Oh wow! If you like mafia style romance books, you really need to get this one. Dimitri may be a bad guy to others but to the ones loyal to him, he's great! And when he sets eyes on Scarlett, that's it for him. Scarlett has been protected by her brothers and her parents all her life and has no intentions of settling down with anyone they pick for her. She can take care of herself. When the two of them get together, it's heaven. But there is someone who has his eyes on taking everything away from Dimitri, including the woman who means everything to him. Who is it and will he be able to save her in time? This was a fast read and totally sucked me into the story. It was hot, steamy and sexy!! The passion between Dimitri and Scarlett is obvious even though she tries to resist him for a long time. I really do want to see more stories in this series and can't wait for Vincent's story. It sounds like it could be VERY interesting!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Dimitri and Scarlett in this new series from April Zyon. Dimitri is used to getting who and what he wants and Scarlett will be no different....or will she? Dimitri and Scarlett are so different. Scarlett has been protected and Dimitri is quite familiar with the underbelly of vice. But together they work. I love that Ms. Zyon gave Dimitri someone who can show him the good in himself and people as a whole. I love that Scarlett has someone who can see all of who she is and will be. This story is well written and full of unexpected twists which I thoroughly enjoyed. I look forward to returning to this world Ms. Zyon is building.

I love love loved this book! It's short, but well written. I love the instant chemistry between the two, and the scene at the party was incredibly hot. This book is great if you like possessive alpha males like I do. The ending will catch you off guard, a perfect ending that keeps you on the edge! I will be keeping my eye out for the next April Zyon book!

Absolutely enjoyed it. If you’re looking for a bad boy mob boss than you’ve found your man. Cold as ice except for that one lucky woman. The heat, the passion and the unrestrained violence. It’s all here.

4.5 Stars
Scarlett is one of the only daughters in the Vanderwall bloodline, she is precious and very protected.
Dimitri Dudikov is head of the Russian Mob and is used to getting what he wants. But this time he will need to do more than take, he will need to fight for the woman he knows is his!!
Dimitri is the first book in the East Coast Bad Boys and packs one hell of a punch. Death is part of his world, but when betrayal comes from within and targets want he cherishes most their will be no end to what Dimitri will do to get Scarlett back.
Great read and one I will be recommending
