VBT: Ven


Purchase Links
Amazon US | UK | CA | AU

The Vetrov name comes with expectation.

My role in this world is simple: do as Father asks and live my life how he planned it.

My future is already written: run the empire.
Old Values. Old Rule. Old Money.
Until her.

Everything I do lacks purpose.
Everything I do is empty.
Women. Money. Power. It meant nothing.
Until her.

When the Volkov rose showed up at my home a disgraced package, hand-delivered by a Vasiliev prince, I began paving my own path.
I vowed to make her bloom once more.

She consumed me.
Her. Her. Her.

But you can’t love a rose and expect not to be damaged by her thorns.
She cut me too deep.
And I bled out.
My soul fled.
All that’s left is a cold, calculating monster.

I am Veniamin.
Volcanic. Victorious. Valiant. Vetrov.
When you enter my world to play games, prepare to lose.
In the end, I always find the thorn in my side, and I pluck it right out.


MY REVIEW ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



Ven by K Webster and Ker Dukey is the second book in a wonderfully sinful and addicting series

Diana Volkov has been let down and betrayed by every male she has ever trusted... Suffering from the loss of everything she once held dear, she turns to an old friend, Ven.

Ven has been obsessed and in love with Diana since she first kissed him many years ago. Now that there is nothing standing in his way, he is willing to do anything and everything to make her his.

Will Diana trust Ven enough to let down her walls or will she suffer her biggest loss to date?



Ven was epic and visceral. Totally consuming.

It is a no holds barred read that I enjoyed immensely.

Diana: I am flabbergasted by how complex her character is. She is brilliant, self-sufficient and strong-Absolutely solid. I think I may just have a lady boner for her.

She is a compelling character.

I love that even through her hatred for Vika she shows compassion and caring toward her in a time of need. Diana will go down as one of the best heroines written to date.

Ven, Ven, Ven. He is my love to hate him hero.

I cannot forgive what he did to Kira. But, I loved that he wants to protect Diana and did not judge her as so many of the other men in her life had. I also absolutely loved the way he loved Diana. Completely, fully and without reserve.

A mix between The Hunger Games and Game of Thrones, Ven will blow your socks off.

I received an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Please note that this is the second book in a series of standalones that are interconnected.  The first is Vlad.

About Ker Dukey

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.

FAVORITE READ THIS MONTH


My favorite read this month, HANDS DOWN is The Girl & Her Ren by Pepper Winters

“What do you do when you write down all your secrets? No…that’s not enough. What do you do when you write down all your secrets and the one person who should never read them does?
I’ll tell you what you do.
You hope.”

REN
Ren didn’t know the meaning of love until he took Della for his own.
To begin with he hated her, but as the months bled into years, he learned the opposite of hate, dedicating his life to giving her everything.
Every sacrifice, every gift, he gave wholeheartedly.
But then love turned to lust and ruined everything.

DELLA
I was stupid to write my secrets down, but I’d been stupid before so it was nothing new.
I couldn’t blame him, hate him, fix him.
I tried to move on without him.
But no matter what I did, I couldn’t seem to delete the secrets I’d written.
Until something happened.
Until he came back and read my stupid secrets.
And nothing was the same after that.

MOST ANTICIPATED READS FOR JULY


There are SO many to choose from but if I think ahead, the ones I’m desperately looking forward to are:


Heartless by Willow Winters


From USA Today bestselling author W Winters comes an emotionally captivating and thrilling, romantic suspense.

At first, his words were harsh and his touch cold.
I didn’t want to be in his presence any more than he wanted me there. 

I knew he was a dangerous man and he could destroy me if only he wanted to.

That’s not what he wanted though. It’s not what he needed.
It’s not what I desired either.

It’s so easy to get lost in the touch of a man who’s powerful and unattainable.
A man who wants for nothing … except me.

Soft touches and stolen glances made my blood heat and my heart beat in a way I never knew it could.

Yes, it’s easy to fall into a haze of lust and desire.
But there’s a reason his reputation is one of a heartless man.


And I should have known better



Giovanni by Natasha Knight

I’m the right-hand man of the mafia king.
She’s a girl with a past she’s desperate to hide.

But I need something from her.
And I know she won’t help me. Not willingly.
She’ll need some persuading.

Lucky for her, I can do that.

Something about this girl makes me curious, though, and it’s more than the scars that line her back. She’s on the edge of something. Something bad. She’s like a perfect, beautiful doll coming apart at the seams. And the last string is about to snap.

She thinks I’ll hurt her. Break her.
But thing is, she’s already broken. And she and I, we’re two peas in a pod. She’s my match, the perfect opponent. She’ll fight me to the finish, but I’ll win. I always do.

Because I’m a man used to getting what I want. And what I want is her.

Author’s Note: Giovanni is a STANDALONE dark mafia romance set in the Benedetti Brothers Mafia World. It’s an emotionally gripping enemies-to-lovers romance with a hard-earned HEA.
