Story
Eleven years ago, I met him. A year later, I was betrothed to him. Now he’s come to claim me, slaughtering anyone standing in his way. My husband-to-be is a monster from a family as ruthless and powerful as mine, a man who deals in violence and destruction...a man terrifyingly like my father. For more than a decade, he’s stalked me, shadowing my life. I fear him. I hate him. Worst of all, I want him. My name is Alina Molotova, and Alexei Leonov is a fate I can’t escape.

Virtuous. Kind. Patient. These were words never associated with Gabriel Saint. He was a monster. The devil that haunted the city of Redhill. And he had found me. I managed to hide for a while from my past, present, and future. But I should have known they’d come looking. After all, I had the heir of the city in my arms, and if I know anything about the ruling crime family of this city, it’s that family comes before all else. When Gabriel comes for me, I fight but know it’s useless, and when he forces me to be his wife, I vow to make his life as miserable as possible.

I got pregnant from a one-night stand. I wasn’t going to tell the father...until I walked into the office and found out he’s my new boss. Here’s some advice: Don’t sleep with your boss. Here’s some more: Don’t sleep with your married boss. And while I’m at it: Don’t sleep with your married, dangerous, billionaire, completely incapable-of-feeling boss because all he’s going to do is break your heart and your body and leave you to cry in the ashes. But I’ve never been good at taking my own advice.

Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

Of two things I'm certain: When something sounds too good to be true, it is; and when Alexius Del Rossa makes you a deal, you run far away and never look back. Me? I didn't run. I stayed. I opened that envelope, and I accepted his offer. Why? Because my life was a mess and on a downward spiral to a big, fat nothing. And he just offered me everything in exchange for six months of my life. It was supposed to be a simple arrangement, but I learned the hard way that nothing is simple when it comes to Alexius.

I made a vow to protect her when we were just kids. First, from the monsters hiding under the bed and then the ones roaming the world freely. My obsession with Dove wasn’t normal. It toed the line on psychotic, but my love for her overshadowed that. I’d killed, destroyed, and hurt those who had done her wrong. I’d watched her for years wanting to claim her but refusing to. I was both her guardian angel and a demon lurking in the shadows. She was mine, even though she didn’t know it yet.

young adult
I normally don't leave reviews, but with the short summary description, I thought I should share. The summary description pretty much accurately depicted the book. However, it failed to mention the girl was 18 and in college. The bodyguard was 25. The book basically followed the thoughts of an 18 year old virgin and 25 year old bodyguard living together and lusting after each other for about 7 and a half hours. They finally gave into temptation and there was about an hour of them living in sexual bliss. Then for about the last hour, there was a twist. Then the HEA. I feel like it was drawn out. It felt like it took forever to get through and I normally finish books in one day. This book took about 4 days to finish. Although, that could be because I just wasn't into it after realizing what it was about. I kept hoping something would pick up or garner some sort of interest, sadly, it didn't.

AMAZING
Out of all the free audio books I've come across this one HAS TO BE MY FAVORITE! It was beautifully written and the plot was insane. I finished it in 3-4 days cause I just had to know what was gonna happen next. Yes its your normal girl/bodyguard romance with loads of spice, but I was so different. The plot had so many twists and turns and I wish there was a book about Zeke before he found MIa. BUT I loved this one overall. Thank you to the author for creating one of the best Mafia Romances I have read yet AND huge shout out to Heather and Tor for bringing these characters to life

Zeke and Mia
enjoyed! good story, forbidden love mixed in with loss and personal growth. learning your inner strength to question your circumstances and stand up for yourself and not being bullied into the wrong life and love choices for you even in a situation where you feel trapped. a surprise twist towards the end liven things up and round out the story to get their HEA. both narrators were great also.
I was looking for Mia and Zeke's story after reading Cage and Blair's book and was first introduced to Mia as Blair's best friend at rival blackthorne.
Blair is mentioned a few times here but Mia and Zeke appeared in her story more, which was "the jock" book 6 in the Northwoods University series narrated by Teddy Hamilton and Ava Lucas

This was such a good book! Woo! Right out the gate the book starts off spicy and just goes on from there! This book is defiantly a bad boy only good for one girl type of romance. 10/10 would recommend if you like spicy books mixed with bad boy vibes.

ML Was A Bad Guy, Sex & Possessiveness Didn’t Change That
Zeke was a killer who murdered for the mob boss Dad on demand. Of course the FL (Mira) was a younger, college girl and the cliche virgin who had No Clue that her father was involved in organized crime to fund his lavish lifestyle. Seriously? She didn’t question his profession or the source of his wealth at all? If she had always lived in the lap of luxury, then one might forgive her lack of inquisitiveness. However before her Mom passed, they were living hand to mouth.
The fact that Zeke and Mira were thrown together alone in an apartment and Zeke’s life depended on him keeping her safe, would not be the idea of a careful and calculating Mafia Daddy. Inevitably Zeke started thinking with his dick just as one would expect in this setup. This was far fetched because her dad would have sent an entourage, not a single man in her age group.
Narrators were great, though making it tolerable.
The fact that Mira embraced the family business was a surprise to me. Why would anyone choose to go
