About this listen
One wardrobe malfunction. Two people who don’t belong together. Three awful words: “Be my wife."
Everyone else is at this party to marry the host. I’m only here until I can get a ride home. When my dress rips in the world’s worst-timed wardrobe malfunction, I go find somewhere quiet to fix it.
So I’m standing there in nothing but my heels when, as my luck would have it, the door opens....
And the man of the hour walks in.
I wish I could say I played it cool. But it’s been a looong time since anyone has seen me in my birthday suit, much less the hottest man I’ve ever laid eyes on.
All I want to do is fix my dress, click my heels three times, and be back on my couch in fuzzy slippers. But Ivan has other ideas.
He’s decided who he’s taking to the altar...and I don’t have a choice but to say “I do”.
Cognac Villain is book one in the Pushkin Bratva duet. Ivan and Cora’s story concludes in book two, Cognac Vixen!

Charming. Devastatingly handsome. Ridiculously rich. Kristoff Baldwin came without warning. He made me an offer I couldn’t refuse, and before I could even realize the impact he was making, I was too far gone, despite knowing the consequences of falling. A future together was the impossible dream. My past haunted me and even he had ghosts of his own. Then everything changed when his past came after me and my daughters.

Story
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.

What I'm not used to is the man who comes to my rescue. Adrik Tasarov is a tall glass of gorgeous. He's got a jawline that could cut glass and eyes that could melt steel. Best of all: my fiancé is absolutely terrified of him. So when Adrik asks me to dance, I say yes. When he asks me to do a little more than that, I say it again. Then comes the make-or-break moment. Adrik offers me a fake marriage to get me out of my real one.

Story
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.

I’d never bend to a man’s will or be used as a pawn. Not again. The moment I tempted the fates and played with fire, life spiraled out of control. My only way of survival was to trust again. But could I?

Sold to the mob. Four words I never thought I'd utter. Worse, it was my father who did the unthinkable. When the creditors come to collect, I'm handed over to the most ruthless man in New York City—Luca Valentino. The head of the notorious Kings is as gorgeous as he is lethal. Dark, possessive, and violent. Nothing like the boy I grew up with, my dead brother's best friend.

Unfortunately, life has other plans because I’m still married, and Cash James is the billionaire playboy standing between me and my dream promotion.

Housekeeper for a stunningly handsome, male-model billionaire? Yep, that’s my job and it’s as dreamy as it sounds. I get to live in his ridiculously huge mansion, and all I have to do is take care of his mom and daughter, who are practically family. To top it off, the notoriously bossy Mr. King has been away for business since I started. But he came home today. Liam King looks like he stepped out of a GQ magazine, and the way he undresses me with his eyes should be illegal. He ignites my body. Every part of it. But It doesn’t matter how tempting he is. I can’t have him.

Six years ago, I was supposed to get married. But the night before the wedding, my groom-to-be showed me sides of himself I'd never seen before. I might've died in that hotel room... if Mikhail Novikov hadn't burst in to save me. Handsome, strong, capable knight in shining armor—sign me up, right? Wrong. Because Mikhail wasn't just the hero I never knew I needed... he was also way more dangerous than I ever could've known. But for one night, I let myself do something I never should've done. It was worth it—several times over, if you catch my drift.

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.

How did I end up playing fake fiancée to a runaway criminal? Well, I was supposed to get married today—but that’s a whole other story.The part that matters is that I took the car and ran, still in my wedding dress. I promptly crash said car into a bridge, and when I get out to check the damage… I'm disoriented and fall right into the river below. That should’ve been it for little old me. Goodnight. Close the curtains. Roll the credits. Drowned by my own wedding dress—how morbidly appropriate. But then someone saves me.

Good not great
A bit long. I was getting into the characters and then it seems they started acting like they were young teenagers. I thought mobsters had a lot of protection around. Did the protection get killed off? Is that how the girls or women got taken?

Cora and Ivan
This is the start of a new Pushkin Bratva series and tells Ivan Pushkin's story. He is heir to the Bratva, his father, Otets is still Pakhan although Ivan has taken over much of the running of the Bratva. Ivan has struck a deal with his father, he's promised his father that he will marry a suitable woman, if Otets allows his sister, Anya marry Lev - a Bratva soldier whom his father considers beneath her status. When Ivan marries his father will formally step down.
Cordelia St. Clair aka Cora left home to work as a waitress after her stepfather tried to force her to marry Mikhail Sokolov, an obnoxious man who gives her the creeps. Since leaving home and getting a job she has made two friends who also work as waitresses at a dive called Quintano’s Jorden and Francia Delacour. Cora is a very complex character with an equally complex past but her present life isn’t any better. But then she has a wardrobe malfunction and meets a sexy hot guy. But things are set to go downhill even more in this amazing hot mafia read.
Ivan and Cora share an incredible connection, their chemistry is palpable and hot, and the sex between them is incendiary, especially when their engagement/marriage is supposed to be fake. I loved Ivan for the strength of loyalty he feels towards his sister, his second and Cora. I love how possessive and protective he is. On the whole, I liked Cora but felt she should have been more honest with Ivan about her past, if she had he could perhaps have been better prepared. The storyline is full of suspense, conflict, intrigue, action, drama and romance, the characters are well-drawn and interesting.
The surprise ending means I can't wait to listen to the next book.
I had previously read this book but listening to it narrated by Hayden Hall and Walker Williams lifted an incredible story to a much higher level as all the characters were brought to life beautifully by these two talented actors.
