The Bratva #2
Take Me Under
It might be dark, but she wanted him to take her under…
Alexa knows loving a member of the Bratva—the Russian Mafia—is dangerous. But what she feels for Yvgeny goes against all common sense. She knows the one drunken night they shared was it, but still she wants to flirt with danger—she wants to be with him.
Yvgeny knows all too well love is not in the cards for him. The life he leads is too violent, and taking Alexa as his would mean she’s constantly put in danger.
But he wants her, God, he wants her.
When Alexa is compromised, Yvgeny doesn’t think twice about drawing blood and taking lives to avenge her. It’s then he knows keeping her at a distance was wrong. Now he’ll show her what it means to be his, and that he isn’t the worst mistake she’ll ever make.

5 stars---Gritty and sexy quick read! Heroine, Alexa works for the dark but very protective hero, Yvgeny who owns a club and also is a member of the Bratva. One night both were intoxicated and slept together. They both tried to forget that dazed night but couldn't.
Alexa loved Yvgeny no matter who he was or who he killed and Yvgeny loved his Alexa but didn't want her to be hurt while being apart of his dangerous life. Things change quick when a member of the Bratva tries to manhandle Alexa till Yvgeny steps in, protects her and claims his woman for good! That is not the end either!
Read "Take Me Under", book 2 of The Bratva Series and see why to me , it was another gripping story by one of my go to authors, Jenika Snow!

This is the second book in the series and just as enjoyable and entertaining as the first book. I loved it. Definitely can’t wait for book 3.

Book 2 in The Bratva series and it was just as good as the first. This was Alexa and Yvengy’s story. They chemistry and attraction between them was intense. They have already spent one night together but that was all. That one night was just that, one night so she kept how she was feeling inside even though she wanted more. Turns out Yvengy wanted more as well. The issue was that he was Bratva, he lived and breathed that life. He didn’t want to bring her into that life. So, neither of them acted on their feelings until seeing her being touched by another man made him realize what he had to lose. He couldn’t stand another man touching what was his. Once he touched her again, it was explosive. Loved seeing them get together. Even though they were from different backgrounds, their love didn’t care. Fast paced read that will suck you in from page one. Loved it.

3.5⭐
We finally get their story!!! Woo woo short and alittle dramaish.
Now they had a drunken night together and Alexa thinks Yvgeny doesn't remember but he does he is pushing her away not wanting her to get hurt in this life style. But he still keeps her close by sending kinda mixed signals.
But he shakes it off and goes after his woman not giving a rats ass he is going to keep her safe and sound..
We also get another couple... that seems interesting since he is a higher boss ;)
No ow drama & om dramaz, no cheating, slight secondary chara, drama, sexy times, no virgins
Recommend- maybe
Cover-⭐⭐⭐
Prologue
Slowish-insta
Push/pull from H
Slight separation (few weeks)
No condoms
Almost sexually assaulted
Torture
Hea
Epilogue

This may have been a short book but it was packed full of hotness. Yvgeny and Alex have one night together and while she wants more, he sort of pushes her away because of the life he lives. When something happens to her, Yvgeny realizes that he doesn't care anymore and she is going to be his.

This is the second book in the Bratva series by Jenika Snow and I was dying for Alexa and Yvengy's book since I read Give Me More. Alexa is Zoey's (Give Me More) older sister and she's so happy that Zoey is finally safe from her abusive ex and that she has Sergei to take care of her. Alexa helps run the nightclub owned by Yvengy who she also happens to be in love with. They shared one night of drunken sex and after that he avoided talking about it but he loves her too he just doesn't want anything to happen to her because of his lifestyle. I loved both of these characters and I'm glad it didn't take them too long to finally get together. I hope there's gonna be a book about Alexandr and I can't remember her name.

Yvgeny and Alexa are fire together. I swooned at his protectiveness and possessiveness. This moves quickly but it's dirty, sweet, and with danger to get you sucked in from the beginning. (less)

Another sexy Bratva Tale
This is Alexa and Yvgeny's story, Yvgeny finally decides he can't stay away from Alexa any longer regardless of the danger she might be in due to his being a high level mob boss. But they come to find out danger doesn't have to come from just the mob. I only got tired of the reiteration of her being his, other than that, I'd definitely be on board with having my own Bratva man!

This was truly a great book and I could not put it down. It was passionate, suspenseful, dark and emotional. The fear of what could happen to anyone.. this was really a great book and I want more of these Bratva dangerous men.
Alexa is the light to Yvgeny's dark. Both secretly in love with the other but neither make a move until after one night of drinking. Yvgeny knows he loves Alexa and will do everything and anything to protect her.

Alexa
This was another short and dirty love story about the Russian mob. Alexa and Ygenvy finally come together, and we get a peek at another couple.

I don't know if this is the fault of the publishing company but the formatting of her books have changed into a 3rd party read. I'd rather she went back to the first person.

This is the first book that I have read about the Russian Bratva. It was okay.
March 21, 2022
I thought that this was a pretty good book. I really liked Alexa and Yvgeny together with the intense connection and chemistry between these two. Yvgeny and Alexa have been in love with each other but Yvgeny won’t go for Alexa because of his life and Alexa possible not accepting all of him or her getting hurt because of him. Alexa loves Yvgeny exactly as he is and won’t take him any other way. I enjoyed this book and I would recommend it.
I received a free e-book copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Alexa works for Yvgeny who is one of the top men in the Bratva, the Russian mafia. Alexa has loved Yvgeny for a while but doesn't want to rock the boat in their working relationship. Yvgeny can't get Alexa out of his mind especially the time when Alexa and Yvgeny were both drunk and had slept together. Yvgeny will protect Alexa at all cost especially when she has been drugged by a man at the club she is at with a friend. There are hot scenes in this book that will leave the reader wanting more. This is book #2 of "The Bratva" series. Enjoy!

Finally, Alexa finds her happy ending. She has known Yvgeny for a while. One drunk night and it seemed like a dream. Neither one wanted to say anything about it. These two have passion hidden. It took Aleczander coming to America to make him open his eyes and heart. The love these two have for each other is hot. He is as protective as Sergei. Both sisters have finally found love. Even those with the darkest soul can find light. I was so happy when they finally expressed their love. I hope we find out more about Veilisa and Alec. You know there is a hot story there too

A short read but so worth the read. A Bratva man who loves the heroine so much he stays away to keep her safe.🙌 👏❤❤

Love those Bratva men
I love this book every bit as much as the first. Alexa and Yvgeny are made for each other. He would do anything to keep her safe from anyone and anything, including his Bratva way of life. The only thing that I want to know is how do you pronounce his name ?? Lol. No really. Great read Jenika Snow. Hoping for number three.
