About this item

Rafael

Nobody touches what's mine without deadly consequences,
But when the most beautiful woman is brought to face my fury,
My dead heart suddenly begins to beat again.

There are no fairy tales in this life.
Beauty will never fall for the beast.
But this monster doesn't intend to let her go.

Everybody has a price.
It's just a question of currency.
My sweet little hacker can't be swayed by money,
But she will do whatever it takes to save her family.


Vasilisa

Kidnapped, trapped and forced into penance,
Stay and work for him,
Or my loved ones will face his wrath.

His name alone evokes dread and terror.
But my tremors have nothing to do with fear.
His scars make people turn away in horror.
But my eyes don't want to look anywhere else.

My captor,
My savior,
My beautiful beast.

*Beautiful Beast is the first book in the Perfectly Imperfect spinoff series - Mafia Legacy, but it can be read as a complete standalone. This is a full-length novel with no cheating and a guaranteed HEA.

Fate works in mysterious ways. Vasilisa and Rafael's story demonstrates a love that transcends appearances. They care for each other deeply without expecting anything in return. Rafael is willing to die at Sergei's hands to protect Vasilisa's loved ones. Despite his cunning and deceitful nature, his love is truly beautiful, as he makes her feel loved and seen. It's enough for her to stay without the extravagant things he can offer.

You have no idea how happy I am reading about the second generation. I miss everyone, including Igor and Grandpa Felix. I laughed so hard when Roman lost it when he called him "Dad". Definitely a highly recommended story and I can’t wait for more from this series.

Raff and Vasya have my entire heart! These two are so adorable it hurts. This is an age gap, forced proximity, mafia legacy romance. Please check the TW if you have any. This is book 1 in her legacy series tied to the Perfectly Imperfect series. Raff is a scarred man who has never had a woman look at him without fear or disgust in their eyes until Vasya comes along and rocks his world with her acceptance of his appearance. I don’t want to say too much and spoil the book but this has been one of my favorite reads of the year so far. You will not be disappointed.

Such a great author! I haven’t read one of her books that I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed yet. Definitely worth your while if besotted alpha men are your thing.

OMG! this series just keeps getting better! This series is my fav, hands down, by far over any other mafia series! Every couple, and their story lines are distinct and well plotted. (I’m a little confused by the 20 year time gap between book 1 and book 10, but it works! I hope this series just keeps going and going, or more family reunion epilogue to keep the entertainment going!

Cómo cada libro de Neva este también fue extraordinario, maravilloso. Un protagonista masculino con el cua tu corazón se arrugará y una valiente protagonista femenina que sacará lo mejor de él y un gran final.
