"...because forbidden tastes a little sweeter and burns a lot hotter."

Mikhail Petrov is a powerful and morally grey Russian Bratva boss running the Dallas territory. As one of five brothers controlling different sections of America, Mikhail is a formidable figure in the criminal underworld. Despite his intimidating exterior, he harbours a soft spot for Leah Castellanos, the younger sister of his best friend. His fascination with her begins at the start of the story, and an intriguing detail about Mikhail is his fondness of Christmas lights.... when you know, you know 😉.


Leah Castellanos has always had a crush on Mikhail. Recently, she has dropped out of college and faces the pressures of an overbearing father who has always planned to arrange her marriage to someone beneficial for their family’s strength as the Cartel as she is a Cartel Princess, which is not Mikhail Petrov. Leah, however, feels most at ease and truly herself when she’s with Mikhail, finding solace in his presence. The dynamic between Leah and Mikhail is further complicated by her brother’s close friendship with Mikhail, adding layers of tension and loyalty to their budding relationship.


The forbidden and intense relationship between Mikhail and Leah as they navigate the dangerous world of mafia politics and familial obligations, their connection deepens, challenging their loyalties and testing their resolve. The story is a thrilling mix of romance and danger, as Leah and Mikhail grapple with their growing feelings for each other while confronting external threats and internal conflicts. Their journey is a captivating exploration of love, power, and the pursuit of happiness against all odds.


Elle Maldonado is one of my top five authors, and whenever she releases a new book it is downloaded onto my Kindle within minutes of it being released. The romances she writes are like no other!
