alpha behavior- especially in the bedroom！ How he used his belt & that whip was HOT。 But he was also very sweet & caring w/Aria。 He spoiled her & made sure she was completely comfortable & happy when she was pregnant。 Seeing both his sides was great。 The things this man said had me swooning。 But there were a few things that had me a little confused This was ok。 The blurb & tropes really intrigued me， but I struggled to stay interested while reading at times。 I really liked Mikhail & his dominant alpha behavior- especially in the bedroom！ How he used his belt & that whip was HOT。 But he was also very sweet & caring w/Aria。 He spoiled her & made sure she was completely comfortable & happy when she was pregnant。 Seeing both his sides was great。 The things this man said had me swooning。 But there were a few things that had me a little confused。 I thought the reason why Aria went to him in the beginning was just dropped。 Also， unless I somehow missed it， I would’ve liked to have known how Tatiana even knew Mikhail， what was her connection to him。 I also thought the outcome & ending involving Volkov was rushed。 。。。more

This is my first book from this author， and boy， it was pretty good。 Haven't read a mafia driven book before， and knew it would have a good amount of violence in it， definitely did not disappoint with the action and strong characters。 Loved Aria's character， laughted more than once with her strong willed nature， and seriously love when the big bad men are brought to their knees when the right woman comes into their life。 Thought the ending was rushed a bit， and didn't necessarily care for the Ta This is my first book from this author， and boy， it was pretty good。 Haven't read a mafia driven book before， and knew it would have a good amount of violence in it， definitely did not disappoint with the action and strong characters。 Loved Aria's character， laughted more than once with her strong willed nature， and seriously love when the big bad men are brought to their knees when the right woman comes into their life。 Thought the ending was rushed a bit， and didn't necessarily care for the Tatiana twist， just thought it could have been written differently。 But overall I really enjoyed this book！I voluntarily reviewed an ARC copy of this book。 。。。more

great new seriesI could not put this book down。 Jane Henry has another hit。 Mikhail and Aria have great chemistry and they are great together。 I loved how they both needed each other and they built on that。 I can’t wait for Aleks story next。 There’s nothing better than the Bravta。

This book has it all！This mafia book has it all。 While it is a forced marriage it is not cringey at all。 Mikhail takes such good care of Aria and they quickly form a bond。 It is so sexy how Mikhailcan be so ruthless yet so gentle with Aria。 I loved watching their bond form and their story unfold。 I love the aspects of fear， danger， passion and love and they unfold to form a beautiful story。 The characters are so animated。 This story has strong dramatic content written so elegantly and the charac This book has it all！This mafia book has it all。 While it is a forced marriage it is not cringey at all。 Mikhail takes such good care of Aria and they quickly form a bond。 It is so sexy how Mikhailcan be so ruthless yet so gentle with Aria。 I loved watching their bond form and their story unfold。 I love the aspects of fear， danger， passion and love and they unfold to form a beautiful story。 The characters are so animated。 This story has strong dramatic content written so elegantly and the characters are so powerful that it makes this book an automatic 5 star read。 The DPOV helps you to understand the characters thoughts and emotions and you will rejoice with them。 I absolutely loved this book 。。。more

Great Alphahole Love StoryI think the story of Aria and Mikhail are going to be the beginning of my favorite series。 Passionate， Intense， Possessive and so very very Sweet。

This was an interesting read。 It was easy flowing which meant that it didn't lag in places。 Both Aria and Mikhail were great protagonists。 Aria wasn't the typical female character which was great to see。 I did wish that there was more push back。 There was potential with Aria wanting to keep her identity and not have it lost when she was married to Mikhail。 Understandably that would be difficult with Mikhail as he was a strong alpha male。 But I think Aria could have done it。 A great deal happens This was an interesting read。 It was easy flowing which meant that it didn't lag in places。 Both Aria and Mikhail were great protagonists。 Aria wasn't the typical female character which was great to see。 I did wish that there was more push back。 There was potential with Aria wanting to keep her identity and not have it lost when she was married to Mikhail。 Understandably that would be difficult with Mikhail as he was a strong alpha male。 But I think Aria could have done it。 A great deal happens in a relatively short space of time。 While that meant that the story maintained a fast pace， it would have been good to have some moments to breathe。 Overall the story was still good and engrossing。 。。。more

If you love dark Mafia romance with a forced marriage， then this is definitely for you。 Aria doesn't even know she is about to get married until she is asked to put her wedding dress on， but Mikhail is incredibly desperate and needs a wife now before his time runs out as the new pakhan of Bratva。 Aria needs protection ASAP after hacking her way into some serious FBI information。 I absolutely loved Aria because she's feisty and a smart a$$ and doesn't like to just follow the rules。 The relationsh If you love dark Mafia romance with a forced marriage， then this is definitely for you。 Aria doesn't even know she is about to get married until she is asked to put her wedding dress on， but Mikhail is incredibly desperate and needs a wife now before his time runs out as the new pakhan of Bratva。 Aria needs protection ASAP after hacking her way into some serious FBI information。 I absolutely loved Aria because she's feisty and a smart a$$ and doesn't like to just follow the rules。 The relationship built between Mikhail and Aria seems so genuine and full of love even through their circumstances of meeting and instantly getting married。 The chemistry quicky becomes hot and steamy with a touch BDSM。 Their quick and forced marriage is by far the definition of forced marriage。 I didn't care too much about the forces marriage and the controlling part of Mikhail， but I did really enjoy reading how their relationship really build between the two of them。Thank you to Jane Henry and Valentine PR for the opportunity to read this ARC！ 。。。more

Such a great bratva enemies to lovers book！ Aria finds herself in some trouble and is needing protection。 She finds herself in Mikhail’s office begging for help。 With Mikhail needing a wife and Aria needing protection - put two and two together and you have a quick forced but arranged marriage 🥰Loved the whole book from start to finish - not a ton of spice but a great plot and the twists and turns that were thrown in were great as well！

I loved this book so much， surprisingly I didn't expect the ending at all。 The spicy scenes， the suspense and the whole mafia world was perfectly developed。 I must admit that I felt as if I had been inside the book living through all the danger of Aria。 A possessive， dangerous man。 That's the perfect package。 I loved this book so much， surprisingly I didn't expect the ending at all。 The spicy scenes， the suspense and the whole mafia world was perfectly developed。 I must admit that I felt as if I had been inside the book living through all the danger of Aria。 A possessive， dangerous man。 That's the perfect package。 。。。more

4。5 ⭐️This was a great story！ Mikhail is all growly， dominant and violent…except when it comes to a certain dark haired hacker。 Aria is so good at her job that she finds herself basically being hunted。 Mikhail needs a wife to secure his position and Aria needs protection。 Win-Win right？ Not without gunshots， attempted kidnappings and explosions！ Can’t wait for more of the Romanov brothers！

I enjoyed this book so much。There's suspense， sexiness， a mafia bad boy and a kickass young lady。I adored Mikhail and Aria。They had the perfect push and pull together。Amazing chemistry。 And both are strong characters。She's an absolute beast when it comes to hacking。She rules that domain。And it was so much fun getting to see her in her element and besting the men。Aria is also down on her luck in many ways。 But read the book to find out all the details。She's sweet， kind and loyal。 But she's also c I enjoyed this book so much。There's suspense， sexiness， a mafia bad boy and a kickass young lady。I adored Mikhail and Aria。They had the perfect push and pull together。Amazing chemistry。 And both are strong characters。She's an absolute beast when it comes to hacking。She rules that domain。And it was so much fun getting to see her in her element and besting the men。Aria is also down on her luck in many ways。 But read the book to find out all the details。She's sweet， kind and loyal。 But she's also courageous and intelligent。Mikhail is the new pakhan of the Romanov family。He's ruthless， without mercy and deadly。He's also loyal and extremely protective of his family。 He takes his role as their guardian and protector very seriously。And he's also in need of a wife。 Enter Little Hacker。I enjoyed their banter and laughed at Aria's inner monologue。 。。。more
