5.0 out of 5 stars I enjoy a good story with a bit of danger.

I don't want to be drowned in it, but done right it adds a touch of spice.

Luk is Russian mob. Maura was born into the Irish mob but since her father's death has led a miserable life controlled by her sleazy stepmother.

When Maura arrives at a social function demanded by that stepmother, she finds out it is her wedding, to one of the most dangerous members of the Russian Bratva, Luk Ivanov.

She doesn't even meet Luk until she is brought to him at the altar set up in the back, in front of all those people. And barely moments after they are married, there is an attempt on her life. Saved by none other than her new husband...

Sheltered by her father, hidden away by her stepmother, the reality of mafia life slaps her with unexpected understanding.

An intriguing story with some unexpected surprises.

This book was good. The spice was OK but the story jumped around so much and time kept going forward so the character build up between the two was a bit lost
It was a quick read

Maura went to a party not really knowing what it was for. Imagine her surprise when her stepmother tells her it's Maura's wedding day and she's marrying a stranger. Luc has wanted Maura ever since he laid eyes on her and as luck would have it her step brother got into debt gambling and now Luck gets Maura as his bride. Great read!

This book started out strong. Maura was forced to marry Luk but they were instantly attracted to each other. He wanted to marry her, don’t know what his true feelings for her were. But he was in this all the way. Once Maura saw him, she figured she’d make the best of this marriage.

The marriage was consummated on their wedding night and from that point on there was no lies, deceit, or duplicity. Things were going well. But what made me give this book 3 stars was her deceit as time went on.

At the wedding reception there was an attempt made on her life. Luk stopped it and vowed to find out who would dare to kill his bride. Well there were several more attempts and Maura decides that she wants to get to the bottom of this herself.

She recognizes one of her assailants and goes to her old neighborhood after sneaking out of the house where there was yet another attempt. I mean duh, if she had information tell your husband the “Bratva Boss” who’s already investigating this. Later, she gave her sister in law the slip along with the bodyguards.

How stupid can you be to continue to lie and connive, dodge and ditch, putting people in more danger than they had to be.

Elena, her sister-in-law told her the first day she met her how important it was to always tell Luk the truth. And she didn’t. Yes, they had to get to know each other. But there was no reason to distrust each other. Their relationship might as well had been love at first sight as easy as they got along and fell into a groove of married life and normalcy. (As much normalcy as you can have being a Bratva boss or being married to one)

I just couldn’t believe, she ran off again. Why won’t she confide in her husband and stop leaving him in the dark. He’s doubling security details, all to keep her safe and flounces that in his face. To hell with your efforts, I need to do this on my own. How dumb.

I had the hardest time reading to the end because I really couldn’t get pass her stupidity.

Maura's stepmother brings her to a party like event. She's there a little while when she learns that this is to be her wedding to someone who she has never met. She doesn't put up a fuss and goes along with the wedding. Not long after the wedding her groom takes her upstairs to consummate the marriage. Her husband Lukyan is a member of the Ivanov mafia family. Much excitement with kidnappings and intruders in their house Very enjoyable hot story.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good break from my usual
Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2024
It’s been quite some time since I’ve read any mafia type books but this one was good. There were quite a few intense scenes and a few parts that infuriated me. It is a bit predictable though and I wasn’t fond of the back and forth in the plot just when you think everything is going well. Nonetheless, it gave me the reprieve I was looking for from my typical spicy books lol

Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2024
This book should have been named Dark Princess as I believe Maura, the main female lead is the center of the story. The plot has enough twists and turns to keep you engaged and rooting for the "good" bad guys. I still find it hard to believe that I find the good guys to be the Russian mob, but so it goes. Good story; well written with only a couple of typos which I reported. Enjoy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Potential is there for more stars
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2024
First, let me say this could easily become a 4 star review.

However, there are basic editorial issues throughout the book. Some are extremely easy fixes and I knocked off a full star because they are glaringly obvious, most specifically consistent failure to apply quotation marks st the beginning of remarks. Second, the failure to look over sentences to make sure words weren’t missing. Thus, correctly describing/relaying the story. I noted the one specific instance where an internal conversation happens - “want me to go to jail.” When it should be “wants me to go to the jail.” There were many more, but I got tired of identifying them. I’m a reader not the editor. I was going to DNF, but I felt I should give the storyline a fair shot.

I also want to talk about the Series name. I feel if a reader who was looking for an Age Play book might be very surprised it isn’t one and who feel mislead by the use of “daddies”. This read is more of a light erotica/bdsm book. In fact, the author seemed to not know the direction of BDSM relationship she wanted to display as it was varied throughout the book.

It’s definitely an interesting twisted Cinderellaish storyline, but it drags in places.

Here is my romance book review:

Action ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Believable storyline & overall plot ⭐️⭐️
Entertainment ????????????
Spicy ????️ ????️
Triggers ????????
Writing style & written format ⭐️ (needs editing)

Overall a solid 2/5

Note the lower the ???? the better, meaning not many triggers & defines it as a romantic read not dark romance.????
