About this listen
This is no fairytale...
As the daughter of a biker, I've been toe-to-toe with brutal men. I grew up surrounded by violence, so I thought I could survive anything.
Until I learned what it really means to be at the mercy of a monster. One I loved. One I trusted.
Now that I've escaped, I refuse to go back.
But when I show up on my brother's doorstep looking for help, I find myself face-to-face with Mason Zane.
My protector. My safety. My brother's apprentice.
A man who reveals my truths and cracks me open. A man who sees the girl I forgot existed.
But Mason has secrets of his own. Demons like the ones I've been running from. A tangled web that ties us together in ways we never expect.
Mason might feel like salvation, but this is no fairytale. And I won't trade one evil for another again.
Word to the Wise is an emotionally twisted, dark romance with a morally grey hero. Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.

Arrogant bosshole with some dirty secrets. Sounds tempting, right? Wrong. Kirill Zaitsev is anything but tempting. Sure, he’s tall and broad and muscular in all the right places. And sure, he’s richer than several small countries. And yes, fine, his eyes do make me feel loopy, and he does smell like mint and musk, and there’s also the way his jaw clenches when he… Sorry, where was I? Oh yeah. Bosshole. Dirty secrets. Anyway, all those things sound fine and dandy. For a little while, I thought so, too. Then I learned who Kirill really is—a killer, a tycoon, a mafia don.
