Bratva Series #3

Bratva Knight

Rate this book
Nikolai Volkov
The funny thing about trust is it’s so hard to gain but so easy to lose. One stupid mistake cost me the only woman I’ve ever loved.
Cost me her.
Tatiana Andreeva.
My fierce, golden-haired goddess with the face of an angel and the attitude of the fucking devil. She was my everything, and I would do whatever it took to get her back, because a life without her was a life not worth living.

Tatiana Andreeva
Even though I didn’t play an active role in the Bratva, I was still very much a Bratva woman.
My dad was an advisor to the Pakhan.
My best friend, a Bratva Princess turned Cosa Nostra Queen.
And her brother, a 6’6 Bratva killing machine, was the man who owned my heart but shattered my soul.
My dad used to read me bed time stories when I was a little girl, of princesses and their knight and shining armour. I used to fall asleep dreaming of the day when I would finally find mine. Someone to love me. Protect me. Be there for me in every way.
But when I needed my Knight, he wasn’t there.

NIKOLAIIIIIIII VOLKAVVVVVVVVVVV >>>>>>>>>>> no fucking notes. I’m so gone for this quiet, unhinged, YEARNINNGGGGGGG Russian mafia man it’s not even funny. HIM AND TATIANNA OWN MY SOULLL!! Best book in the series so far, I truly don’t see how they can be beat. The emotions this book made me feel???? The longing, the pining, the love, the heartache!!! No I can’t.

This is why second chance romance will forever and always be one of my favorite tropes. Guys the amount of tears I shed over them was not okay. When I found out why they broke up…. I was done for. Gutted. Heart ripped out and stomped all over!!! So thank god for the comedic relief because I NEEDED IT!! But seriously I still can’t get over how funny these characters are and just the sibling dynamics are so funnny, I want to be a part of their family!! It’s not fair. Also even more crumbs of Luk and his stalker!!!!! Not him getting all giddy and excited about the fact that she broke into his room and watched him sleep for 3 hours!! I NEED THEIR BOOK NOW!!

I was also so obsessed with Tatianna which is no surprise seeing ass I’m obsessed with all the blood thirsty, bad ass women in this series. I loved how she always embraced her feminine while simultaneously not thinking twice about chopping of a guys man parts for trying to take advantage of her…. Like as she should.

Nikolai Nikolai Nikolai. My yearning king. That’s my mannnnnnnnn. Gagged. Dead. I need a straight jacket. The way he literally bought her $5000 shoes in every single color because he wanted to make sure she had the ones she wanted…. No yeah. As he should. The man’s complete and utter devotion to her. The way he worships every fiber of her being. Like she literally is his reason for breathing. He’s also just so fine it should be illegal. The spice…… the words that come out of his mouth. No. Send help. The way he called her “love” I’m gonna be sick.

AND THE PLOT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER WITH EACH BOOK!!! Like huhhhh?!! How does she do it?? The way the ending has me almost biting off my finger nails I wasn’t so anxious!! Oh I just cannot wait for daddy Dimitri’s book!!!!

Anyways Nikolai and Tati are permanently etched in my brain forever.

“Because there’s nothing in this world that could keep me from you. There’s no obstacle I wouldn’t climb. No task I wouldn’t complete. No person I wouldn’t kill to get back to you. You, my beautiful Tatiana, are the centre of my universe. Moye vse. My everything.”

“I want all of you. I want every single part of you, not just your body or the parts you’re only willing to give. I want everything. The good, the bad and every beautiful, precious moment in between.“

“I will never stop trying to get back what we had. What I destroyed. I will wait my entire fucking life for you. Because you’re worth every single second of that wait, no matter how agonising it is.”

I was so ready to give up on this series had this book not worked out for me. But I knew I could count on Nikolai 😭😭 Yes, he's the only reason I'm reading this series atp and his book delivered 🤌 Well, as best as it could.

Though I must admit, I wasn't interested in the mafia plot and action as much as the main characters and their romance. It was dark and for once I actually liked a second chance trope? That bit surprised me too. The chemistry between Nikolai and Tatiana is so amazing. They have depth, history and an actual emotional connection instead of whatever tf was going on in the previous two books in the series.

Nikolai is such a husband material. Yes he made mistakes but he takes responsibility and accountability. He's not just a possessive mafia brute. Sure, he's broody and aloof but he makes it look so sexy. And good Lord, the mouth on this man 😩🫦 The way he grovels is worth reading. Like I would fold instantly. The man talks and it alters my brain chemistry.

Tatiana is his perfect half. She's so far the only fmc in this series I genuinely liked. She's fierce, went through hell and her struggles are something that even though not all women will relate but every one will sympathize with and support her. I totally understand why she distanced herself and didn't find her antics childish or petty. Like pop off, queen. She desereved the world.

The spice was chef's kiss 🤌 The ending was pretty good and close to perfection for me. Though I kinda wish the book/series will tone down on the pop culture references. They can be a bit much at times. Unfortunately for me, now I'm sucked back into this Bratva world and will have to continue with the rest of series. All because of Nikolai.


~•~•~
Nikolai, baby. I'm finally here for you. Man's the only character I care about in this Bratva world.
Also, this is my last shot at this series. If it doesn't work out, I'm out.

NIKO IS SUCH A LOSER. I don’t care if he “loves her” or whatever.. he failed her in the worst possible way and this book acts like it’s cute to give him a second chance. How about the fuck not?

That betrayal and baby shit RUINED EVERYTHING. if I hadn’t already read this far, I would’ve DNF’d. And the only reason i did finish was because of pure rage reading.

I'm gonna be honest I skipped EVERY NikoTatiana intimate scene. Didn't care about their "love" or sex or whatever. It was all so fake in my eyes.

The author clearly wanted us to empathize with Niko so deeply that we would forgive what he did. Like instead of trusting Tatiana the woman he supposedly "loves" who he’s been with for a year he instantly believes the guy whos lying about her cheating with him.

And he doesn’t even give her a chance to explain. He abandons her during pregnancy and the loss of their child. Which he refused to acknowledge it was his.

And the “reason” we’re fed for why he behaved this way is… he’s traumatized because another woman once lied to him about a baby.

Because obviously the only logical explanation for his betrayal is that some other woman hurt him once. Yeah that makes everything totally okay. Like sorry but no. That only makes his betrayal all about his past hurt. Instead of condemning his actions, the narrative is saying see? He’s not really a monster. He’s just wounded. Feel sorry for him.

Like fuck that shit. I'm out.

the guy who fucked their girl with a gun #4

THIS ONE WAS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE LAST ONE. ABSOLUTELY LOVED TATIANA AND NIKOLAI. Though, it was extremely long🥲
I want to write a review so bad but ig, I am in a review slump (better than a reading slump ngl)
~~~~~

SK's review convinced me that this book is better so, I am gonna give it a go!

Find yourself a “best friend” that will make, you losing your unborn child and having had to give birth to it alone because your bf ghosted you, about her 🤩 That book really made me hate Illayana.

I still liked the story ! I liked Nikolai and Tatiana, there was so much going on, that’s what got me going ! Just one thing, i don’t know what’s the deal with this author and kidnappings but everyone and their mother (father if we wanna be literal) has been kidnapped at least once, if not more lmaoo

But this time I’m afraid I didn’t like the story enough for the writing to not bother me (and yet I can’t stop reading those books, make it make sense…).
PS: everything i didn’t like about the writing is in my review of the first book

ABOUT THAT i really need to say something. I’m so curious, with all the editing books go through, did they check the Spanish dialogues ?? Not only are there grammar mistakes (I didn’t even read all of them) but the one that shocked me was “di un puto mundo más”… it means “say one more world”. yes. one more WORLD” as in 🌎 . AND it changes the sentence completely since “word” in Spanish is feminine (“di una puta palabra más”) and nobody noticed that ?? (as a french person, genders matter a lot to me, even for nouns 😭) I don’t even wanna know the mistakes in Russian.

BUT BUT BUT, to end up on a good note, just one quote from my close second favorite MMC of the series:
“I smiled, full and bright, and fell to my knees. One knee wasn’t enough. Not for my Queen.” 😇
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

I read the book, but my review disappeared... im too lazy to rewrite my review again.

😭😭
I'll keep it pretty short. It's finally Tati and Niko book and i was wondering what happened between them to make Tati not want to be around. And we finally got answers, and my heart broke for Tati, and I understood why she pushed Niko away.
We get Niko showing up for his woman grovling for what he put her, though, even if it really wasn't his fault.

We still get drama going around and family moments between everyone.

Low angst, no cheating, secondary characters, drama, sexy times, no virgins

I had really high expectations for this book and was legit enjoying it so much but I dnfed this book at 30%. Because of this one paragraph.

“Then there was the snake in his underwear. Or, more accurately, the can of pringles, because that was how big and thick the damn thing was. It was fucking monstrous.”

˚ ┊✦ i literally cannot take more of this series this is my new obsession, i was really hesitant at first reading this series but man am I glad i started this only monday i started this series already half way to finish 🤭🤭

The way i screamed tha we have these two own pov book i loved tatitiana in the first book with illayana now she has her own dirty secrets bring …. It … on!!!😈🔪

The way that this series has me locked in a chokehold like literally there’s so many god damn twists and turns so many heartbreak emotions running wild like I can’t get enough of this series. There is a lot of dark topics in these series for sure so always be wearing of reading the trigger warnings before you read them if you can think you can handle it. If I say this series is eating me up it definitely is I cannot put these Dow I’m obsessed with the characters some can be annoying but some literally have you broken.



˚ ┊ ✦ Nikolai volkov
Is there anything this man couldn’t do.. considering his background of mafia mob family he was so stunningly hot 🥵 the way he was fighting all blooded 🤭 all I’m saying with that man he was stunningly beautiful 😻 probably my favourite one of of all of them so far. I just love him so much that he loves tatiana especially through out the bad things like come on this man literally a green flag considering all the perks and quirks and all 🤭🤭


˚ ┊ ✦ Tatiana andreeva
I loved her character so much!!! She by far one of my favourite female character her background history made me sob so much I really felt for her going through that without revealing spoilers like good lord where’s the tissues 😭I loved her friendship so much with illayana the way thy comfort each other so well gossip about boys 😈my type friendship hahah! I just loved her so much

My god the romance was just epic in this to say we have had so many emotions rolling in with all the back stabbing this endured like give me a breakkkk😭
The way that these two cared for each other so much even through bad times they stick together through thick and thin even there banter side was hilarious when they don’t agree with each other when the bad stuff was happening.

I cannot believe that ending !! The last few chapters had me gobsmacked!! I cannot wait to finish the last two off this was literally a heartbreaker 😭

Bratva Knight by T.J. Maguire is a dark, emotionally charged mafia romance about Nikolai Volkov and Tatiana Andreeva, two lovers torn apart by devastating past events who must wrestle with guilt, heartbreak, and lingering desire as they find their way back to each other within the brutal and dangerous world of the Russian Bratva where trust is fragile and loyalty can cost everything. The story is the third book in the interconnected Bratva series, so characters and plot threads build on earlier entries and continue into later ones, creating a tapestry of tension and family loyalty that stretches across the books.

When I think back on this story, what stayed with me most was how deeply I felt the emotional weight carried by both Nikolai and Tatiana: her strength in facing trauma and loss, and his relentless determination to prove that his love and loyalty still burn fiercely even when her trust has been fractured. The heartbreaking flashbacks reveal just how much these two have endured, including past loss and betrayal, and I felt that rawness in the way their scenes unfolded, tender in quiet moments and devastating when the pain of what happened between them was laid bare.

While the book moves through intense and often grim events, it also will make you root for these characters to find peace with their past and courage to build something new together, even if the path there is jagged and uncertain. ❤️‍🔥 The worldbuilding around the Bratva’s violent and high-stakes life gave the romance an edge that kept me invested not just in the lovers, but in the sprawling family bonds and loyalty that shape their choices. Reading it made my heart ache and swell in equal measure, and I truly appreciated how this installment deepened the emotional stakes of the series.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars because the emotional depth and intensity of Nikolai and Tatiana’s journey moved me profoundly, with powerful character evolution and gripping drama that illuminated both their shadows and their capacity to love again, even if the darkness and complexity of the world can make the story feel heavy at times.

The plot continues in this book and just keeps getting better.
We finally got answers, and my heart broke for Tatiana and Nikolai. There are so many emotions and heartbreaking moments. I cried reading this.
I loved their relationship, but I also really enjoyed the continuation of the underlying plot.

I can't wait to read more about Dimitri and Lukyan (december 😭).

5⭐️ the best in the series BY FAR. The previous books really lacked any sort of built emotional depth. NIKOLAI is a yearner!!! Him and Tatiana are second chance romance, which isn’t always my favorite, but they might have changed my mind. We got some crumbs of Nikolai and Tati in previous books, but I never expected their actual story/past. I LOVED THEM. He would literally do anything for her and I finally got that emotional aspect I was looking for.

The plot picks up right where the previous book left off…I’m really enjoying how wild and crazy the plot is regardless that it’s super unrealistic.

This is hands down my favourite book in the series and I’m so happy I kept going!

Nikolai Volkov is exactly my kind of man, and I’d do unspeakable things for him 🥵🥹

This man’s love language is almost definitely Acts of Service, and I’m here for it! I know a lot of people hate the second chance trope, but it was beautifully done. The way this man grovelled and earned her forgiveness for what he did brought tears to my eyes 😭

He was the epitome of a silent but deadly man with a mix of protectiveness and possessiveness that was so hot, and yet was a complete softy with her. The little gestures he made for her were everything any woman would want 🥹🥹🥹

Tati was a fun and badass bitch and I loved her too! They were truly perfect for eachother and I’m so happy they made it back to each other after everything they went through.

The flashback scenes completely destroyed me. I was sick while reading this, and the fact that I couldn’t stop crying almost put me in cardiac arrest, but it was worth it. Seeing such a strong man completely crumble in his grief was heartbreaking, and they both absolutely deserved their HEA.

The only reason this didn’t get a 5⭐️ rating was because it was a bit long, but other than that, I loved it! 🥰

Tropes:
- Bratva romance
- Best friend’s brother
- Secret relationship
- Pregnancy trope
- Second chance
- Grovelling
- Grumpy/Sunshine
- Found Family
- Softy only with her
- Acts of service
- Loss

Easiest 5 stars I have given in a while. This book was so addictively good! Nikolai and Tatiana are everything. Their story was heartbreaking but beautiful at the same time. I am amazed by how good the plot of this series is. It's incredible. This is the best mafia series I have read since the Dark Verse series. If you're thinking about reading this, do it. It truly is so, so good!!

My favorite book in the series! I enjoyed the love between Nikolai and Tatiana, I felt the passion, pain, the yearning. !!

"I closed my eyes and leant into him, breathing him in. He was there. He came. Somehow, against all odds, he’d found me. My Knight."

"Nikolai and I were connected in a way I don’t think either of us entirely understood. If I believed in soul mates—in two souls being one, like both sides of a coin—then there would be no doubt in my mind that we were made for each other."

“I want all of you. I want every single part of you, not just your body or the parts you’re only willing to give. I want everything. The good, the bad and every beautiful, precious moment in between. You’re not ready to give that to me now, and I understand. I do. I broke your trust and you’re scared to let me back in. But hear me now, Tatiana Vera Andreeva. I will never stop trying to get back what we had. What I destroyed. I will wait my entire fucking life for you. Because you’re worth every single second of that wait, no matter how agonising it is.”

“Because there’s nothing in this world that could keep me from you. There’s no obstacle I wouldn’t climb. No task I wouldn’t complete. No person I wouldn’t kill to get back to you. You, my beautiful Tatiana, are the centre of my universe.” He placed the softest kiss on my lips. “Moye vse.” My everything.

⚠️Cheating= No

⚠️OW/OM Drama= No

⚠️Sharing= No

⚠️Third act breakup= Not sure. I DNFed

⚠️Cliffhanger= No

⚠️Happy ending= Yes

This was so cringe I can not. Had to Dnf. I thought it would get better but no, it's so fucking bad. The author is trying to make the fmcs so badass and cool like that's her job and the rent is DUE, she's getting evicted.

Thoughts while reading:

Had to skip Bratva Prince because I ain't reading about a mmc having sex with other women and the fmc HAVING TO HEAR IT. Fuck that shit. Hopefully this one doesn't have scenes like that because i WILL lose my fucking mind 🤗

How should i take the situation seriously when they have a WHATSAPP GROUP with everyone including the GUARDS where they send emojis based on the situation. I'm laughing so hard even typing this

The story doesn't really make sense. He is angry at her for "punishing him" like he told her in a fit of anger like "for how long are you gonna punish me huh?" Like he already knew why she was acting like that. Then when she told him thet it was because of the child and how he ignored her when she needed him, he dropped on his knees apologizing like he didn't just get pissed off at her. If that was when he found out why it doesn't make sense how he didn't think anything like "how could i do that" or idk, he didn't think about anything and it was in his pov. He just explained to us what he is doing, getting on his knees apologizing and hugging her stomach. But if he KNEW already why, it doesn't make sense why he would say something so insensitive only to drop on his knees when she explained or re-explained idk. Like what??? It doesn't make fucking sense. I can't even feel bad for them because i'm just fucking confused what is happening

And how the fuck??? Didn't her friend notice her "SWOLLEN" abdomen. If the child is already kicking then the stomach should be swollen enough to be noticed. I'm so confused 😭😭😭😭

The bitch she's supposed to call mom should simply go fucking die. She doesn't deserve the dad. He's so sweet and genuine and loves her even tho she LEFT THEM FOR YEARS, DECADES. And the poor dude because he loves her, went directly to her immediately because she wamts to say sorry. FUCK YOUUU GO KILL YOURSELF

No. No, i'm NOT going to think about the fmc and see BLAKE LIVELY WTF WHY WOULD THE AUTHOR THINK ITS A FANTASTIC IDEA TO MAKE THE MMC SAY THAT THE FMC LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE BLAKE LIVELY BUT HOTTER. NO. Wha...NOOOO. I'm not saying that I LOOK any better, i know i'm kinda ugly but Blake Lively has absolutely nothing in common with the fmc, she's much much older, the fmc looks exactly like Elle Fanning in mu opinion. Blake would be her fucking bitch of a mom. I hate that woman, both Blake and the fmc's mom.

Call me a bitch with capital B but Arturo "testing" her like they do in those stupid old movies is...so cringe. "I saw you studying the room like my wife does when she enters a room, i want you to point all 3 Xs in the room🥸" and she pulls out knives and throws them at the Xs without looking because she's so cool and badass. Holy fucking shit so cringe 😭😭😭
Now he's like "kill this man" but she's skeptical. She realizes the gun isn't even loaded which i agree that you can tell that but then she goes Legally Blonde and says that he is one of his men BECAUSE OF HIS SUIT'S BRAND. Be so for real. She remembering him from when she saw him with Arturo at a party? Perfect, something an actual attentive person would figure out like with the gun, same eith the fact that he is also armed. BUT THE FUCKING SUIT BRAND? So so Legally Blonde

Vincenzo being a flirty version of Arturo is so funny because both of them saw russian mafia women being powerful af and tried to snatch them immediately 💀

Ngl, Nikolai attacking Vincenzo because he was flirting with Tatiana and Arturo pointing a gun at his head telling him to let him go WHILE TATIANA WAS POINTING A GUN AT ARTURO'S HEAD TO PROTECT NIKOLAI is fucking HOT.
THAT'S how you show that a woman is powerful, not making all characters kiss her ass and talk about oh how strong and powerful and scary she is. You show, not tell. Small ways, big ways, not cringy, forced "i underestimated you 🤓"scenes

Seeing the fmc react angrily at the things I TOO react very badly is kinda funny.
"Did you think i'd let you walk into potentially dangerous situation without me?"
All I could hear(or read) was "LET YOU"
Then the fmc also said while i thought that, "LET ME?"

Can the author calm down a bit with making each and every fmc Jackie fucking Chan?? I love a badass fmc like Lana Myers from The Mindfuck series, who knows martial arts and kills people and is a complete badass but not in the most "i'm not like other girls" way bruh. She's strong but not in a way that she turns into Jackie Chan every other page because something slightly annoying happened. And istg it's so annoying when the fmc practices fucking hardcore martial arts on a man because he slightly annoyed her. Idc about the, "but if the roles were reversed" stuff, but I do care that the author is trying SO FUCKING HARD TO MAKE THEM BADASS AND ENDS UP MAKING THEM SO CRINGE

Bratva Knight ⭐️⭐️⭐️.43
This is the book I was by far most excited about in the whole series. It has like all of my fav tropes in it so I was thrilled. With that being said it let me down in a lot of ways. I did not find Tatiana interesting and I was bored a lot in this book. I think this book did such a disservice to the couple by skipping over all of their history and just giving us barely a blurb about the trauma and everything that led to the timeline. The timeline and when things got exposed to others in the family was way too convenient and MY OH MY DID WE NEED TO SEE MORE OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP and what happened over the years since. I feel like this author takes too much time on things not important and then the important things she skips through. With that being said even tho I was bored at times the plot got more interesting and I really do love the brothers and the love they have for each other and illyana even tho I still don’t care for her but she was so valid for being mad at both nik and Tati by the way. The reason I’m rating this book this highly is because they LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH. Omgod he was so so so fucking in love with her and I crave that so so much. I want that in my books I read and his love for her was so innocent and beautiful. He would do anything for that girl and it was so obvious that he loved every single part of her and respected her so much. He would easily be one of my top book boyfriends if our author gave us more of their story context, him more of a personality and just more into his mind. But their relationship was so gorgeous. Losing a child like that is horrific and I feel so much for both of them. And her being pregnant again and the grave scene and the proposal 😭😭😭😭 and that he would drop anything and everything to be there for his girl in any single way that was needed to help her was so beautiful. Like highkey I think I will put him on my boyfriend list because honestly HOW MUCH HE LOVES HER IS JUST AAAAA. Anyways I think the smut had a lot of potential in this because they were both switches and that’s my vibe but she pulled a “so Lorcan did” scene and I wanted to scream. They deserved more with their smut since they clearly love to experiment and try all these different things together and are comfortable doing that. I LOVE ALEKSANDER HONESTLY AND THIS BOOK MADE ME LOVE HIM MORE. I’m connected to this series now and invested but she just keeps making everything too easy. They get out of all these situations too easily and when something scary happens or traumatic for the characters we just move past it oh so fast. Wayyyyyyy tooo fast. I’m also confused on dad and I’m mad he is like going to move on from their mom but like intrigued. I’m going to take a slight break but I will come back even tho I have my issues that have continued through out this series I loved drea and alek together and I love love love Nik and Tati together and both of their relationships. These next books may surprise me

MIND FUCKING BLOWING,THIS BOOK IS MIND BLOWING 😭
Nikolai , Nikolai, Nikolai the man that you are ! Quite, unhinged , yearning man who isn’t afraid of showing how much he wants his woman 😭
tatianna ugh my badass woman , she’s so girlie and feminine yet so lethal and could crush you into pieces without breaking a sweat 😭
And excuse me ! The way nik bought tati 5000$ shoes in every single color simply because he didn’t know which color she preferred ? Or buying a 300,000$ ultra sound machine to check on their babies any time tati wanted too ? Omg obsessed, obsessed and OBSESSED !
The way he called her “ my beautiful love “ ? The way he loves her with every fibre of his being? M just so in love with them rn I could cry!
Alsooooo the PLOT ?????????????? It keeps getting better and better like wowwwwww and each book has an ending that makes you itching to start the next book as fast as u can 😭 and m so excited for daddy dimitri , the fucking butcher 😭
"Because there's nothing in this world that could keep me from you. There's no obstacle I wouldn't climb. No task I wouldn't complete. No person I wouldn't kill to get back to you. You, my beautiful Tatiana, are the centre of my universe. Moye vse. My everything."
“and there isn't a single thing I wouldn't do for you. I would lie for you. Kill for you. Die for you. I would do anything you asked of me because your happiness is my happiness.
