An absolutely wonderful mafia romance with an intriguing darkish undertone. I found the plot well-written & fascinating to read. The characters (a male assassin, Yuri) & (a female private investigator, Ava) having opposing personalities & at first appearance, do not appear to be compatible with each other but as the story continues they actually complement each other very well.
There is: mafia/bratva, assassins, drama, intrigue, suspense, action, enemies, threats, danger, murder, obsession, domination/submission, some discipline, spankings, abduction, torture, an unexpected rescue, determination, compromises, declarations, steamy scenes, surprises & a well-deserved happy conclusion.
