Dark Contemporary Mafia Romance (Open Door, Explicit) — possessive, consensual power play · The Tarasov Bratva

Mine to Bury

He was sent to make her disappear. He decided to burn his whole kingdom down instead.

Mara Voss saw the wrong thing on the wrong night—one bullet, one body, one enforcer who should have killed her at the scene. Instead she is driven into the mountains and locked in a snowbound safehouse with Ilya Tarasov, the pakhan's most reliable weapon, to be held until the family decides whether she lives. For three days the small heat of one shared room does its quiet work: she stops flinching when he moves, he stops pretending she is only cargo, and the wall between guard and prisoner thins to nothing.

Then the order comes on his encrypted phone. Make the witness vanish. And in the space of one held breath, twenty years of loyalty stop outweighing the one clean thing he refuses to give back.

He lies to his bosses. He buys her another day, and another. But the Bratva reads his silence for exactly what it is, and the men who used to answer to Ilya are already coming up the single mountain road to collect them both. So he turns every lethal thing he ever was outward against his own family—and Mara, who was never the frightened woman they thought they caught, picks up a weapon and stands at his side.

A dark, snowbound Bratva novella: forced proximity, a lethal antihero undone by the one woman he won't let anyone touch, and a heroine who walks in a prisoner and walks out his equal. Explicit. Possessive. Guaranteed HEA.

A steamy, one-sitting read perfect for fans of Anna Zaires and Nicole Fox.
