Synopsis
The Vasiliev
name is a powerful one.
We rule with
an iron fist and we do it well.
Being the
eldest, I am Father’s best hope at keeping us at the top of the food chain.
Everything I
do has purpose.
Everything I
do has reason.
Until her.
I play my
games thinking several moves ahead.
Power.
Power. Power.
Until her.
The next
move requires I marry and soon.
This will
strengthen us and secure our position.
But I am not

I am to wed

Problem is,
her younger sister is the one who awakens my dead heart.
It is her I
want in my bed and by my side forever.
Her. Her.
Her.
In this
game, though, it’s not about what I want.
But maybe it
can be about what she wants.
I am Vlad.
Vile.
Vicious. Villainous. Vasiliev.
And I will
win eventually.

Words
are elusive to me right now. I was just
transported to a dark, dangerous, action-packed world full of deceit, revenge
and outright violence. Through it all, an
illicit, clandestine, dangerous, almost obsessive love unfolds. Welcome to the
Russian Mafia where cunning, power and ruthlessness rule the day. How can a forbidden love ever thrive?
I’m
in awe. I’m speechless. I don’t know what I was expecting to read but
this- THIS was SO not it. It was so much
more. It was a completely absorbing, riveting,
exciting page-turning read. It was
violent, gritty, angsty as well as carnal and sexy. The mounting anticipation had my heart racing
wondering what would happen next.
All
the characters are flawed. They are
shaped and molded by complicated family dynamics and the life they must live. A few of the scenes gave me pause. The actions the characters chose to do
sometimes grated. I did not agree with
them or the measures they took to get what they wanted.
Vlad
is an antihero. He will not be denied and he will not lose. He is Vasiliev and he will not be crossed. He
is shrewd and plays everyone around him like a master puppeteer. He does not have much humanity or care. Until he meets Irina. She turns his world upside down on its axis.
She
is his sun and he circles her like a planet.
But unlike a planet, his orbit gets closer and closer until they crash
together and explode in a fiery explosion of passion and lust decimating anyone
or anything that gets in their way.
Irina
aka Shadow for being in the shadow of her sister, is an introvert. She is unaware of her beauty. Under the masterful hands and care of Vlad,
she breaks through her cocoon of self-doubt and security. She comes out of the shadows and comes into
her own. From a timid kitten to an
outright tigress.
This
story is the first in the series and is told is dual POV. It is captivating and engaging. In my opinion
they have started off this series with a BANG!
I’m eager to devour the next instalment.
I
received an ARC of this book. All
thoughts and opinions are my own.

My books all
tend to be darker romance, edge of you seat, angst filled reads. My advice to
my readers when starting one of my titles...prepare for the unexpected.
I have always
had a passion for storytelling, whether it be through lyrics or bed time
stories with my sisters growing up.
My mum would
always have a book in her hand when I was young and passed on her love for
reading, inspiring me to venture into writing my own. I tend to have a darker
edge to my writing. Not all love stories are made from light; some are created
in darkness but are just as powerful and worth telling.
When I'm not
lost in the world of characters I love spending time with my family. I'm a mum
and that comes first in my life but when I do get down time I love attending
music concerts or reading events with my younger sister.
