About this listen
I bargained with the Bratva—my brother’s life for my own.
They offered me a deal: thirty nights for my brother's life.
Thirty nights...with him. Nikolai Novikov.
The charming but dangerous loanshark.
He’s deceptively smooth. Sinfully handsome. Addictive, even. But it's only an illusion.
I vow to give him nothing more than I promised, yet he sees right through me. When it comes to my heart, all bets are off...and winner takes all.

Story
I warned you. I told you not to set foot in my casino again. I told you to stay away. Because if I see those hips swinging around my suite, I’ll pin you against the wall and take you hard. And once I make you mine, I’m not going to set you free. I’m king of the Vegas underground, and I take what I want. So run. Stay the hell away from my casino. Or I’ll tie you to my bed. Put you on your knees. Break you. So come to me, beautiful, if you dare....

Story
My alpha ordered me to keep away from humans. My wolf is highly unstable. Nearly feral. I can’t be trusted around civilians. Certainly not with the lovely kindergarten teacher whose scent drives me wild. But she needs a fake boyfriend for a weekend wedding trip. A big guy to intimidate her ex. How can I refuse? I won’t be directly disobeying an order, because it won’t be a real date. It will be a nice clean mission. We’ll have separate rooms. I’ll keep my wolf on a tight leash. And no matter how much I want to, I will not mark and claim the sweet human as mine.

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.

Story
Our first meeting was at a nightclub, and it was something straight out of my most romantic fantasies. My ovaries exploded at the sight of the Russian God. And by God, I mean he was ripped, tall, dark, and deadly attractive. There were enough sparks between us to light up a city. Then an explosion blasted through the nightclub, and we got trapped together for three hours, sharing our most personal details...everything but our names. Two years later, our second meeting is the complete opposite of the first. It's clear Misha Petrov, a Russian enforcer for the bratva, despises me.

I caught the attention of a monster. I didn’t ask for it. Didn’t even see it coming. But the moment I do, it’s too late. Killian Carson is a predator wrapped in sophisticated charm. He’s cold-blooded, manipulative, and savage. The worst part is that no one sees his devil side. I do. And that will cost me everything. I run, but the thing about monsters? They always chase.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

amazing journey
I liked that Nicolai had a heart and a soft spot for Chelle. Chelle was a good big sister, and by the end I hope her loyalty wasn't misplaced and Zane learned some hard lessons. With the help
of her bff she saw reality much clearer than her knee jerk auto reaction at first. This was another exciting bratva love story that left me breathless. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and story to life. I highly recommend this series.

Feels, Intensity & Excitement
This book was so good!. I'd been eagerly anticipating Nikolai's story and was super excited to finally get my eager hands on it and it did not disappoint! Nikolai was definitely swoon worthy. His blend of tough and naughty was accented to perfection with just enough soft sweetness to make him absolutely delectable. The story was well written and it grabbed and maintained my attention easily. I must admit that my feelings about Chelle were much more complicated. Sometimes I liked her and I did feel a lot of sympathy for her. However, if I'm totally honest, I really didn't care for her. Still, together, I very much liked these two as a couple and I loved the feels they gave me while sending my temperature soaring. The narrator gave a great performance and I found his voice pleasing to listen to.

Smoking Hot Bratva Romance!!
May I say I just adore every story in this series. This one is even better - seems impossible, but it’s true. Whew!!
Nikolai lives in the “Kremlin” with our other bratva favorites. He has to put a push on Zane, who he likes, but has gotten behind in payments. Chelle is Zane’s sister. She becomes involved when Zane ends up in the hospital.
Nikolai is feeling adrift as each member “pairs up” including his twin Dima, who also moves away. As more interactions occur, including some flirtation, and definite attraction; Chelle strikes a deal to pay off Zanes debt.
This sounds “bad”, but Nikolai has a “code” and is gentlemanly when it matters, and not when asked not to be. Sensual, and exciting read. Read this within a 24 hour period. Captivating!!
*** Two years later I listened to this - I remember why I loved this so much! The narration is amazing, that Russian accent makes me swoon.
*** I am voluntarily leaving my honest review of this book ***

Great Story teller/ great story!
Love the story, love the series. The alpha men are wonderful, tough and caring. The man telling the story does a wonderful Russian accent, and makes it seem alive. Can’t wait for the next book to come out on Audible.

The Narration Enhanced the Story
The narration served to level up this book for me. It took a 4 star story to 5. That is not yo say that I didn't enjoy the ebook. I felt a little more engaged with the characters and what they were feeling.
Below is my ebook review of The Bookie:
I thought Nickolai had a very interesting personality, or moral compass. He didn't want Zane to be hurt too badly, but he couldn't let Zane get away with what he had done without acknowledging it. After all, it was Ravil's money that was involved.
He wouldn't let Chelle pay Zane's debt like she wanted to because that went against his personal rules. He had to mentally reconcile that he was separating the situation regarding Zane from his attraction to Chelle. The layers of his personality were a lot more complex than I originally thought.
I also thought the part about missing Dima was a nice addition. It added another layer of complexity to Nickolai's character. He and Chelle together were really kind of sweet. I did have to wonder about the behavior of Chelle's best friend. Between her best friend and her brother, Chelle didn't need enemies.
This book had a bit of action, A bit of danger, and a bit of suspense. Not as much as I expected, but some. I was able to read it in one sitting, all the way to the HEA.
I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

Life lessons from the Bookie
Nikolai and Chelle's story. Like all the stories in this Bratva series it's a steamy tale with an HEA. Love Benjamin Sands performance.
