Loving the Bravta Boss
Pavlo is a Bravta boss trying to clean up and turn the organization legit that his father's roughly ran.
Devany is a waitress at a night club that she doesn't like working at but is working so she can pay for college and she's also the daughter of a judge with a gambling problem.
It starts out with Pavlo wanting Devany's father on his payroll but the moment he saw her picture he falls in love with her.

Loved It
This was awesome, I love books about strong Alpha Males, and this didn't disappoint. Paul/Pavlo the Bratva Boss has found the person he needs to get the judge on his payroll. The judges daughter Devany. Before he can put his plan into action someone tries to kidnap Devany. This story has attempted kidnapping, attempted murder, murder, and torture. But it does end with an HEA. Kudos to the author👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

New Life
Pavlo was born into a Bratva family and learned how to be a criminal almost before he could read. He suspects that his father may have killed his mother but he has no proof. With his father dead, he is running the business with as much honor as he can. He decides to “buy” a judge in case he needs one in the future. He selects Devany’s father not realizing that once he sees her picture that his plan AND his life are going to change. He has an unknown enemy and his interest in Devany puts her in danger. Pavlo has been silently watching her at work and when he intervenes when she is accosted by a nasty customer he shows his enemy that she matters. What follows is a rollercoaster ride of violence and bloody action as the enemy increases his push to destroy Pavlo. I liked both characters...Pavlo had done a lot of bad things but he was a good man. Devany was feisty and strong...they made a great couple. His right hand man Owen was awesome......funny, handsome and brutal. Not many of these type stories end with the couple OUT of the violent life style. The epilogue was wonderful....tying up loose ends and showing a positive life outside the Bratva. Great book, Ms. Brooks!

Well !!!
This book took me totally by surprise, but in a really good way.. I loved how Owen and Palvo had and easy brotherly back and forth banner. If Palvo had his way he would have shot Owen so many times for his smart mouth .(Lol) I was hoping that Owen would have left with palvo and Devany. The part that gets me tho is what did they tell devany parents about his name change and why he left .Oh well I guess some answers we will never know but I'm glad that deviant was palvo heart and not his pass.

This was a pretty good read! I liked the action (mafia) in the story as well as the mystery in finding out who the villian actually was that was causing so much trouble. This is the first book that I have read by Izabella Brooks and I hope to read more by her. I am glad that Pavlos and Devany got their HEA even though she frustrated me a little at the beginning with her immature behavior but she finally got a "clue" about her man!

Nice Read
This was a pretty good read. At first I didn't think it would be good but it gets better as you read. The hardcore boss and the shy girl. I am still confused why her father was in the read but never says if they were after her because of him. But in the end he turns good and leave the business to his right hand man and start over as a good guy. There were a few misspelled words but not many.

Fail
This book fail way too short!!! The main female character got on my last nerve!!! Nothing about this book was good. Man kills 2 guys to save her life. She calls him a devil for saving her life but she puts her butt in the air to have sex with him. I mean literally put her butt in the air!!! This book was just awkward and wrong.
