Book excerpt: The mafia life is a dangerous one revolving around honor, duty, and greed—a troublesome thing like love isn’t meant to play a part, but no one follows the rules. Surrounded by men waiting for the Russian mob boss to show weakness, Anton Avdonin should have known showering affection so openly on his new bride wasn’t a good idea. Of course, that didn’t stop him. When Anton’s wife begins attracting unwanted attention from an unknown source, he’s determined to find out just who is playing the risky game and put a stop to it by whatever means necessary. From a Cosa Nostra princess to a Bratva queen, Viviana “Vine” Avdonin was made for the life. Pregnant, safe, and loved, she’s more than happy to move on from the history that haunts her to start out fresh. Then again, someone else has other plans. Old rivals from the past and bad blood from the present have mixed in the worst way, threatening to take away the things Viviana loves the very most. No matter what, she can’t let that happen. Both Viviana and Anton know there’s only one way this can all end and it’s up to them to do it. But, who is behind the veiled threats and personal attacks, and how far are they willing to go to get what they want? When the truth finally surfaces, the consequences will be devastating and no one could have seen it coming. In a life where everybody plays for keeps and no one fights fair, one mistake might cost them everything. Sequel to The Arrangement The Russian Guns, Book Two *Please Note: The Life is not a standalone title. The first book in The Russian Guns series (The Arrangement) should be read before the second book*

Book excerpt: A Russian boss. An Italian Princess. The truth of their union would change everything ... The Arrangement * Nothing will stop the Bratva mob boss from taking back what’s his and once he has her, he’ll do anything to keep her. Viviana “Vine” Carducci’s and Anton Avdonin’s marriage was decided over two decades ago. The deal between leading mafia families had more on the line than anyone knew, even if the Bratva and Cosa Nostra shouldn’t have mixed. When Vine’s family is murdered and she’s left with nothing more than her grief to survive the mob world alone, she believes the arrangement won’t see the light of day. Anton can’t allow the one woman he was supposed to love get away. At the possibility of her life coming to a quick end, he steps in with guns blazing knowing exactly what it might cost him: everything. But it’s been nearly a decade since their last meeting, and he can’t help but wonder if the woman he took back is the same girl he fell for all those years before. Under his protection and love, Vine is unable to forget their shared moments a lifetime ago, or the future she knows they’re owed. When an old flame of Anton’s shows up to rip the veil off the carefully constructed secrets he’d been hiding, past lies surface, and Vine might just learn that nothing about her life was as it seemed. But, that’s nothing compared to the bomb about to blow. Can she see beyond the pain and blood it to take what she always wanted? And just how far will the mob prince go to keep her safe? In a world where violence, deceit, and greed reign, your life is not your own, and sometimes, love has to be arranged. Book 1 of The Russian Guns

However, some people aren't happy with that decision. Boris Kamanev believes that being at the head of the Mafia must be for merit, not something passed from father to son. And he will do anything to defeat Dmitri and take his place. Kyara Smirnov lost her parents as a child and was raised by the Kamanev family. Her dream is to complete the majority and leave the Bratva; This is not her world. One had the mafia as an extension of itself; the other saw the mafia as an instrument of oppression, and she was thrown into a war she didn't want. And in the struggle for power, strangely it is the overwhelming and unexpected love that dictates the rules ... for good and for evil.

Book excerpt: The conclusion to this riveting dark Mafia series. Zafira Guzun The Guzun Matriarch, or Comare, as everyone in the Bratva world called me. A name I earned as the wife of one of the most respected Bratva leaders ever. After his death, I stepped back, preferring to leave the hard decisions to my children… or so everyone thought. Betrayal is a hard pill to swallow. This time, it turned sideways in my throat. Now, I’m being suffocated by those I loved and trusted unconditionally. No more… It is time they suffered the consequences. Bogdan Rusu The ubiytsa smerti or the death slayer, as everyone in the Bratva called me. A moniker I earned as the advisor to the Pakhan of the Guzun Bratva. I’m respected because I’m a nice guy… but I’m feared more because I have no mercy. Keeping Zafira Guzun safe has been my priority since her husband passed away. It hasn’t been easy, especially since she meant more to me than being my boss. She was my heart… except she didn’t trust me, and that hurt… deeply. In the end, only one thing mattered… Who needs to forgive, and who needs to make amends… or will pride and hard-headedness be their undoing? Note: Although the blurb is in 1st POV, the book is written in 3rd POV. This series must be read in order because if you thought you knew how it’s going to end... you’re wrong.

Book excerpt: Arian, named the Godfather of the EU Bratvas, believed in equality… of power and responsibility. Arian, Vadim, and Vanya, leaders of the Guzun Bratva, ruled Moldova as a team. Arian Guzun I don’t live with regrets, no matter how many scatter the road I have walked. Shit happens, I accept it and move on. Except when it comes to the Family. For my mother and siblings I will kill, and as the Pakhan of the Guzun Bratva, I am the devil incarnate. Now, I stand at a crossroad. The woman who broke my heart ten years ago needs my help. Let me set the record straight. I don’t love her, nor do I hate her, so don’t expect a happily ever after once I find her. The conundrum I am facing is whether I want to help her, no matter that I feel obligated to do so. Izolda Sidorov The choices you make in life define the person you are. Whoever said that should come talk to me. For the past ten years I lived in a prison of my own making—because the choices I was given forced me to make a decision I have regretted ever since. Now prison has become my reality. God knows, I don’t want to die in this shithole. There is only one man who can save me… but he hates me, so I’m doomed—death is lurking at every corner, waiting…. Amidst a battle to retain their position as one of the most feared and successful Bratva Groups in the EU, Arian is forced to face the biggest challenge yet. Trust… and the thin line that is stretching it to snap between a man he loved like a brother and survival in a bloodied Mafia war about to erupt. Will he come to live with regret after all? PLEASE NOTE: Although the blurb is in first person, the book is written in third person. This series should be read in order.
