Claimed by the Bratva Brothers

Lucky Lady Reverse Harem #15

by Kai Lesy

It started with a simple mistake.
A knock on the wrong door.

If we were better men, we’d have turned her away.
But we’re not.

As Russian Bratva brothers, we had no business pursuing a naive librarian like Lyric.
She’s innocent. Pure. Gentle.

We’re ruthless bastards who take what we want.
And we took her innocence.
Watched her tremble. Heard her beg for more.

But once wasn’t enough.
We’re obsessed with her sweetness, her purity.

She doesn’t belong in our world, but it’s too late.
She’s ours now, and we’re not letting go.

Not her. Not the baby growing inside her.



This is a sexy, stand-alone reverse harem romance filled with humor, danger, and generous amounts of love. It also contains blistering hot MFMM, ménage fun times, in single and multiple partner scenes so HOT they're bound to melt your kindle! HEA guaranteed.

[Jenni · Rating 4 out of 5]

On the wrong side of the law and trying to go ligit, but it is those very same supposed lawmen that don't want you to go ligit, because they lose the money they threaten you with.

If you love hot and sexy men who will take care of the one they love in all ways, and some action along the way, then this series is for you.

Claimed by the Bratva Brothers is the 15th book in the Lucky Lady Reverse Harem series. All books are standalone's so you don't have to read them in order.

I love the characters who will do anything to stop those on the wrong side of the law. Sexy mexy, hot, and enticing.

hot mafia read!

I couldn't put this book down! The interactions between the characters and the way they developed feelings for each other right from the start had me hooked! 🌟🌟🌟💫🌶🌶🌶

[Angela Fregin · Rating 5 out of 5]

I know this genre of books don't appeal to some people. To be honest I never thought I could read books like this, but honestly the story lines in this group of books is fantastic. So far this was has been my favourite, so much so that I didn't want it to end.
I loved the drama, suspense, the dirty politician storyline, but the dynamics between Lyric and her men was very well done.

When I was offered this book to read for a review I thought it was going to be another one of “ those” books. You know the ones full of steam but not much else. No real plot or character development to be seen. I couldn’t have been more wrong. There was suspense, danger, love and loys of steam also. The FMC surprised me the most. She was a genius librarian who in my opinion was kick-a$$. She stood up to all the men in her life, even when she was scared. She stood up for what she knew to be right. I haven’t seen a lot of strong women in the books I have been reading lately.
I happily and wholeheartedly recommend this book and look forward to reading more from this author. Thank you for allowing me to review your book.

I knew when I picked this up that it wasn’t going to be a literally masterpiece. I picked it for brief entertainment but even that wasn’t fulfilled. This book SUCKEDDD. The very first chapter is them getting together as if from the beginning they are in love or something. There wasn’t even a real build up to it and the whole thing seemed sudden and forced. My biggest issue is this new wave of authors who love to have a surprise friend betrayal but everyone makes up in the end. Shelby is not her friend. She was a grown adult who go into a relationship with her “best friends” dad who had a very rocky relationship ship with her. What kind of friend does that. She even admits she “missed” some red flags such as him being accused about a guy he blackmailed committing suicide and Shelby is just like 🤷🏻‍♀️ idk I thought it was ok though. And the fact that she somehow comes in clutch to save the day and makes up for all of it and is a good friend is insane. There was no real justice in that situation at all. I’m so sick of authors creating these Shelby’s as if it’s a big moment for the fmc to be the kind and forgiving friend who understands them. No self respect at all. Going to eat with her while she tries to bully you into being nice to your dad and work with him and lies about how he’s such a good guy while ignoring you. She lies to your face about how he’s some kind of fatherly figure and turns it around to say you’re jealous of her relationship with him. JEALOUS???? YOU’RE FUCKING HER DAD??? Which honestly wasn’t a big plot twist, they set that up early with all the interactions they had and how Shelby acted. I hated this book because it couldn’t even be quick light entertainment.

Lyric is on the final part of her thesis. She goes to met a friend of her father's to get more data for her algorithm, but things don't go according to plan. Instead she meets 3 insanely hot men, who have their eye on another figure! She steps outside her comfort zone, plays on the wild side then all 4 of them are suppose to walk away.

But Lyric can't keep her mind of the Sokolov brothers, Artur, Max and Ivan who are Bratva, someone she definitely should stay away from, especially when her father is running his political campaign. The brother's are exactly the same, Lyric has gotten under their skin and they are addicted to her.

This hot, steamy menage a quatre have them fighting a losing battle against their desire. But things are getting dirty. The brothers are trying to go legitimate but 'old school members of the other bratva family make things harder. Lyric's father's campaign is going after organised crime with the help of the local FBI and police. The brothers are getting pulled in a lot of directions and Lyric is their weakness which could be used against them.

Will Lyric's dad be the brother's downfall or will things come to light that could shed a whole new outlook on who is the dirtiest. Friendships will be tested, bonds will be broken and love, trust and safety come from those you least expect.

Fantastic Read!

What a brilliant book and a great twist, reversing the good and bad guys in this story. I know the Bratva aren’t totally good but I loved that they were trying, but being hindered by the very people who are supposed to uphold the law.
Lyric is a highly intelligent phd student whilst also working on her own personally developed algorithm. She stumbled upon her Bratva men by mistake, but there was something in their eyes that drew her to them, trusting them to let go and take a chance. And boy did she 🔥.
Artur, Ivan & Max are heads of the Russian Bratva in Chicago. They are trying to get the families to go legit, but it’s not always plain sailing! They were instantly drawn to Lyric, not able to let her go. Forces along the way cause them trouble but what a brilliant ride it was.

I loved every bit of this book, their love and connection together shone through, I especially loved the epilogues xx

If you love m@f!a and reverse harem romances, this is a book you’ll want to
dive into.

Inside Kai Lesy’s most recent book you’ll meet Lyric, a Ph.D. candidate on her way to interview a close associate of her politician father. Unfortunately, when she arrives, Mr. Bowman isn’t anywhere to be found, but the three heads of Chicago’s Bratva greet her instead.

Max, Ivan, and Artur mistake Lyric for an escort they had ordered. Through a series of events, curiosity, and insane chemistry, the four of them form a connection that grows over time and through tenuous circumstances.

Book Quote: “If we’re to survive this, if we’re to take our whole business into legitimacy, we have to obliterate those who want to drag us down into the gutter with them.

Lyric finds herself in the middle of a power struggle led by her father, and by proxy, her best friend.

This is a story of forbidden love, corruption in politics and law enforcement, and betrayal by those closest to our lead characters. It ends in an HEA, but it takes a twisting journey to get there. The book’s pacing was a little slow through the first third of the book, but it didn’t take away from the tale.

This is a Bratva tale, so know there is some on-page violence and instances of kidnapping. From my perspective, they weren’t gratuitous nor did they detract from the story.

Could’ve Been Great - Frustratingly Undone by the Unrealistic Sex Scenes (**SPOILERS**)

I wanted to like this. The plot is imaginative and the author builds a strong female lead surrounded by compelling, well-drawn men. The setup had real promise and pacing that kept me reading.

What ruined it for me: the graphic, clumsy sex scenes. The “virgin” fantasy played out in a tone that felt voyeuristic rather than earned, and some encounters bordered on the physically implausible (two dicks one very large vajayjay) in a way that pulled me right out of the story. Those scenes read awkward and gratuitous instead of sensual or character-revealing. The bigger problem: a predictable plotline that undercut the book’s initial originality.

Pros
- Strong, believable heroine
- Well-crafted male characters
- Intriguing premise and early momentum

Cons
- Heavy-handed, implausible sex scenes that disrupt immersion
- Predictable storyline after a promising start
- Moments that feel gratuitous rather than character-driven

Verdict
I almost DNF’d but pushed through to the end. If you care more about strong characters and premise than tasteful intimacy, it’s worth a look. If explicit, unrealistic sex scenes bother you, this one will frustrate you.

2/5🌟
3.5🌶️

I'm in the mood for a spicy mafia romance and none of these are doing it for me 😭. My subpar rating is partially due to that frustration and partially due to my overly optimistic expectation.

➕
- Short standalone (300ish pages) / low commitment.
- If you enjoy mafia romance, reverse harem, independent FMC, political intrigue.

➖
- I was here for a spicy good time and got nothing. The instalust was out of control. Also did she have to be a virgin?! Why?! WHY! I felt no chemistry between the main characters and the smut felt rushed and perfunctory.
- There was a lot of political intrigue and machinations that I just did not care for. I was quite bored and started speed reading through in the second half.
- The MMCs were flat. I didn't get much alpha or possessive vibes.
- I don't mind a surprise pregnancy and it wasn't a huge part of the story but I didn't see it advertised anywhere and I know it's a nonstarter for some readers.

Wow! What a storyline!
There is never a dull moment in this book!! It was one of those books that I could not stop reading…until I was blurry-eyed and falling asleep into my Kindle.
CLAIMED BY THE BRATVA BROTHERS is a book I had to finish all in one sitting. That was no small task, trust me! But, and that’s a big BUT, it was worth my time. I did not want to stop reading until I got to the last page. I just had to see how the story ended!
Not only are the characters well fleshed out, but they interact with each other better than I expected them to. Each one is finely tuned and fascinating. The storyline was incredible and spellbinding. The ending was better than I hoped for, as well. It is a wonderful book that I can easily recommend to other readers.

Has potential

But writing needs to improve.
We're told they are Russian bratva but I didn't see any trace of Russian at all. No nicknames or language & I think only 1 if the 3 MC's has a 'trace accent '.

Another are details
At 1 point one of the MMC's brings the FMC a coffee & a box of French pastries...well how does she know they are French pastries? How would anyone ever know they were French or Italian unless the box has the name of the bakery? WHO even says that or pastries that way?
You just say pastries, or fresh baked pastries etc
Stuff like that.

Also the spice wasn't spicing. It was very 1 on 1 except a small portion of the 1 foursome the men kissed her but mostly just sat back & watched. The scene wasn't very descriptive & there was t much action other than intercourse.

Was hoping for more

[Mafia Wife · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was not quite what I expected. From the description I thought it was a different trope. She goes for a meeting with a professor but instead finds 3 bratva brothers in the suite who proposition her. She willingly accepts. The writing was well done and characters were decently fleshed out, more so the female main and the men were a little more basic. They had very steamy chemistry and spicy scenes. There is the romance plot line but the mafia drama plays heavily into this one and leads the story with the romance being secondary. The FMC has some unexpected talents and comes out strong with her men. They find their unconventional HEA in the epilogue.

[Nicole Deanne Veracruz · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is my first book by this author. It pulled me in from the very beginning. And I really truly enjoyed it. It was more than just romance because there was a serious plot behind everything. I did have a little problems with Lyric. Because for somebody that was so intelligent she did some really stupid things. Also I take issue when somebody claims to be in love but then lies to the person they're in love with whether it's a flat out lie or a Lie by omission. And she did all of the above. I adored Max, Artur and Ivan. The chemistry is off the charts. I'm Pro polyamorous so this book was right up my alley.

Tropes: RH, age gap, mafia romance, accidental pregnancy, virgin fmc, brother mmc's.

The newest book in Kai Lesy's Lucky Lady Reverse Harems series. Lyric, whose dad is a politician, is a librarian working on her thesis and goes to meet her dad's friend to interview him for more information. But she instead meets the Sokolov brothers, Artur, Max and Ivan, who are in the Bratva, having a completely different interaction than what she was going for.

What happens when secrets are uncovered and things are not what they seem to look like from the outside? The characters have lots of obstacles to overcome to be able to get their HEA.

A well-written story that is action-packed with spice. I will definitely be going back and reading the books earlier in the series.

[Lisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a hot reverse harem mafia romance, between Lyric, Max, Ivan and Artur. Lyric is trying to finish her thesis so her politician dad who is running for senate, organises an interview for her with one of his friends, but that goes wrong when she comes face to face with the Sokolov brothers who have just kidnapped the person she was due to interview. The brothers make a proposition to Lyric and they end up spending a hot and steamy night together. It was meant to be just one night but the brothers couldn't seem to walk away. It's a well written hot mafia read with some action, suspense, hot steamy scenes and a HEA.

I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.

In this book we meet Lyric, Arthur, Max, & Ivan. Lyric has come to meet a man named Jack Bowman. Jack has agreed to a meeting for her college thesis. What she finds instead is the Sokolov brothers at that point she knows she is in trouble. The thing is the guys want to give her a kind of trouble that she will never forget in all the good ways. These 3 know that the man she has come to meet is not a good man (not that they are either). After spending time with her they know they will do anything to protect her. Can they all find a HEA or will it all be too much to overcome?

Another amazing story by this author. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

[Kathleen · Rating 1 out of 5]

There were typos right off the bat, and in the first s*x scene, it was obvious the author could not keep track of which person was doing what to the woman. This is yet another story where a woman thinks she has fallen in love just because she is getting mind-blowing orgasms. Love and lust are two different things. I believe the main character lusted after the men, but she knew nothing about them other than they were mobsters, so there was no possible way for her to be in love with them. Also, is no one else bothered by the incest? I really wish authors would stop taking the easy way out of these books by making characters "fall in love" with each other just because they enjoy the s*x. It is a cop-out that helps the authors avoid any character development.

Claimed by the Brat a Brothers (Lucky Ladies Reverse Harems). By Kai Lesy

This whole book was gripping, exciting, loving and sexy. The stress of running a large group of people, families that have been around for generations doing things the old way, paying bribes to politicians and law enforcement officers and higher ups, FBI etc. Was the old familiar way of doing things, the new generation of bosses wanted to and was doing so as fast as they could to legitimize all of their businesses. However the were at a stalemate with the elders and the politicians to stay as it had been forever. Then the bosses fall in love and still working hard to make the Brava businesses legal. A great read, captivating, loving and certainly awesome sex scenes.
I liked it all very much.

Lyric wants nothing to do with her father's career. Lyric is working on her thesis and is suppose to meet with one of her father's friends. But that is not what happens, instead Max, Ivan, and Artur are there and Lyric has a profoundly different experience than an interview.
This book has secrets that get uncovered through the development of the story and the relationships that happen within the book. I loved the characters and the obstacles that happen before they can experience their happily ever after together for all four of them.

I love reading Kai's books. When I do I feel happy, sad, rage and excited, the range is always there in each story. Some are always stronger than others.

The Bravta men include Max, Ivan and Artur. Lyric is looking for an interview with Mr. Bowman, and she is greeted at the door by Max. She is greeted by the three like she was sent over from an agency. They decide to have some fun and they are all totally hooked on each other afterwards. They ghost Lyric after something happens and she is upset and the guys are missing her.

Will Lyric get her HEA with the three? What will happen with her dad? Will they face any charges from their activities? Let's finish reading to find out!

[LeMiliere · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book managed to totally surprise me, I was expecting chemistry and heat and not much story but Kai Lesy managed to infuse this one with enough suspense, danger, love, chemistry and steam to hold my interest from beginning to end.

Lyric is a great character, a genius librarian who is not at all what I think of when I think "Librarian". I loved how she was able to stand up to all the men in her life and not let herself be ruled by fear and how she stood up for what she knew to be right. I do love strong female leads.


The guys for their part are strong and sexy and surprisingly loyal when it comes to Lyric. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Lyric is heading to an appointment for her thesis and finds that she gets into a sticky situation especially the bratva brothers (Max, Artur and Ivan). It gets hot and heavy between them and succumbs to the passion. What happens when secrets are uncovered, and things are not what they seem to look like from the outside? Betrayal, revelations, drama and suspense in this story. The characters have lots of obstacles to overcome but their passion and love will make them stronger and bring a vision to all of them.

I loved Claimed by the Bratva Brothers. Drama, suspense and lots of steamy scenes. It was chance that brought Lyric to Max, Ivan and Artur. It was supposed to be a one time thing, but no once could stay away. They are trying to be legit and she is trying to stay away from her political father. She knows something bigger is going on and she doesn’t want to be involved. Throw in a baby and a scheming ex , and you have an amazing story. I loved the characters and the storyline. The ending was more than I hoped for. I would definitely recommend this book. I would love a book for Lyrics friend Shelby.

Claimed by the Bratva Brothers by delivered plenty of possessive Bratva energy, protective heroes, and steamy reverse-harem romance. The chemistry between Lyric and the Sokolov brothers was enjoyable, and the fast-paced plot kept me turning pages. However, I struggled to fully connect with the characters, and some of the relationship development felt rushed. While the suspense and pregnancy storyline added tension, I wanted more depth and emotional buildup before the major revelations. Overall, it’s an entertaining mafia romance with spice and drama, but it didn’t leave a lasting impression on me. 📚🖤
