This book was suspenseful, thrilling with a hint of mystery that kept me turning the pages. Great story and I enjoyed it very much.
This is BWWM Russian mobster story. Liked the way the author put a spin on usual story. Author made mobster seem more human with actual feelings, even though he is just discovering them. His love interest is strong, professional who takes chance on love and risks everything to be with her love.. Good book. Quick read. Good story.
Alexander meets Tonjia, who is a real estate agent. They start a relationship, but they end it because of a conflict. Tonjia finds out she is pregnant.
I loved the chemistry between Sacha and Tonjia. Sacha was a man of few words, Tonjia was a woman who wouldn't back down. Throw in sex and a few gunfights and there you have it! Great read!
This one was cute. I enjoyed the bond and connection they had. I think that the ending kept this book from getting a 4 star. I get it but.....you don't be hard core all in and then just.... Not when she was okay with you. Trying not to spoil it.
Enjoyed the three books but felt the end was a bit rushed. Could do with working on the finish. Great story and good characters , would have liked to have had them more developed. But a good read
I stop reading at the beginning of chapter 18 I just couldn't get over the question of how in the world she got pregnant ? Was the condom old or did it break? What? I did like the story in the beginning but then i lost the mood and couldn't finish.
The storyline was okay I wished it was more dialogue between the two main characters. In the aftermath of things I felt like the story was incomplete. 2.5 stars
