Shotgun Wedding
Kat
My father's marrying me off to the Russian mob.
But is it still a shotgun wedding…if I used to be in love with the groom?
Growing up, Gray Petrokov was my closest friend and confidant.
Then he left town and broke my heart into a million pieces.
Now he's back and waiting for me at the altar.
But Gray's transformed into a tattooed hitman with a cocky smile, a dirty mouth, and the biggest, um, gun I've ever seen. I'd be crazy to still be in love with him. I'm not the kind of girl who takes orders, even from a Bratva boss.
Even when I'm carrying his secret baby.
So, I'm planning on being a runaway bride.
But what will I do if he catches me?
Gray
I never wanted innocent Kat to be touched by my criminal lifestyle.
But now she's in deep. And that's all I can think of: being deep inside her.
That, and keeping us alive.
Kat was too good for me, too good for the things I've done. So I pushed her away.
Now she's caught up with the mob and I'm her only hope.
She's looking at me like I'm a killer—and she's right.
My feelings for her haven't changed. Call me crazy. Obsessed. An animal.
But if she finds out I've been lying to her…she'll run.
Now that I've had a taste of her, I'll never let her go.
I'll chase her, hunt her down, claim her as mine.
No matter what.
Shotgun Wedding is a standalone romance novel with no cliffhangers and no cheating, but one seriously bossy, seriously big Bratva hitman. Due to the tattooed guy's dirty mouth and dirty deeds, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

3.75 stars. I liked H much more than h. H not only was h's best friend when they were teenagers but also saved her when her father was indebt to the mob boss.
He may be bossy, didn't express his love to h right away, but he did explain what danger h may be in if she didn't go out with bodyguard, but h constantly reject it, refused to answer his phone, even complain all the time, really immarure and annoyed.
Besides h's annoying behavior, this story was Ok.

I had no expectation on this book at all. This is a wonderful story about a mafia "enforcer" who goes the extra mile to protect the woman he has always loved from the bad elements in her community. Now the hero does things in order to protect her that are very questionable but all in all he was looking out for her. He marries her in order to protect her and because he loves her like crazy. Always has! He then tries to take down his crime family. This is where we get a lot of the action. We get a kidnapping and there is sex slavery discussed in this book that makes for an uncomfortable read. I can't understand how he was a part of all that but there you go that's the story. I loved it and even the epilogue was cute.
Keeper for me.
Please note that his past is not explained much but I can only assume he slept with others. His sex history is very sketchy. It's open to interpretation. She is a total innocent. They grew up together. 4.5 stars

Personal Review:
This was a good romance between childhood friends who reunite and had to wed or die.
Random Ramblings:
•The story went downhill for me when the h started to drink heavily and was acting immaturely. I was getting angry on Gray’s behalf!

4 shotgun stars!!
I’m a sucker for all things mafia/mob! So I was thrilled when this book landed on my kindle! I loved the whole premise of the book, it’s a unique storyline. At least not one I’ve read yet. And I fell in love with the darkly, hot Gray! His relationship with Kat is steamy in all the right spots and romantic in all the others!! I really couldn’t put this book down while I read! If you love mafia/mob books then I’d definitely say this is the book for you!

I freaking loved this book!
Kat's huge, sexy, alpha male, Gray Petrokov, a mafia bad-ass up and forces an impossible decision. Little did Kat know Gray has loved her from a distance he created only to protect her from his dangerous lifestyle while Kat felt he had left her abandoned all the time when she loved him madly. Now he forced her into a one possible solution decision for Kat. She must either marry Gray right now or choose to say no and the head of the mafia will kill her father and possibly her too. However, Kat is told by Gray that if she married him right now Gray will keep her safe!
Kat doesn't grasp the seriousness of the situation regarding her own safety after she says I do and she puts herself in jeopardy by insisting on defying Gray and showing up at the bar her family has run for decades. She soon finds out that Gray talked his boss into giving her to him rather than another male in the mafia who is now furious with Gray and bent on having what he believes was his girl to use sexually.
The story builds around the conflict between the two, the simmering, longstanding relationship between the two and the choices Gray will need to make to feel he deserves her love. It is a tense, passionate and frequently harrowing tale that will keep you turning pages, gripping your seat with white knuckles and hoping against hope that this love will somehow work out.
I highly recommend reading this book because it is an excellent story with a fierce love that will have you flipping pages until the end, so make sure to have the time to read straight through!

March 2, 2020The editing was lacking. The convos were childish. The h was indecisive. I reached half of the book but the action was pretty much non existent and there was just childish bickering and that was tiring. I grew bored and decided to just stop reading.

Kat was super-annoying tbh. All Gray wanted was to help and protect her and she just had to put on a fight

Unselfish Love
This book shows well sacrifices of unselfish love. How when you are betrayed by family you are saved by someone you least expected to ever see again. I loved that no matter what Gray was doing or what was happening in his life his love for Kat never stopped neither did hers. You get to know Gray & Kat and the passion was allowed to build, which was very hot and full of steam. Which worked well for this storyline. Gray & Kat got their HEA. I hope Gray & Kat's friends, Elle & Chase will get their own book. They were unforgettable characters and added to the story. I would recommend reading this book and others that may follow.

I read this book after receiving a copy of the book after it, because it kept talking about their story! For a Russian mobster, Gray is a sweetie and totally deserved his HEA.

I received this book for free to give my True and Honest Review
My oh my Natasha and Ali this was excellent you HAD ME GRIPPED
I loved this love come gangster story between the ONE TRUE LOVES of Kat/Katya and Grey but oh what a stupid man to do what MEN are known for by 'running' away though ALWAYS watching over her for those 7 yrs, except for the quick fleeting commentary about that area.
I loved all the heated up tension and denial between these 2 childhood friends who desperately loved each other WITHOUT opening their mouths things could've been so much doesn't.
We see here that as soon as Grey heard that Kat's Dad is in dire straits with the Russian Mafia who he's been working for during this time abs that's why he kept away so Katya wouldn't have ANY dealings with it and him and he was nearly there after he gave himself to the 'Family' to save his father and now he's done to save Kat from marrying this violent disgusting shitface of a man and Katya is no-one else's but his. And oh WAS SHE his alright as SHE waited for him to come back for her like happened.
That's me shutting up for now go and get this fantastic book not just about love but about honesty (well that's my point of view & you'll see what I mean) & doing the slime ball job of what The Mafia are well known for but JUST NOT telling her the truth about what he was doing & what he wants now he's back in her life....
HOT AND HEATED IN A FEW WAYS

Kat and Gray were best friends growing up and both suffered at the hands of abusive fathers. Gray left seven years ago and promised he'd come back and get Kat. He never did. Gray joined the mafia in order to save his father's life, but has watched Kat from a distance in hopes of keeping her safe. Gray knew the life he ended up living was not good enough for Kat so he stayed away. Now Kat's father is in trouble and is offering up Kat's hand in marriage as payment. Gray will not allow anyone else to marry Kat and will protect her even if she ends up hating him.
I genuinely liked Gray's character and could tell how much he loved Kat. He suffered through the years and missed her terribly, but he honestly felt he was doing the right thing. Kat I didn't care for at all. She's bitchy and whiney and doesn't appreciate what Gray saved her from by marrying her. Kat wasn't stupid when it came to the mafia and she knew how dangerous they were. Yet she repeatedly chose to ignore Gray's requests to stay somewhere he could keep her safe. Not once did Gray give her a reason not to trust him, and over and over she'd go somewhere and he'd have to save her. I HATE hardheaded heroines who stomp their feet and shout about not being bossed around and told what to do when their lives are clearly in danger.
Overall, I give Gray 5 stars and Kat 3. Shotgun Wedding is told from dual POVs and does have a happy ending with an epilogue.

This is a intriguing and fascinating book to read, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, the opening chapter caught my attention and kept it til the last page was turned. What you will find in this book is drama, intrigue, suspense, action, a feisty spitfire of a woman and unwilling bride ( Katherine O'Malley aka Kat), the groom who is a assassin and member of the Russian mafia (Greyson Sergei Petrokov aka Grey), a uncaring father offering his daughter (Kat) as a trade for debt, the boss of the Russian mafia (Viktors Solonik), a brigadier of his (Grigor Markov) who wants Kat, , drugs, sex trafficking, brothels, Russian mafia, an arrange marriage, betrayal, ultimatum, memories, married, biding time, making plans to escape, a kiss, locked in, a meeting, a bar, talking, text messages, a angry husband, home, punishment, a spanking, going to fathers bar, assaulted, a fight, home, a friend help, intimacy, insults, a pregnancy, finding her hidden passport, a wounded man, abducted, FBI, gun blazing, rescued, a fathers death, a legitimate business, lust, emotional feelings, love and erotic scenes. The story-line and plot is well thought out and is exceptionally well written. The characters are well developed with personalities and have feelings of lust, needs and desires. I would recommend this book to people that like to read a well written, entertaining Bad Boy Mafia Romance with a HEA. You will not be disappointed in this book.

This book was definitely one of the best books I have read all year. If I could I would give it 10 stars or more because i liked it so much. There were many reasons why I liked the book. The first one was I loved the main characters (Kat and Gray) chemistry, he was cocky demanding, and an arrogant bastard, she was stubborn and proud, but they fit well as a couple. The second reason I liked this book was because of their background and future together, 7 years ago she was 17 yrs old and he was 22 yrs old and they secretly liked each other while just being friends at the moment and going through a rough time (all i will mention about that) the he left her to join the russian mafia/mob and they didn't talk or see each other for 7 years. Until her father sold her to be married to a russian mafia man who turned out to be Gray. The third reason I love this book is because it is the best mafia/mob story i have read so far. The fourth reason this book was so great was because of their shotgun wedding and not to mention the sex was great between them. The fifth reason i like this book is because of the secret baby they end up having. The sixth reason I like this book is because of the kidnapping of Kat and her baby and Gray coming to rescue her and all the action that goes on in that scene. The last reason I like this book is because of the Epilogue. If you like mafia/mob books great chemistry between the two main characters and secret babies, then you will love this book.

I ended up reading Dirty Chase before this one.. And I have to say it didn't matter. Which is a good thing :) I loved this book all on its own.. Kat and Gray have loved each other for years, but never telling each other.
This is a fast pass and wonderful book.. LOVED IT

*** Received a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review ***
The story built really nicely and had a great flow and characters. This is the story of Gray and Kat, who was each other childhood protector even through teen years. Gray lefted to join the mafia as payment for his devilish father debts for seven years with Viktor Solonik and broke Kat's heart.He came up in the organization and became an assassin for his ruthless boss and known as the Ghost. Kat had always thought Gray was in New York and very naïveté to her father dealings, which landed her in deep trouble. She can see a different in her friend (Gray) the moment he rescue her from trying to unsuccessfully escape through the bathroom window. Kat father offered her and his restaurant to Gray's boss (Viktor) as payment for his screwed up dealing. Gray didn't want Kat to be involved in his criminal lifestyle but was necessary to keep her alive. The storyline was amazingly written with wildly twists and turns that I loved. I hope we have a chance to read more about others in this book.

Received this complimentary arc copy from the author for an honest review
Gray and Kat, childhood friends, neighbours, sweethearts maybe, have always looked after one another. Then when they get older, he goes away, not telling her, just disappears for 7 years. Poor Kat. Years later he appears but not as she expected. To be married off to him, no explanation, just for her safety's safe.
A story of Gray and Kat, thrown together due to circumstances. Lots of secrets, lies, deception, danger, but secret love, lust, hopes, dreams and wishing for things that may not happen. The main thing in all this is that Gray does genuinely love Kat and wants to protect her.
I really enjoyed this story and the relationship between Kat and her friend is really funny at times. Lots on intrigue and scary moments too. Loved it all
Well worth the read

****received a copy for my honest review****
This was a solid story. Gray and Kat haven't seen each other in seven years. They were best friends growing up. She is forced to marry Gray or her father will be killed.
I loved how Kat didn't back down from Gray. Didn't just give him all control right away. She stood her ground. She wanted answers. Gray just wanted to protect her, he was a serious alpha. When he confessed his feelings for her, your heart melted a bit.
My only gripe on this was we didn't get to see why he left her. The reason was never really told to us. Just what was told to her, so she never confronted him with it.

Gray & Kat share a history. Both dealt a shitty life, fending for there wellbeings and looking out for one another.
Declarations of hope, running towards a better future.
One day gone, without a word, leaving her to pick up the shambles called her life.
For a second time her life's uprooted when she has to pay the piper for her dad's addictive dealings.
Kidnapped to marry the man of her dreams may not be so bad. Everything that's happened has led to this point.
Blood will be shed, secrets revealed, relationships tested.... Will it all be for nothing?

Mafia romances are the best.
I honestly didnt have any expectations from this book but it turned out so effing good.
I will admit that there were SO MANY spelling mistakes and grammatical mistakes and at one point Gray's name was even changed.
But overlooking that,there was so much potential.
Solid storyline.
No lame or sudden or sudden or unexplained emotions.
Yes some moments were eye rolling but hey at the end,it was still 5 stars!!

I really liked Gray and Kat. Gray is stuck in the Mafia because of his father. Just when he sees a light at the end of the tunnel his old friend and crush is shoved into the middle of the Mafia by her father. He agrees to new terms and that includes marriage to Kat. Kat was a very no-nonsense kind of girl. She didn't just hide behind Gray and hide away. She gave as good as she got. It was a great read, would definitely recommend.

i really like this book, mafia guy saves the girl from a bad fate, married her at his boss request. at the same time he is plotting to keep her safe. Its a simple read you could ave with a quiet cupper. Its well written and i liked how it flows. Would liked a bit more content and length, however its a worthy 4 star read.

I just love Russian Mafia romance novels, and this is one of those that you just cannot put down until you have read the last sentence.
Oh my goodness I just loved Gray, he is so handsome and a real gentleman. He treated Kat like a princess.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a good Russian Mafia romance.

Great read
This was a great bad boy romance. Katya has not seen Gray in seven years and suddenly she is standing next to him in church and getting married. If you like strong, tattooed Russian men and independent and sassy women you will love this book.
I really hope there is another book as I want to know what happens between Chase and Elle please.
